Works, but not forever. And no, if these jokers were half honest they would not insist it only takes two lazy swipes to turn a seriously blunt knife into a magical sharp one. That only works if the knife was already sharp! It takes a LOT more to sharpen a blunt knife. As for sharpening 'tools', that is total bullfluff. Most likely you will wreck the sharpener, which is why they sell you two.

Excellent… Thanks for this video. I recently inherited one of these from my Dad who never used it, although his one has the name of Martek but it’s exactly the same as this. I’m guessing Martek is the old name? As he must have had it for a number years. Anyway, this instructional video is spot on, as the paper instructions with mine don’t actually tell you how to operate it and you have saved me from having to guess 👍

remember when asking to lunge, swing the rope towards the shoulder, as this is their drive point. If you swing the rope at the hind quarters, you are asking your horse to move only its hind and to face you. This is important to remember because ive seen alot of people make this mistake and blame it on the horse

O hes is a beautiful horse. Very sweet, like my big horse🙌

Gorgeous horse!❤❤❤

He seems to have the best character and is really beautiful too!

Excellent tips and advise.

If your horse is walking behind you like that and spooks, he's going to run you over! It's not about respect in that instant, it's about instinct! He's a prey animal, he's a flight animal, and a big enough scare is gonna get you ran over. He's worried about saving himself. Lol. Not u.

I like your calm demeanor .....i like the leading at the end...what do you do if they charge forward?

Mid

It works fantastic so I don't understand the hate

I don’t own a horse, Up until now have little no contact but want to learn basic concepts of release pressure unfortunately horse riding school don’t apply ground work, the schools “ style” is more about controlling you not allowing you to have the freedom to learn from ground up Your horse is beautiful sensitive clear connection I so envy hope one day to mirror thanks for sharing.💐

Do you still have replacement grinding wheels for this tool? Would you post to UK?

This product and customer service is probably one of the worst I have come across in decades. My advice if you do decide to purchase one is get in writing a money back guarantee.

I've used one of these for years with little to no success. I hate this product.

Hello @kjatkinson what did Kevin say? Lol. I have just atumbled upon this, and we have nothing like this in the UK

I have the Anysharp version of this and also a cheap one from China, they are exactly the same apart from the brand name, most times it takes between 3-6 strokes to sharpen a dull knife blade, after using a cheap low cost knife for a bit, it takes about 1-3 strokes to sharpen up to cut through a ripe tomato, there is a slight knack to how to use it, although they say there is no skill to using it, you get the feel for it after some practice and experimenting, once you have got it my goodness the results are extremely good, I would say excellent, well for cooking etc (not hair shaving) it will get any type of steel blade to cut through a tomato and slice it very thinly with ease, if it does not do this then the item is faulty and take it back to the retailer/shop/store and get a replacement or refund. I have got my entire kitchen drawer full of knifes and the ones on the three magnetic knife holders on the wall all sharp, to the point they will slice through a tomato with ease, in no more time than between 30mins to one hour. I have even put a sharp edge on the back of a single blade knife, it took me about ten minutes from scratch to do that and the knife is now like a dagger, the back of the knife will slice through a tomato like a hot knife through butter. I have tried all sorts of other sharpeners and had no luck, I can not use a stone or steel, however this device is easy to use and it is quick and fast for people that have no knowledge, skill or experience of sharpening knifes/blades. One of the demo guys said he was a butcher for 46 years, and it would take him 30 minutes to an hour to get the same sharp edge on a single knife using a stone, he said this is definitely the easiest way he's ever come across, but that was using the Anysharp version of this sharpener, he too also put a sharp edge from scratch on a drop forged carbon steel trowel in 10 minutes just to prove a point, he then sliced a tomato into very thin slices with ease. Today I have just experimented and put a sharp edge on a cutlery dinner knife in about 3-5 minutes, but it was very dull and had to take off the serrated notches as it was not a smooth knife, would have been quicker on a straight one.

I like the concept of the video, but it's difficult to concentrate on what you're saying during the portion of the video where a child is singing, which is all I can hear at that time

Thank you ♥️

Pressure motivates and release teaches

I do natural horsemanship

I want to buy, but you need to do better with your video. Edit this video without pausing/cutting out the scrubbing/wiping process, customers should be able to view the entire cleaning process.

Why the whip?!? Natural?

This could have been such a great video. I'm sorry but the toddler talking and dog barking are so annoying.

Can this be fitted on a riobi battery trimmer?

Well explained my Aussie friend. I have a farm in Dubbo NSW and thinking of buying a horse who has been mistreated. Any tips.

That's quite different from how I train natural horsemanship. When a horse walks off we always make them go in a couple tight circles so they realizes that it takes less work just to stand there. It's really effective. I think WarrickShiller does very similar training as I do. A real smart man but boy does he talk sometimes😂

I am curious about the freeze brand and its meaning. I'm not up on irons from outside the US.

why does he have a brand?

awesome skills and amazingly obedient horse

🌻

I know this comment is coming way after this video was published but I just had to say that I loved the sweet little voice in the background. It’s so hard to be a mom and everything else that everyone expects of you but your video is great!

It's nice to see a well-informed vid set in a real place - so many trainers have big perfect arenas and round pens which look brand new.

I dont understand why you dont let him be a cuddly horse? Can it be done cuddly and obedient?

You should check out +Nativhorse ... they are amazing!

I wonder if being uncomfortable with the wiggling rope is about pattern recognition of snake movement.

Anyone who says this does not work is either stupid or a liar. I have had one for two years and not only have I sharpened every decent knife in the house, I have also sharpened swords and of various types. It is so good, I let a maintenance guy borrow it in my bldg. He kept coming back to use it because he uses his knife a lot, I finally let him take it to the shop where he has his tools and when I need it, I just go pick it up until he asks me to use it again.

She knows what shes talking about but doesnt follow through? Like understands the concept but cant actually do it.

Good instructor but poor badly scared horse with markings of ownership on his body. Horses have good memory.

Brilliant , thanks.

loved the Vid!!!

why is your horse branded?

I love the kid in the background

Can you recommend some further reading? :) I'm new to this but so taken with natural horsemanship ❤

Why the hell would u call this "natural" when not only there is a whip in her hand but also the halter is not a "natural one"

All along she is allowing this horse to walk all over her. She talks about being close then allows it. The little things turn into big things. He’s responding but not standing still and giving her two eyes. Not feelin it.

Nice friend u got ; )

I would use these tips if I could actually hear them *little kid in the background*

I hope people do notice that never once did he use a blunt knife, sharpen it and cut with it IN THE SAME CAMERA ANGLE He just uses a pre-sharped one after the alleged 'sharpening'...

If the horse doesn’t respond to warning kick what should you do
