I like that he can change his mind without any excuses. It's nice to see someone understand that being wrong isn't a bad thing.

[@PruneHub]

Agree. But every time I expect to see at least a little blood. The man is charmed.

[@skittlemenow]

@@PruneHub I don't know about blood but I'd like to see him eat more pickled things. There's more than just regular pickles to totrure h8imself with.

[@lordcrayzar]

Being wrong all the time isn’t great though.

[@PruneHub]

@@lordcrayzar Don't let it bother you so much.

[@tweezerjam]

He has lots of experience

[@jlogan2228]

Just a suggestion. Before sharpening the knife test it's current sharpness, then use the tool. That way it shows how well the tool does with "maintenance" THEN break out the cinder block to show how it handles a pure dull knife

[@JiggyjarjardoM77]

He does ,, just didn't this time .... lol

[@Rileygee0224]

I remember when I found your channel I thought "this is cool, I like this content but there's no way reviewing random products will get him far" boy was I wrong. Still making great content with no sign of slowing.

[@jpizzleforizzle]

I was the opposite. I thought, this dude is so dorky he's gonna make bank.

[@skarfacegaming243]

It was all them 9 volt batteries hooked together that got me 😂 i think thats how i discovered him actually

[@CloudShys]

For me I found him when he was doing the flex seal stuff 😌 glad the content has stayed somewhat the same 🤣

[@GhostFireHaze-rp7zn]

My favorite videos of tyler are definitely ones with tyler in it

[@ChristianNorge]

same

[@josephkremer415]

My favorite videos of Tyler are definitely the knife ones

[@maverickdorgan2843]

Facts

[@dillon4903]

That, and the random gadgets

[@gesarts3625]

I don't know. He seems to know what he is doing with knife sharpeners and I prefer the videos where he is clueless and just bumbles his way through a review. Either way, he is just a wholesome dude with fun videos so it's always a win win when he posts.

[@movingthrutime5760]

​@gesarts3625 knows what he's doing?! Very fun to watch BUT... He's right when he says people who sharpen knives for a living are cringing.... the way he pushes down every time he uses a knife sharpener that is not a whetstone is insane. You're supposed to pretty much let the weight of the blade do the work....very little if any extra downward force is necessary. It still may eventually do the job... but ruin the sharpener much quicker and take a lot of surface off the blade each time.. probably taking much longer to then make fine adjustments to finish off strong.

[@gesarts3625]

@@movingthrutime5760 ok, maybe saying he "knows what he is doing" was too kind, but compared to just about anything else...... he is almost competent.

[@taylorwarwick1001]

Finally a video where I can relax that nothing is going to kill Tyler. At least he knows his knives well

[@jacobkean03]

Idk Tyler with a sharp knife could get him in trouble 😂

[@brandonkinyon9753]

Hey, one of the people who sharpens knives for a living, with a pull through sharpener such as this one, you don't want to put too much pressure down as you're pulling it through, you want just enough pressure that the blade doesn't bounce around, which would give you uneven edge quality, listening to it, it sounds like you may be putting a bit too much pressure down on the knife, hope that helps!

[@brendanmulhall9095]

Ugh, every time you take out the cinder block a part of my soul dies. Good video as always, keep on doing what you do.

[@Hondaboijames28]

I absolutely love your knife sharpening videos, either your fluking it or you’ve got a hidden talent, either way keep them coming

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

Any time Tyler has a knife, you just know there's going to be a 'water bottle test'!

[@dotar9586]

And that's why he never gets invited to the steak house.

[@thesodomeister2938]

These types of sharpeners usually do create a decently keen edge, but they remove a ton of material (those metal shavings) and they also create a ton of stress in the apex. The edge they create will usually go dull very fast and also be prone to chipping. The people that use these sharpeners usually don't have strops, which makes the knife go dull even faster since these "sharpeners" usually leave a nasty burr that folds over instantly. While they can work in a pinch, your edge will only last for a few. Using the sharpener repeatedly will cut the life expectancy of your knife down to a tenth of what proper whetstone sharpening will do. Also, double edged razors are rated from 25-50 BESS. Utility razors are anywhere from 150-200.

[@jamesortiz5388]

I'm amazed they let you have sharp objects.

[@trippyhare]

I used to use the exposed ceramic ring on the bottom of my coffee mug. Works surprisingly well.

