First thing I do is make sure to round off n soften all the edges and polish too. Then I apply the Teflon type tape and wipe it off often. Another tip is not to press so dang hard into the angle guide Lastly if its a flawless knife, expensive or mirrored surface I will run a strip of blue tape down the side for safety

Cliff, I've had far too many complaints about scratching on the sides of the knives. I've tried the masking tape on the angle guide but found it of little use. Even with fresh masking tape, a couple of passes over the tape and there is enough metal particles embedded in the tape to scratch the surface of the knife sides. It's not so noticeable on heavily used knives already with existing scratching. But when I get a set of expensive, high-end, knives that have never been sharpened and have brite shiny faces I go to the AMK-75 for sharpening. I don't dare use the 1/30 and angle guide on those knives. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated. Love your videos, please keep cranking them out.

You are convincing me to switch from edge trailing to edge leading. With the wooden frame attached to your unit, you could have flipped it over to do the final step on the leather belt edge trailing in a horizontal position. I suppose that with your experience, it wasn't necessary for you but do you think that is a good idea for those of us who are less experienced?

When people worry about these belt myths I usually just tell them that this is what the factory does in 95% of cases, then ask them if they want to know more about it since I cba to waste time with unsolicited information. If they do want to know more though, having that little conversation with them about how things actually work (allthough a bit tedious to repeat often) is usually very productive.

I was skeptical. I really didn't think edge leading was any better than edge trailing. I did my own testing with both techniques on my AMK 75. I really wanted edge trailing to be better since it pushes all the dust away from me. After 10 or so knives there is a lot of dust. However, I came to the conclusion that with edge trailing, it is much harder to remove the burr. It gives you fake results. You think its sharp but there is still a flimsy burr hanging on after a strop belt. So it takes several extra passes during the stropping process. Edge leading doesn't lie to you. Its 90% complete pre stropping. So when you are sharpening for several customers and time is an issue, edge leading takes a lot of the guess work out and really speeds up the process. I have yet to do any testing on how long each technique will hold up over time but I'm guessing you are left with more robust steel with edge leading. Thanks Cliff!

After watching you sharpen I realize I am spending way too much time on each knife. I'm sure the speed will come as time goes on. I did change my belt progression to use only 3 belts: 200, 600, and 1200. I sharpen edge leading so there is usually no burr but I finish with a hand strop to make sure. I was using the leather belt but it just seemed to dull the knives which is really frustrating because then I have to re-sharpen them.

Metallurgical data shows u would have to get blade edge to a slightly higher temperature than the blade was finished tempered at to do damage. So if tempered at 400 deg F for 2 hrs x 2 cycles a fairly common tempering method on many steels , u would have to get the blade to 400 or above to alter its edges treatment. Now personally if I feel heat in by blade while sharpening I move to another blade and work or I’ll cool the blade in water.

I'm guessing you are making a few bucks per knife. Not a lot individually. But you are cranking through a whole pile of knives in just literally a few seconds each, with maybe one more step to finish, also taking just a few seconds each. Once you get the business model, tools, and logistics figured out and the clientele coming in, I can see how this is a decent business model for a side gig, or a full time income for an enterprising person.

Most sharpening service including myself will list their prices. For Kitchen knives my price typically ranges from $7-9 so we do...alright ;)

Dude, aren't you using the wrong direction guide? the belt is running against the leading edge. Isn't it supposed to run away from it? They sell the same guide that mounts in both opposite directions. Like this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYSxYp2mo5mpiZY
