Knife sharpening is an art, it’s beautiful. Definitely an underrated art in the world.

[@Errcyco]

Most definitely, I’m so awful at it it has put a haunt on me buying knives til I can figure out how to sharpen the six I bought this year already 😪🤧

[@BrandonGavin_EDC]

@@Errcyco keep at it man. I bought a pocket sharpener from work sharp. Watched Jerads videos. Started with my cheapest knife to learn on and moved up. It’s not that bad just keep trying.

[@GerstBladeworks]

@@Errcyco yeah, what he said ☝️, it's a skill that can only be honed (pun unintentional lol) with hours of practice. Sharpening by hand without a guided system is how I do it because I have been sharpening for years and honestly, I look for excuses to sharpen most days, it's very therapeutic to me and a nice stress reliever/engaging activity if you like that sort of thing. Keep at it and you will be a master in no time.

[@tmurray1972]

This is definitely my “grail” sharpening system, the PRO one.

[@KarlBAndersen]

Using the stone to set that gap makes absolutely no sense to me. You set the angle and then AFTER that you change it when creating the gap. Why?

[@koleouellette295]

Do you prefer the TSPROF Kadet or the TSPROF Blitz?

[@dale1468]

Pro tip. Before mounting the first stone and setting the angle, set the height of the stone height adjuster using the first stone.

[@stevenetram]

For the price of one of these this thing should sharpen the knife on its own. I don't care how sharp it gets. $700 is a lot of money when you can learn how to sharpen a knife

[@toddcarr.]

Great explanation and demonstration of a very cool sharpening system along with showing an actual sharpening vid. These systems aren't cheap but the quality looks extremely good. The recommendation of which stones to buy for it is also very helpful to those getting into sharpening as well. Thanks for the great vid Jerad and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable

[@just.some.dud3]

How do you feel about the Kadet vs the Blitz?

[@andrewjewell8209]

I would be interested to know this as well!!

Is there a difference between the Kadet and the Kadet Nero besides the obvious that the Nero is black ?

[@timbo4374]

I'd like to know that as well

[@robbysullivan1154]

The only difference in the sharpeners themselves is the black anodized finish on the Nero version. But there are different kits available at Gritomatic that also comes with upgraded stone holder along with the Nero version.

[@joetee5105]

The newest version of the Kadet has a rack and pinion angle adjustment. Have had my eye on Kadet for awhile

[@Antimatter.]

Yeah , I’m I have the Kadet Pro , It blows away this old version Jerad is using I’m very surprised he didn’t get the pro, He also put the docking holder on the wrong spot 😂

[@tomdowser]

Yeah its great for those buying new. I like where he mounted it lol.

[@Jeremy_810]

For $318 shipped with 5 diamond stones on sale, the standard Kadet seems the best value in the entire line. The pro was $100 more. At that point, it's close to K3 money. Not saying I didn't want it.... I just couldn't justify another $100 for a really cool knob.

[@Antimatter.]

@@Jeremy_810 The K3 pro is to big for what I need unless you need to do swords😂 , The Kadet is a great sharpener but the way to adjust the angle is the biggest complaint with users, So the Kadet pro came out with the knob it is much easier and effortless to find existing angles you can make very fine micro adjustments it’s worth every penny if you ask me and a pleasure use , but to each his own , that’s why they make all systems that people can afford so there’s options

[@Jeremy_810]

@@Antimatter. I can definitely see down the road wishing I had splurged on the micro adjustment. Currently, my biggest problem with the system is the 2 piece rod coming apart in use. That tiny little screw holding the 2 together needs a recess in the rod to hold on to. I haven't reached for the pliers yet but probably will before long.

[@kper5592]

Great educational video and what looks like a great sharpening system. It's way above my budget though. :(

[@davestelling]

I agree! Excellent tutorials...

[@tcj2185]

@@davestellingya’ll haven’t watched many tutorials.