[@ohioknifelover]

Fun fact the fine side of the sharpener Tyler used is ceramic! As long as you can keep your angle consistent the ceramic mug will likely outlast the knife lol

[@mahtomedi1997]

I love watching Tyler just test products!!!!!!!!

[@inibrius5380]

Hey Tyler, you should really try the slicing edge sharpening system (with a bench grinder). Best sharpener I've ever used.

[@gamingwithpurg3anarchy157]

Tyler.. I swear you get off on rubbing a brand new knife against a cinder blocks. And it brings tears to my eyes.

[@arlingtontrains7]

He’s sooo satisfied, bless you sir!

[@JohnFleshman]

I cant decide which sounds worse the cinder block or the first stage of the sharpening process.

[@BradyDuckhornYout]

Knife videos are the best videos from Tyler tbh.

[@itstheandyfam]

Keep the videos coming Tyler bro. I've watched every video! Stay awesome

[@mockingdream02]

Hey Tyler, think you could test the sharpness of shaving razors? Like Gillette Dollar Shave Club, the generic disposable razors etc. I'd like to see which ones the best for your buck and see if all the hype is worth it and which one is truly the best

[@SwampDonkey225]

I love this idea I just used "Sensitive" Gillette razor that felt like a one blade prison razor.

[@notreallydaedalus]

Sharpest isn't necessarily best. Feather blades (made in Japan) are considered by many people to be too sharp, simply because they're not used to/able to be gentle enough with it.

[@dakotuh]

they should get tyler to do an ad for them.

[@caseymauldin8396]

Great video like always Tyler

[@CannibalShadow]

Love a Tyler video featuring knives 😂

[@Aringka]

Good to know that Amazon products don't always fail

[@thanumgaming]

You weren't rolling the tip through the sharpener at the end of each pass. That's why the tip was less sharp. Fun vid as always!

[@betterarmed]

Shows the power of a good strop really.

[@SmokingMan26]

That sigh just before the knife hit the brick lol

[@melchristian8876]

Merry Christmas to you and to your family

[@chadj780]

Hey Tyler keep up the consistent content it's what we all need right now!!!

[@vf-creed]

Tyler’s been on a role posting. Love it

[@KelvinBlessedTheBeat]

your doing a good job of cutting!

[@rorybaker5799]

The degree amount on the sharpener should match the degrees already in the blade. If you want to make the degree amount on the sharpener lower than on the blade, you will have to run the blade through many, many, many, more times than you would otherwise.

[@rorybaker5799]

Because you would not only be sharpening the edge, but shaving away the base of the edge, and bringing that base further down, if that makes sense

[@anthonyguidas2012]

Nice to see a product live up to its name 👍

[@ledgerhannan9927]

Just saw this commercial on tv! You gotta try out the reddog universal socket wrench!

[@kassemir]

I have something similar to this. Honestly, for most people it's more than enough to keep your knifes sharp without having to learn how to sharpen them using something better.

[@brandonhoffman4712]

This is not for anyone buying Japanese knives. Japanese knives are made of harder steel and sharpened to finer angles than western knives. 9-12 degrees is ideal for Japanese knives. Also the steel is so hard that ceramic isn't good for sharpening. It will wear down fast creating an unusable sharpener. Diamond, CBN, or thick natural stones which you can resurface is ideal. They hold an edge pretty well too, so once your sharp you can go a year or even 2 without sharpening again.

[@Tommy.461]

I believe that a utility blade is nowhere sharp as a razor blade. You need to get a safety razor blade and check the sharpness on your tester.

[@thesodomeister2938]

You are correct. Utility razors are 150-200 BESS. DE razors are 25-50

[@snshansen]

BEST CHANNEL ON YOU TUBE FOR THE LONGEST TIME!

[@lowrangeoverland9013]

Outstanding 💯

[@dasherpie]

Another video this made my day

[@imanassole9421]

5:35 I call BS. You just made up those numbers, don't lie. 😂😂

[@IVIrIllusion]

I feel like using the strop makes it a little unfair because anyone actually buying that kind of knife sharpener is most likely not going to have the strop

[@gaunterodimm8764]

U just buy a leather belt and use it as a strop 🤷‍♂️

[@Jakezoola]

I haven’t even watched the video yet but yes

[@FlyboyHelosim]

That's exactly what I was thinking. You can't really put the sharpness down to the sharpener alone.

[@RRIA_America]

I just use a leather belt. Works just as good.

