However, it is quite easy to sharpen a knife in this way. It is much more difficult to cope with the blades of a meat grinder
. It is recommended to sharpen these blades with 600 grit sandpaper. If you take a smaller grit, you will spoil the blades.

Sharpening a grater
To sharpen the blades of the grater, there are several effective ways.
You can use a ceramic dish for sharpening. The method is similar to that used for knives
. If the grater is dulled badly, then use scissors. Insert the tip of the scissors into each tooth of the grater and twist.
The grater can also be sharpened with sandpaper. It is necessary to run it over the entire surface of the grater, where there are cutters.
In the case when the three methods were not effective, it is recommended to sharpen the grater with a file. The tip of the file is inserted into each cutter and sharpened.