[@Antimatter.]

The Kadet pro is the newest version it has an precision adjustment knob to set your angles it works awesome , I have 4 sets of clamps , 2 sets of dual clamps 1 regular(like in this vid) and 1 filet clamps (for very thin and low profile knives ) it keeps the stones from hitting the clamp, The dual clamps are better for larger knives like kitchen knives , fixed blades and large folders Then they have single clamps I recommend for pocket knives smaller blades up to 3.5 inches ,basically (KME) style clamp and they hold rock solid , With this set you can sharpen a large Kitchen knife all the way down to a small knife like what’s in Swiss Army knives

[@barkingspider2007]

Great Review... I'v been sharpening for years. Free hand, Belt grinder, KME etc. The TSPROF is my favorite. I use the Blitz 360 for pocket knives and the K03 for larger knives. The Kadet is a great middle of the road sharpener. The Blitz is sized right for smaller blades. If you are only doing pocket knives go with the Blitz. If you need to take care of kitchen knives the Kadet is a great choice. Clamp systems produce a better result for most folks than any other method.

[@haveagocommentator983]

[@Ohmed_88]

does anyone know the difference between the Kadet pro and the Blitz pro???

[@nadergt1]

If you had a choice would you go for the Kadet or the TSPROF K03 Hunter TS-K321010H ?

[@kaseycarter230]

Purchased this system about 6 months ago. Takes about 20 minutes for a full re-profiling. Rock solid, super easy and keeps a near perfect angle every time. Once a nice edge is on, it only needs touched up every couple of weeks with a strop loaded with .5 micron gunny juice. 💥

@Kasey Carter- do you have any issues clamping up full flat ground knives with the clamps provided?

[@kaseycarter230]

@@andrewjewell8209 Yes, somewhat. Example: Spyderco is a regular fixture in my pocket. I’ve found that if I only use one clamp (removing the other) and stay tight to the scales, it works fine with the appropriate speed and pressure. Even in that scenario, this has been the best system by far for myself in creating and maintaining a consistent angle and polished edge.

[@andrewjewell8209]

@@kaseycarter230 thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. The majority of my better knives are spider co with a full flat so that’s why I was curious. I know tsprof makes a special clamp for a full flat grind but I can’t seem to find them for sale.

[@robbysullivan1154]

I purchased the same sharpener from gritomatic in a black kit. It come with upgraded stone holder to hold both the dovetail style stones and on the opposite side it has a larger space to hold the Venev dual sided style stones. I cannot say how well the basic version that you have works, because I dont have one. It may very well be plenty sufficient for holding different stones. But the upgraded version does a really good job holding the Venev stones and can be purchased separately. It is worth buying for sure. Thank you for the video and for all of your valuable time and information that you share with all of us in the knife community. Have a great weekend

[@davestelling]

I wasn't aware that the TSPROF Kadet had an upgraded model. Interesting; I think I might order one, thanks...

[@timbo4374]

I've actually been thinking of buying one of these. I have a KME system, but it's old and getting kinda beat up. I also like the fact it uses 6" stones compared to the 4" stones on the kme. The only thing holding me back is the price, plus te fact that then I'd want to get a set of Venev stones for it as wel, so I'm looking at a big price tag.

[@fldiverjc4496]

Having had the kme system, this is well worth the investment. It is significantly better in every facet. Keep in mind if you are already heavily invested in kme stones, they also work very well with this system....especially if you have the beast 50 grit diamond plate to make short work of any reprofile jobs. I have had good success even using wider stones in both 4" and 6" formats. The versatility of this system blows the kme out of the water. You won't look back, that I can promise you.

[@TheBigfattuna]

Putin's invasion of Ukraine prevents me from buying this sharpener. Sorry TSP, your country needs a new dictator.

[@phillipendersby6964]

In my opinion the L adaptors are the best accessory I have for my Kadet, I think they work better than the single clamp and work with longer blades as well. Nice video thanks.