[@kennethfahr2708]

Check out Rui Knives, sharpening with one similar to this is his gimmick

[@ratboy3827]

it's better than just ripping the edge off it angles it right it polishes the edge and hones it not just a destroyer if used right is awesome ps thanks for the videos

[@justfly60482]

Gonna use this Rambo knife.

[@cdw3663]

i bought a knife sharpener from the dollar general and surprising it work for my needs, you should test one of them out tyler to see what you think

[@davidcohen4237]

@tylertube would love to see your review of those rolling knife sharpeners by Horl or that style

[@justincornelius3670]

Love your videos

[@niner4life8]

I wish someone loved me has much as Tyler loves knife sharpners.

[@lundyman321]

Cinder block for life, idk about kitchen knives but some work knives I def have used it

[@BonderDeOtter]

peak content to watch on a boring day

[@dmiller622]

pulling too slow add more speed to your pull and use a leather strop. You can make any blade sharp as razor blade. Also you are going too slow on the sharpness test as you need to be consistent on pushing the blade. Guarantee it is around 100 and not 145.

[@cerberus1166]

almost all people i see use the sharpness tester, do it slowly. but not that slow that was a bit much haha.

[@SwampDonkey225]

They are spreading new man made viruses starting in the United States of America

[@Nodicus]

Tyler pushing down so hard on the knife during sharpening. No wonder he was getting metal shards

[@grimreaper3909]

u should test the worksharp feild sharpner

[@jessiebug8614]

Watching Tyler sharpen a knife after I sliced the tip of my thumb off on a mandolin 😂😂😂

[@carmasine]

Hello Tyler, is it possible to make tier list of products like this?

[@angryorifice3201]

I'd love to see these videos after you use a honing steel on them because they're designed to be used with a steel so you hone the edge after sharpening it I think that would take it to being absolutely razor sharp! That would be a good test

[@gamerguy4347]

Can you try pro edge+ knife sharpener from raythesharpener

[@01gtbdaily30]

The opening of this video speaks to me personally. My brother had a son 2 months ago and named him Sawyer but no matter how many times I say his name he never responds. I don’t think that his name.

[@dean5263]

Tyler do know his knifes.

[@ohheyitsjoshhinac495]

Please do more knife videos. There my favorite.

[@rhock1979]

It be interesting to see how sharp you got fan blades few weeks ago and see if you can get them sharper than brand new knives and also get them sharp again after you blunt them

[@StonesAndStrops79YT]

Also you need .to form what is called a burr its when the steel fold ove when sharpening on anything but a pull through.

[@elenastyles8794]

the knife on the cinderblock actually kills me everytime 😢

[@Sadlander2]

When you're sharpening the knife, you're applying more weight on the middle of the blade than on the edge of it. That's why it's sharper in the middle.

[@Poorjasbo]

Try the Bavarian sharpener. I found nothing like it and would love to see you try it

[@Allan8080]

Har den samme elsker den❤

[@colingladfelter9520]

Im honestly impressed. -10+ years kitchen experience.

[@Heizenberg32]

3:18 The tip of the blade tends to get more wear and damage than the rest

[@hunteredwards-hb6gn]

I would recommend Arkansas stones for sharpening, glide through paper

[@DOBBAPHOENIX]

Could you imagine how much money Tyler would make if he put an affiliate link for all the products That he tests? For instance this knife sharpener would do quite well if the price wasn't insane

[@aakashclips8781]

Can you please try the 110000 rpm mini jet fan blower

[@ThundaStrack]

Holding my breath again. Tyler makes me tighter.

[@zagnut48219]

Why I love 1095 knives.

[@MrEsphoenix]

Watched a video about these V type knife sharpness, they're awful on your blade. They completely fuck up the edge and make any chips and burrs deeper. Wouldn't bother with them for anything other than a cheap knife you don't mind replacing after a couple of years.

[@Thingsthatgopew22]

Try the Fiskars Roll-Sharp both with water or oil in the cup and without.

[@StonesAndStrops79YT]

Edge retention is better on stone if you deburred properly

[@davidrobinson6185]

how sharp was it before you dulled it on the cinderblock chunk?

[@jacob-wy1zv]

The reason it bites harder towards the handle is you’re able to put more pressure on it. Leverage

[@Mayurpaj]

Enjoyed the video. Like always. Just wanted to ask if you didn't get a sharpness chart( or whatever the technical term) with the machine. Only seen this machine used by other youtubers, and most seemed to be using it as a reference. I'm just curious.

