I would like to know and have a video from you on when and how to clean the strops and also when to add more compound…. Is it each time or only after cleaning the strops ???

Old guy here. Seems like most barbers these days use a single use razor. I miss the sound/sensation of my barber stropping the razor before s/he began the shave. Loved a nice, relaxed shave.

Yes, our sharpeners work with very small sized knives as well as large knives.

We sell a shims pack you can purchase on our website that will protect the blade or just good old masking tape on the point of contact.

The alignment guide: Once you find the angle and sweet spot of your blade, line up the alignment guide and mark where the tip of your blade is. every time you want to touch up your blade just line it back up with the guide!

Elsewhere, others indicate we should be cautious to not overtighten the clamp, to avoid damaging it.

That is correct, you just want to be able to tighten enough to keep the blade securely in place through your sharpening process.

There is some learning curve and it's definitely worth it to watch the videos a couple of times. I recommend going slowly to try and be as smooth as possible with light pressure through your first dozen knives. By then your stones will be broken in and you'll be really comfortable with it. Another good idea is to pick up some super cheap knives at a thrift store to practice on while you build confidence and technique before you start in your favorite knives.

@WickedEdgePrecisionSharpeners2 ай бұрын
Not a stupid question at all! We recommend mounting the sharpener with the cutout sitting behind the sharpener. It's simply a place to hold your Guide Rods when not in use, a marker, shims, or any little things you need regularly while sharpening!

That flange is where you can use the C-clamp to hold the sharpener to a work surface. It also has a couple of holes if you want to screw it down to a benchtop or onto a block of wood.

The dog bone shaped pocket on the optional base is for misc storage of tools, guide rods, alignment guide etc. It's just a place to keep things organized.

Why are there two depth settings for the advanced alignment guide? It seems like you open the door for error by having two different settings/depths. For a short time, I owned a previous generation WE. Now, I have the gen 4. I made several notes for different knives previously. I dont remember the previous AA Guide having two different depth settings.
@WickedEdgePrecisionSharpeners3 ай бұрын
We appreciate the feed back, we will make sure to pass it along to our development team to see if it something we can adjust in the future. The design with two settings is a carry-over from our previous jaw designs that had two depth settings. We do understand it can cause confusion and errors so we definitely look into making adjustments.

does the purity of the alcohol make a difference? I usually keep 99% isopropyl on hand for cleaning, but "rubbing" alcohol often means lower purity like 70% or 90%
@WickedEdgePrecisionSharpeners3 ай бұрын
We use the higher percentage to clean the blades themselves, but if you use a really high percentage you risk drying out the strops and causing them to shrink/peel. We usually use 90% or less on the strops to prevent this issue.

I just bought the WE40 yesterday and am stoked for it to ship. I also got the 1500/2200 and the 4/2 micron strops. Is there a real need to go to the lower strops? I assume that a 2 should be plenty sufficient.
@WickedEdgePrecisionSharpeners3 ай бұрын
The 4/2s are probably our favorite all-around strops. Unless you're chasing an absolutely perfect mirror polish, the 2 will give you a hair-popping finish on all of your blades!
@05subisti3 ай бұрын
@WickedEdgePrecisionSharpeners thank you for the reply! I definitely don't need a crazy mirror polish. The functionality is much more impotent to me, so I will run the 4/2!! Greatly appreciated. I can't wait to get my hands on it.
