I have a video of me doing that test on my channel

It's a diamond wheel, designed for this kind of use.

@@SharpeningSupplies Oh sorry my friend... I didnt stopped the video.. ​@SharpeningSupplies

you sound well versed, can you mention what this machine even is? why is it, it looks like it’s wet? i know water is good for weathering… is this like the fast version lol?

@@anthonyfontanez3969it’s a Tormek grinding machine. It uses a circular “water stone” to sharpen knives and tools. I use a “tri-stone” which has 3 oil-stones, in different “grits” on a jig-style holder. They are flat so it’s a manual set up. Most chefs use the same as I, but I am very serious about keeping my knives super-sharp so I’m always looking for the next, best, thing.

They're handy for quick touch-ups to the edge. Often they're a little more convenient than getting out your bench stones but they might be a little less accurate, give a little less of a refined edge. But if that's what you've got, it will make your knives and scissors sharper.

Good call. Would you keep it at number six, or move it up the list?

I prefer water stones to diamond in terms of feedback. Diamond resin stones do a great job of providing good feedback and fast cutting.

That's my receding hairline. Everyday it takes a little longer to wash my face.

@@SharpeningSupplies aww. Well you're gonna look great either way my dude. Thanks so much for the videos too :)

I'm pretty sure Julia puts 30 degree total on her axes.

@@SharpeningSupplies thanks

That's fair.

Thanks! We're lucky to be able to work closely with Tormek. If they want to keep giving us stuff early, I won't complain 🤣

Thanks so much!

Great observation.

Glad you liked it.

Thanks! How's the edge on your Hultafors?

@@SharpeningSupplies Incredibly sharp! I tend to spend more time on the strop now just to get a mirror polish. Just for my own pleasure. 😂🪞

Great question! Funnily enough, I did try that while playing around with the jig. No, the edge on an axe extends too far out from the Universal Support Bar. The KS-123 max knife size is 80mm tall (3 5/32"). If you've got a very small, 3"ish edge to poll axe, it might work.

Here's a few reasons off the top of my head: not all scissors are cheap scissors from Harbor Freight, throwing away blunt scissors is wasteful, some people want the skills to be able to maintain the tools they own and use.

Glad you liked it!

It's magnetic, with four angles: 15, 20, 22, and 26 degrees. Let me know if there are other specifics you want to hear about.

I'm asking these questions about this magnetic sharpener because I have quite difficulty sharpening a knife for some reason I just try and try and try and I I'm not good at it So how is this going to make it easy I've tried all different types of sharpeners before how does this one make it any better and more accurate than the ones I've tried already as far as the angle

Without knowing what you've already tried, I can't really say how this might be better. An angle guide like this will help teach you what different angles feel like during sharpening, ideally with the aim of you eventually not needing the guide and being able to sharpen at or close to a specific angle through muscle memory. But that takes time and practice.

Just buy new ones when they die yo.

Not even 60$ a piece for high quality diamond stone is expensive as hell?! Lmao Buy a high quality whetstone and they will cost you much more.

@@PM-wt3ye Stupid comparison. Whetstones and diamond stones are completely different.

@@UltraMagaFan2 What a supid answer. Why do you fail to clarify the differences, if its so obvious?! It doesnt matter if there are differences, maybe those differences make diamonds better? Lol But youre right, you cant really compare them, diamonds are far superior, they cut every type of steel, last longer, dont need any maintenance, no flattening and are also cheaper…. Just for clarification, i meant waterstones, or oilstones.

@@PM-wt3ye One is a plate of steel with a layer of resin bonded diamonds on top of it while the other is a block of aluminum oxide ceramic. It’s not that fucking hard to figure out the difference between whetstones and diamond stones. 🤦‍♂️
