Do you actually need a fancy knife sharpener?

In this video I review Worksharp's line of Precision Adjust Knife sharpeners from the base model, to the Elite, to the Pro version. The questions is, "Do you actually need a fancy knife sharpener, or can you do well with some whetstones? I will also give you a step-by-step tutorial for the easiest and fastest way to use whetstones.

Such a fantastic video with a wealth of knowledge! Thanks very much and I love your setup!

[@AwareHouseChef]

My pleasure and I truly thank you for sharing! All the best!

[@fairgolfer]

Good comprehensive video. And thanks for the link to Korin, I'll check them out 👍👍

[@AwareHouseChef]

My pleasure! I appreciate your kind feedback! Let me know what you think of that link. All the best!

[@kjay5056]

Great video and appreciate the honest evaluation of the equipment being used. Like you said, if you don't mind the learning curve and like a sharp knife, the stones are the way to go. Glad I found your channel and subscribed. I had prior to this, but this was a nice surprise.

[@AwareHouseChef]

Glad that you did as well and thank you for subscribing. All the best!

[@BillCoSmith]

I have used a Lansky kit for years on all my kitchen knifes. I have a Tormek 7 for everything else and use it's leather strop on the kitchen knifes too.

[@AwareHouseChef]

Yeah, that leather strap is indispensable. I swear by that thing. All the best!

[@Jason_Carnes]

Thank you so much for the video, very helpful information. I think I will end up going with whetstones over a sink with running water.

[@AwareHouseChef]

Take your time. It will be one natural with a little patience. Cheers!

[@jadestarr7153]

I've always used and old 3 sided Arkansas wet stone. And I can't imagine getting one sharper . I can make any knife absolutely surgical sharp . It was like 25$ 15 yrs ago

[@S7ORM3X]

if you decide to get any of theese guided sharpeners ill recommend getting a universal stone holder for them so you can use any 4-6 inch stone that you want because these diamond plates that they come with doesnt last for shit

[@Lewisiaable]

Thank you George! Another informative video 👍

[@AwareHouseChef]

My pleasure! All the best !

[@Kathleen67.]

Thanks, I will be investing in the stones.

[@AwareHouseChef]

If you have any questions, you are always welcome to reach out. Thank you, Kathleen!

​@@AwareHouseChef What is best for a Machete?

[@sleepyhead7391]

it would be interesting to see how these compare with those lower end manual pull through sharpeners that most people use.

[@AwareHouseChef]

Unfortunately, those are pretty bad. They create a serration on the knife edge usually so it seems like the knife is sharp but it is actually sawing through whatever you are cutting.

[@sleepyhead7391]

@@AwareHouseChef thanks for the insight!

[@AwareHouseChef]

@sleepyhead7391 my pleasure

What about - DMT Fine Diamond Sharpening Stone,? I saw this reviewed on kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnvJf4VjfJtsnKM and was very intrigued by the comment about the stones made with Aluminum Oxide ( which I have, and may explain some of the issues with trying to get a good edge as a beginner!)- Would be very curious o your take

[@AwareHouseChef]

I was going to purchase them for my business where I would prefer not to have water continuously dripping on the stones. When you start getting into the higher grits, unfortunately, the diamond does not produce consistent results. It is very aggressive as well not that that’s a terrible thing, but for the price, and they are very expensive I would prefer to use the water stones.

Ken Onion Worksharp. Have tried several fixed-angle sharpeners over the years. None bad. But all require some skill, thought not as much as stones. But I keep my selection of Kai Shun knives razor-sharp very easily with the WSKO edition.

[@AwareHouseChef]

I wouldn’t hesitate to use it. Cheers. Thanks for sharing