[@tgates811]

Any options on this vs a water cooled stone like a Tormek? I can get one from Jet for about the same price as this Kadet. My biggest concern is the natural hollow grind it produces and I'm not sure it will keep angle at the curve. I want to sharpen knives, chisels, and hand planes.

I just got mine a few days ago. I already have 12 working hours on it. This sharpener is a dream to use. I highly recommend it. You are right though, Veneve stones are the way to go. The TSPROF plates will do a very good job also but they do wear out quite fast.

[@brucemaidel5176]

What thickness of blade will this hold?

[@BladeLabMiami]

The angle setting seems pretty awkward with this machine. I have a Hapstone with a micro-adjuster which makes it much easier to set a very precise angle. Also, Hapstone is made in Ukraine while TS Prof is made in Russia.

[@Antimatter.]

That’s the old version he has, the new Kadet Pro has an adjustment knob to get your angles it’s night and day better

[@xdt422]

How do you keep bevel thickness uniform with a fixed angle system? Most of my knives have a thicker bevel towards the tip

[@MrEric0822]

Watch Gunny Talk videos (Scott Gunn). He talks about this. Basically, you want to clamp the knife parallel to an imaginary line from the pivot of the knife to the tip of the knife, which means you end up clamping pretty straight across the spine. Use the Sharpie and adjust accordingly. If you clamp parallel to the imaginary line from heel to tip, you will end up with a consistent angle but your bevel with widen toward the tip because the steel is thicker there. A lot depends on blade shape, but this is a good general rule.

[@zoltan4986]

Buying anything Russian right now helps the Russian economy , so (sadly) it is a moral choice to purchase .

Seperate the government from the people.

How are the more affordable brands like Lanskys? I've used the Scotts, which I don't think are even as good as the Lansky, and it was workable. Keep in mind that the biggest/hardest blade I used on on was a 3¾" M390 blade on an M4 Lionsteel. The blade I'm going to be reprofiling the edge on is only 2.9", but it's CMP M4 tool steel, which I'm told is like trying to sharpen granite. The Scotts was okay for a few things, I normally free hand but when I'm changing the bevel I want to make sure the geometry is as close to perfect as possible. I know the M4 is going to be a nightmare, but I really don't have $120+(let alone $400+) to spend on a sharpener at this time, like to be below $80 if possible. Thoughts? I'm even willing to pay someone else to sharpen the M4. Normally paying someone else would be blasphemous, but the fact that this one is so difficult, and the fact that it probably won't need to be fully sharpened again for a number of years, and by then I'll be able to handle it myself.

Do the blade clamps fit just one way on the base? If you can flip them over the screws can be replaced with thumb screws from the hardware store. No more needing a tool and you will not have the chance of bending the clamps. Black permanent marker on the edge will help you see the progress better.

I've been using the Spyderco Sharpmaker for decades, it works well for what it is and it's very portable but it's time to improve my results. I was seriously debating the TSProf vs a Wicked Edge but if the TSProf is expensive, the WE is ridiculous! I think you've sold me on the TSProf. Are there rod extensions available for larger knives or are they needed?

I’m very new to knife sharpening (just my own knives), and I know you put out a lot of videos on sharpening. I’ve watched a number of them, but I’m curious about something after watching this one. As a freehand sharpener, do you still recommend this over any of the other guided systems? I’ve heard good things about KME and the Worksharp, but this does seem to be better quality overall. I unfortunately don’t have the free time to get into hand sharpening, but would this be a good “one and done” system for someone to get consistent results?

I think I will be fine with the Kadet but I will be limited to 150mm long stones whereas with K03 you can use up to 200mm long stones. But that system is also much larger which isn't ideal for me living in an apartment.

[@taylorhickman84]

@@Cid_1 I've done 8" knives on my blitz, I would think 9" on the kadet would be no problem. For my filet knives I just have to use very light pressure and I use my finger to support the tip of the blade and prevent blunting it.

