But if ya want a good sharpen then ya can use a clay pot with no coating on it or clay that has been dried or even sandstone. Ya it won't be shaving sharp probably with the sandstone though but it will get really sharp. O and also if u do have access to clay, then u can always just put some of the wet clay on the ground and use that and that will get ya to shaving sharp kinda easily as long as u know what ur doing. And u can even just use mud with the big rocks picked out and use that as the abrasive. Being broke can get ya to be very creative. 😀 cheers.

Tyler, it's a common thing for a knife to feel duller after sharpening than after repair, it's because the sharpening one polishes whilst the repair grinds it to the proper apex, because the repair makes it very jagged but in the right angle, it grabs your skin and feels sharp. a razor has a smooth non jagged feel because it helps with your skin and razor burn.

I have notied the same in trying to slice something like a lemon, my shaving sharp knife wouldnt cut through the peel, the edge being too smooth.

[@William_Asston]

to dull knives, you should cut a thick jute rope. the jute is abrasive and simulates wear without chipping or flattening the blade like the cinder block does. it's also easier to control the experiment by measuring how much you dull the knife in "cuts". A common problem with these types of pull-through sharpeners is that they leave a saw-like, wavy edge rather than a smooth polished one. It means the edge gets dull and wears away very quickly, but feels sharp and grabby when you test it. Testing for edge retention is certainly important as well. I'd also recommend testing out the Fallkniven DC4 and leather belt strop. I'm confident it'll out-perform every pull-through sharpener out there.

[@greatleader4841]

This is just Tyler reliving his childhood of sharpening knives to get the sharpest knife for 25 minutes.

[@GreatLordOz]

Great tests! You also have to keep in mind there is probably an upper limit of sharpness each one can achieve. Although the gorilla grip may have sharped the most based on starting and ending numbers, the other sharpeners may have achieved similar results if they had a duller starting blade.

[@LiveType]

With this test, I feel the best thing to do would be to grab a cheap usb microscope. It would really help see just how dull these knifes are and what exactly the sharpeners did to the edge. Also I would love to see you chuck a $10-15 whetstone in there for comparison. They take some time to learn but combine a $10 whetstone with a leather strop and it'll blow away all of those sharpeners right until you get to the super high precision ones which aren't cheap. Also the reason the lower grit "stones" feel "sharper" is because of the massive teeth they leave. They're really good at digging into your skin. Not because they're necessarily sharp. The tomato test is a good gauge for how "usefully" sharp a knife is. If you really polish up a knife, you'll find it somehow struggles to cut a tomato with thick skin compared to say a 1000 grit stone. (It'll still cut through it just fine, calm down. It'll just take more force than you would expect for a knife that sharp). A microscope would reveal all.

One thing I learned from hours upon hours and blade upon blade this steel and that....you may have over sharpened. using 100 passes may be too many. You possibly could have better results with fewer passes using these type of sharpeners. There is a point where your as sharp as your gonna get, you knife guys know what I mean lol. I personally like to use the 6” tri stone with an Arkansas stone finish. Once the blade is back up to par then depending on use that week I’d touch it up on a leather strop with some fine polishing compound. The main thing is to keep your knife sharp rather let it go completely dull then removing a lot of material to get back to cutting sharp. At some point you’ll get into softer material and the edge won’t hold for nothing. Edit: I’d like to see more of the sharpener test videos 👍🏻 good stuff

[@m00seknucklejohnson45]

At 22:34 Gorilla grip is retested and comes in at 810 and thus it is declared the winner. Isn't lower better and accusharp was always best and gorilla grip always the worst?

[@Ponce5567]

thats exactly what i was thinking

[@AbuMaia01]

I think when you mention the second Accusharp, you may be meaning the SharPal, which according to the final sharpness numbers should have been the winner. But I think what he did was take the "dull" numbers of each blade and subtract the final numbers from each to get a number representing improvement. In that case, the Gorilla Grip one did have the most improvement from dull number to final sharp number. Before the Gorilla Grip was retested, the Smiths had the highest improvement number.

