Abstract:
An apparatus for maintaining culinary knifes (16), the apparatus having a handle assembly (18) formed of a handle portion (20) and a knife guide (24). An elongated tubular burnishing member (26) is connected to the bottom end of the knife guide portion. A rubber friction tip (32) is inserted into the bottom end of the tubular burnishing member. An elongated honing member (40) is also coupled to the bottom end of the handle assembly and mounted in the interior of the tubular burnishing member. The burnishing member (26) therefore performs a second function, that of being a protective sheath for the honing member.
Abstract:
A cutter head (40) having cutting blade positioning slots (50, 52) wherein a portion of the positioning slots accommodate cutting blades (42) for right-hand cutting and another portion of the positioning slots accommodate cutting blades (46) for left-hand cutting.
Abstract:
The present invention provides for a mold that can position and hold abrasive particles, which are to be electrolytically attached to an electrically conductive substrate during an electrolytic process. The mold can include an insulating material with a molding surface suitable for holding the abrasive particles in place during this process. Additionally, a method for making an abrasive tool using such a mold is provided, as well as abrasive tools made thereby. In one aspect of this invention, abrasive tools can have abrasive particle tips that are arranged in accordance with a predetermined vertical pattern and/or a predetermined horizontal pattern in a manner that requires little or no post electrodeposition processing.