Thanks for another great video, amazing detail! Quick question, is the Atoma 140 significantly faster/coarser than the Venev 80?

[@NeevesKnives]

Yes it is much coarser, after it breaks in its still a bit coarser

[@dallastilley2925]

​@@NeevesKnives I am thinking of starting a side hustle of sharpening knives. What would be your preferred starting set up. I know you linked everything in the description. Would you get all of it or just certain things?

[@barrybueler3356]

Can I have have it

[@quintonbundy4647]

Do you prefer this over hand sharpening?

[@NeevesKnives]

Freehand will always be my number 1 but not everyone has the patience or devotion to get skilled and perfect freehand, a system like this allows you to get the most consistent professional edges, but you do have to have an understanding of Sharpening to get the most out of it

[@iLikeCrabrangoons]

Which TSPROF sharpener would you recommend for kitchen knives?

[@NeevesKnives]

This one or the Kadet Pro which is even better

[@iLikeCrabrangoons]

@@NeevesKnives do you have an opinion on the TSPROF Blitz?

[@NeevesKnives]

@@iLikeCrabrangoons I HAVE A VIDEO ON IT, ITS A GREAT SYSTEM FOR SURE. THE KADET WORKS BETTER FOR LARGER BLADES BUT THE BLITZ 360 IS STILL GREAT

[@johnschultz2757]

I am relearning the dozens of things I thought were the only way. The strop compounds, what do I need for polishing?

[@NeevesKnives]

i believe i explained that at the end or towards the end, but go into the description i have gunny juice linked. get the 9, 6, 3, 1 if your wanting to strop to a polish. you could use a stone to get to a polish then just strop with 1 mic or .25 but stropping to polish will require multiple strops and compound

[@johnschultz2757]

@@NeevesKnives thanks, you did say that, i just didn't know what the 9, 6, 3, 1 meant. Thanks again. But, that's all i didnt understand. As a former instructor in adult education, I can say that you really do a good job with it, and teaching all knowing, over educated, opinionated adults (like me) isn't easy. Great job sir. And thanks for the reply.

@@johnschultz2757 that’s the micron, or grit. The higher the micron the coarser the abrasive, with grit the lower the number the more abrasive.

Got one and am getting the best edges of any clamped system. Holds blades very solidly which makes a huge difference over lesser systems. 👍🗡️👊

[@jamesfair9751]

I really want this system. 95% of my collection is Microtech could this do the ultratechs the utx85 and the tiny utx70. Those are what I have most of and of course a couple socom bravo/elite and ludt which I’m sure those larger ones wouldn’t be a problem. I mainly want to know about the otf since they have such narrow blades

[@NeevesKnives]

yes but i would say you could also go with the tsprof blitz 360 which is linked in the description if you click tsprof amzn make sure its the 360, with this devise you would want to get the other clamps

[@jamesfair9751]

@@NeevesKnives so the 360 is better than the kadet for my needs. I do also have 4 or 5 spydercos which get used a lot more but I have something like 28 ultratechs utx85 and utx70

[@jamesfair9751]

Also I don’t see the 360 linked just the kadet and kadet Nero

[@NeevesKnives]

@@jamesfair9751 both will work but with the Kadet you will need to get the other clamps, I believe they have a kadet pro or something like that which comes with the parts you will want. But the blitz 360 would also work great for you, make sure it’s the 360. So if you get the kadet make sure it’s the upgraded, if it’s the blitz make sure it’s the 360

[@jamesfair9751]

@@NeevesKnives ok thank you so much this has been extremely helpful and my next purchase will be a blitz 360 !!!

[@paladin5133]

how would the thicker stones attach to the stone holder?

[@NeevesKnives]

With spring tension it just holds it, having a plated stone with grooves is better but will work Regardless, also they do have parts for the stone holder so you can hold both kinds of stones