[@cerberus1166]

he has a chart. hes just shown it plenty of times. double edge razor is 100, utility is 200, sharp kitchen knife is 300 im pretty sure.

[@Mayurpaj]

​@cerberus1166 I guess I just forgot about Tyler showing it. I blame it on overconsumption of youtube, which is my fault.

[@cerberus1166]

nah its all good. didnt mean to sound salty with the "hes just shown it plenty of times" comment if i did. meant it as a serious non sarcastic answer @@Mayurpaj

[@johnboi8346]

That’s not a razor blade that’s a Stanley blade.

[@patthompson1761]

THAT SOUND!!!!!! My ears are bleeding

[@danil-rl4zd]

i say go till its feather razor blade (de) sharp 35-15 is average for the feather brand

[@StonesAndStrops79YT]

I don't want to get into to much detail but a stone is amazing

[@johnsuffill6520]

"I need to test a razor blade" (brings out a utility knife blade instead).

[@RamoArt]

I used to have a sharpener like this (but sold by a well known brand at a huge markup) and when I went to get my knives sharpened at a shop the man told me those are the worst things for knives. He said the only thing he recommends is those long rods, that the knife is dragged against. The kind that everyone used to have in their kitchen before all these gadgets came out. Can you test the rods against this kind of gadget?

[@notreallydaedalus]

You were surprised at how dull the razor blade was because that wasn't a razor blade. That was a utility blade.

[@green7449]

I just got a tumbler sharpener. Pair it with a leather belt and I got my chef knives sharper then they were when I got them. Had to completely redo the edge from my mom cutting against the granite countertop…

[@mccubemaster1]

You need to write on the cinder block piece 1 grit

[@MagnesiumSulfate]

Does pushing very slowly on the tester affect the result? Is there a reason to go slow?

[@hellboy30098]

To get the most accurate reading based on sharpness and not force, you can cut anything quick with enough momentum

[@MagnesiumSulfate]

@@hellboy30098 That makes sense. I was thinking a steady downward force would be more accurate. Trying to go slow seems to cause some stopping and starting which could alter the result. But I have never used one myself.

[@catvoncrimson666]

Welcome to wishlist Wednesday.

[@mr.stratholm4999]

How about a link to the Amazon page for the product?

[@lukeprice9837]

What strop do you use?

[@justafrog5641]

I'd like to see you test a proper straight razor that's been professionally honed. Sharpest I've ever seen a blade. West Coast Shaving offers honing with some products, or you could find a high end barber.

[@charlesurrea1451]

Is that cinder block calibrated? 😄 I have a $3 harbor freight sharpener that work just fine.

Can u make a video reviewing set angle camping/smaller sharpeners for people that want to sharpen their knives camping but have no talent with a whet stone, strop, or puck

[@manitobaoutdoors7705]

I don't understand why he stroped it on the wetstone then lauded the sharpner for being razor sharp. I missed something..........

[@Jage_]

Because he is either an immensely intelligent review troll memer or legitimately has a permanent brain injury.

[@shabadooshabadoo4918]

its just a piece of leather glued to a piece of wood that pulls the burr from the edge of the knife after you sharpen it. If you look closely at the sharpener the one sharpening side is slightly infront of the other side, so one side is sharpened first and the other a moment after. So you will likely have a burr to one side that its best to remove with a strop or it could effect your result. Take a popsicle stick or a piece of plastic or something and rub it on the concrete sidewalk outside in one direction a couple of times and then feel the side of the stick you didnt touch to the sidewalk and you will feel a lot of material has been pushed to the back side and is creating a lump. or in the case of the stick a splinter hazard probably.

[@Jage_]

@@shabadooshabadoo4918 either way it makes the results null. It's not just testing the product but a process including said product.

[@shabadooshabadoo4918]

@@Jage_ all sharpening requires this step, so by your logic you could never test any sharpening tool ever.

[@Jage_]

@@shabadooshabadoo4918 the tool should have stopping or a means to remove the burr. Some sharpening kits include a means. This doesn't. Stop being pedantic.

[@bl4rgh]

Still awaiting the gaming vids on the 2nd channel, whether or not you include your bro again.Seemed a lot of us enjoyed it. Was supposed to be a few months ago, but I guess things happen??

Just keep in mind these V types of knife sharpners are awful for the blade. Never use them on expensive knives.

Should have checked the sharpness before and after the dulling too.
