Much needed video!

[@garyd395]

Sold my 3d printed clamp,felt very cheap.then bought the official tsprof single clamp,now I'm satisfied.

[@jaffutemeslames]

Hi bro. Great video, as always 👍 You don't use the liquidretro adapter anymore? Also, have you ever tried the TSPROF fillets clamps? I had hesitated between these and this central clamps for sharpening EDCs (you know, to avoid the stone rubbing against the clamps) and I took the fillets clamps. I'm probably going to switch to the K03 pro Hunter and I'm still hesitating with this central clamp...

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

I kinda like this better just because it looks cleaner to me but I still have my adapter and it worked well. Just depends how much money you want to spend. As for the filet clamps I haven’t tried them so I can’t really say

[@anthonycardona1121]

Good stuff, subscribed. Have you used clippercide or similar clipper disinfectant/lubricant to clean up knife blades and prevent rust?

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

Thanks brother and no its too expensive for that lol! I use 91% alcohol to clean just about everything and anything! I don’t encounter corrosion often because I keep my blades clean and dry but when ever I do find some I just use some mineral oil or wd40 and a brush, that usually does the trick because I catch it before it gets bad. Just keeping your blade clean really helps prevent it in the first place though!

[@anthonycardona1121]

@@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL Ahh, I'm w you on the 91% alcohol. I've had some rust on an M4 Mantra that had been sitting awhile. So, I've been wiping down less stainless steels for storage w various oils. I came across a can of clippercide for free, and thought it'd be convenient for blade care across the board. Basically just isopropyl, mineral oil, from what I can tell. But your channel immediately came to mind!

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

@@anthonycardona1121 im sure it can’t hurt but its just not what I would use. Anytime I’m really concerned about a knife corroding, I clean it really well with alcohol and then apply EDCI! Leaving a light coating of any oil will protect it also. I just like edci because you wipe it off and the blade is dry but still protected.

[@mcm4point2o]

Hey man cool upload as always- do you ever see your sharpening business expanding beyond Instagram/dms into maybe even a full website or something? Asking for a social media avoidant friend lol

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

Not sure tbh, really depends if it would be really beneficial and if id be able to manage it with everything else I’m trying to do!

[@davestelling]

I'm admiring your hex drivers, are they the ball-end? Much easier to work with than using the included hex keys w/ TSPROF. Thought about getting a set of the TSPROF - but they are often sold out, and I've heard they aren't worth the price? I'm still learning here with my KO-3, and have had some good results with 3 micron diamond lapping film for that pretty mirror edge...

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

The hex drivers are square end or whatever the term would be for a standard hex tip. Ive had them for a long long time and they have held up perfectly! If you shoot me a message reminder on IG, I’ll find these same ones I bought and send you the link! They weren’t very expensive either, maybe $20 for a set of 5. 1.5,2,2.5,3&3.5mm I definitely would not spend the money for the tsprof branded drivers because they are literally the same thing rebranded!

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

I just added the link in the video description under “TOOLS I USE AND RECOMMEND”! 👊🏼😁

[@dandildarious4849]

I have the tsprof blitz, and the screws in the clamps come loose, do you know of a source for replacement screws or blitz clamps? The screws are too little and too soft.

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

Honestly have no idea brother, if I find anything out I’ll let you know

[@dandildarious4849]

ok thanks

[@ibashyougood]

Just got my single clamp, one screw.. shoort xD any chance you have what hight the taller screw is? Hopefully it’s standard M-size bolt with fine threads! Thank you for these vids!!!

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

I don’t unfortunately, my clamp came with a baggy of spare screws and from my understanding they are supposed to be included. I can measure it later though

[@ibashyougood]

@@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL I would be forever great full!! 🔥🔥🙌

[@cody3078]

Do the standard dual clamps that come with the Kadet system not work with Spyderco’s full flat grinds?

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

They can but there’s a little learning curve to it. The Tsprof is a very nicely made system but it’s definitely not the most user friendly. I personally wouldn’t recommend it to anyone just starting out. The KME is still what I recommend for most people and I still enjoy using mine just because of its simplicity. I also get just as good if not better results with the KME. Only downside is the time it takes to reprofile with a 4 inch stone vs using a 6 inch

[@markfletcher5267]

I'm just curious, what is that watch You have on?

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

Its a citizen, not sure what model. I bought it like 6 years ago. It charges by motion which is pretty cool and ive never had it stop keeping time accurately so I like it!

[@markfletcher5267]

I have another question, did you start free Handing before Using the system for sharpening knife

[@BLADESANDFADESOFFICIAL]

@@markfletcher5267 yes, I started with a smith tri-stone bench stone and learned how to sharpen freehand first but I never took it to the level that ive gone with guided systems.!
