For domestic home cooks, we recommend professional sharpening every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage. Professional chefs and busy restaurant kitchens typically need it every 2 to 4 months. Regular sharpening extends the lifespan of your knives significantly and is far more cost-effective than replacing them — a new Global knife alone can cost hundreds of pounds, while sharpening costs just £7.50 per knife. It is also better for the environment.
