Step 1 - place the tip of the stick on a stable surface; hold the handle of the sharpener firmly in one hand and knife in the other 
Step 2 - try to match the bevel angle, place the blade on the rod and draw the knife edge down the rod (as you were attempting to slice a thin layer off); use light pressure and maintain consistent angle; maintaining consistent angle is necessary for the best results. 
Step 3 - make motion 3 - 4 times and switch to the other side of the blade´s edge and repeat until is sharp.