[@dominiccomtois7850]

I can't make sense out of his numbers either. Or rather, the ranking logic doesn't seem sound to me. "Gained" grams might somehow be an indicator of how fast you can repair damaged blades. But in the end, what matters is how good you can make it... So why not continuing to sharpen for as long as you see an improvement? (And if that did happen, then mea culpa... I got a bit impatient and must have skipped that part).

The problem is most of us don't know the exact angle to hold the knife at so the gorilla grip really only helps someone with a decent amount of knife knowledge.

[@ZDemon340]

Those Accu-sharp style sharpeners really do ONE thing but they do it well!! It's carbide 'wedge' design is best for when the blade is fairly trashed and needs totally new edge! You MUST try to use the same amount of 'down-force' AND same 'EVENNESS' in every pull, no angle or tilt! When you think you have put a new, even edge on the blade there really only one thing left u can do with a fixed carbide wedge and that is to start decreasing the amount of down-force of your even strokes. Once ur down to just the weight of the knife, you're done...with THIS sharpener. Now it needs a medium-light or finishing stone followed by a good stropping. This sharpener can/will take a trashed and beat up blade and put a new 'fresh metal' edge on it FAST...but will still need further work with a light or finishing surface and strop, ofc. If u don't have the time you can 'sharpen a knife' I guess...just use really light down-force from the start cuz this thing will EAT metal and DO NOT USE on a normally 'sharp af', well kept blade...it deserves better, imho 😉

Since Tyler put the knife through the gorilla grip again after getting the right angle down he actually did 200 passes on each type of sharpener so I think the crappy gorilla grip shouldn’t have won.

[@killerghost4079]

The second time he ran it through it was about as sharp as the other 2, not counting number 4 because it was at 1550, so like it kind of was fair

[@jessicawillard1213]

Well when he redid the gorilla grip, he used the number that he started at after the first time, the 1910. So he calculated the difference between the 1910 and the new total of 800 something after 100 passes. He didn’t assume that it went from 2520 down to 800 something after 100 passes, as it did take him double that. For the results, He only used the numbers from the second go through. In this case, it won. But I agree that it shouldn’t have won. I think he should’ve factored in the aspect that with that one you had to get it at an exact angle in order for it to sharpen, unlike the others where the angle didn’t matter that much. Ease of use and product design are important. He also had to do an extra 100 passes with it, as it had 3 sharpeners to it. So that added time to use all three, matters.

[@cristianmoore1996]

I didn’t understand that either. Plus it still only made it to 810 after the second run with a start similar to the others at that point and the actual top 2 were at 250 so the other 3 still beat it.

[@VangelusV]

@@jessicawillard1213 wrong he did use the 2520 down to 810 because if he didn’t #1 would have absolutely still won it was like 1985 down to 315. If he didn’t take the 2520 number it would have been ~1670 off vs ~1100. So original commentor does have the right to say it did have an unfair advantage in getting 200 passes on 3 blades where it already had a jump over the others.

At 11:17 ish it kinda looks like the peasant on your shirt has a huge bong hair because of your big beard. I love it :D

To even dull a sharp knife quickly, cut bamboo across the grain. My bamboo cutting board wrecks mild steel knives in a few strokes. Textured glass will dull an edge by rolling the edge.

Best sharpener test I've seen!! Great Job!!! I've got a smith and a case that's made similar that I use for ease of use and great sharpening. I"ve got a sharpener similar to the Gorilla sharpener that works Great but only use it when I have more time and more knives to sharpen. I always wondered if the numbers would support what I was seeing and it appears they do. Again thanks for such a great test and video..

You should do Expensive knife / Cheap sharpener VS Cheap knife / Expensive sharpener

[@MrFunreal]

i'd like to see you test knifes. just a set of kitchen knifes to see which one keeps their edges best. Considering some really cheap ones lose their edge after a couple of months, whilst expensive ones may keep it for a year or more.
