How to Sharpen a Recurve Knife Easily.

sandpaper wrapped around a dowel rod works good

Thanks man, I have a Spyker (Spyderco / Kershaw coop) and the recurve is insane and drove me crazy whenever I wanted to sharpen it.

Very informative. Does this work on different metals of the blades?

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Thanks! Most knife steels yes. You may need a diamond rod for some of the high hrc steels.

Thank you so much for this video, I got a benchmade north fork and everyone and their mama keeps telling me it will be a pain to sharpen… This doesn’t look too bad 😮😂 Cheers brother you earned a sub

Thank you Louie. I appreciate you!

That’s a good sharpening technique for recurve blades.

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Thanks Detective. Appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@raphlvlogs271]

is it a good idea to sharpen recurved blades with the rounded side of a rasps?

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Yes if you need to remove material quickly to fix the grind or edge. Follow up with finer rods and strop.

Just so happens I was having a bitch of a job sharpening my blurr and by chance your using the same knife in your video. I been trying on 4in rods but I just don't have the technique. Flat diamond stones have already damaged the profile. Thanks

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Cool. Take your time. After some practice it kinda becomes therapeutic, enjoyable and satisfying. If the edge is really beat up start with a diamond rod then the finer ceramic. Finish up on a strop. A leather belt and the barber technique work great on the Blur! Good luck.
