[@nato1405]

This is a great sharpener. The only issue is that you can't sharpen the other side without unclamping the blade. If you had a separate block that clamped onto the blade and attached to the end of the base, you could detach it once one side of the blade is finished, and then attach the block to the other side of the base without unclamping the blade. So long as that arm rotates 360, you just swing it round to the other side and you can sharpen the opposite side of the knife, keeping the exact same angle and orientation of the knife.

[@RobWhittlestone]

Beautiful work as usual by THE Internet master craftsman. I have been considering making one of these too and love the solution the master has adopted here. I am missing one feature: a movable rest so the angle will be symmetrical irrespective of which side of the blade is being sharpened. With time, for a given position of the edge, bridge positions can be marked for different angles like 15⁰, 18⁰, 20⁰, 22.5⁰ depending on the type of blade to be sharpened. I love the use of glass as a backing to replaceable abrasives. I never saw cork used for final polishing: I would have used leather. Pure Zen watching The Master at work.

[@hollt693]

Brilliant! I've wanted something like this for a long time, so this is very helpful! I think using a caster like you've done might actually be more stable than the ball joints in the sharpening jigs I've looked at. It looks like you aren't having trouble driving in those threaded inserts with a hex wrench, but I'd like to share a tip with you and anyone reading this: if you use a bolt and a jam nut to drive them in, you can apply much more torque without risking the inserts cracking. That's a trick I wish I'd known sooner.

[@mischail56mironov3]

узел регулировки угла, классное решение!!!! стандартное колесо... и мастерская хорошая....

[@barbarianatgate2000]

I love this design (and all of your videos.) The one thing this needs is a positive stop or registration point for when you flip the blade to sharpen the other side. Moving it backward or forward even slightly from where the blade was previously, gives you an inconsistent angle of attack for the abrasive and changes the blade geometry. Drilling pairs of holes for adjustable pins would rectify the issue. Other than that, this is a very elegant build.

[@cho4d]

i can't imagine it matters, considering people sharpen by hand. i guarantee you they're off by more than the fraction of a blonde one that you'd be off re-setting up this jig by eye

[@jisakukobo]

Thanks for watching. It is conceivable that marking the sharpener stand and the knife would remedy the problem.

[@barbarianatgate2000]

@@cho4d I agree that people are doing that. But many people doing it the wrong way doesn't mean it's a good idea. For those of us who still take pride in sharpening, it's a major difference, especially when it's such a simple solution.

[@barbarianatgate2000]

@@jisakukobo Yes, that could absolutely work. Either would be a simple solution. I so enjoy seeing your videos. It's wonderful to see not only insightful engineering and practical solutions, but real pride in craftsmanship as well. Seeing so many shop made tools provide such great results is really a pleasure to watch.

[@thePavuk]

@@cho4d when you do hand sharpening, result is convex shape because differences of each stroke. When you use jig, result is polished V shape and any difference in position cause new flat surface

[@user-dz8uv8ks4h]

So professional work! You can't tell that it's not a factory made... As far as I know, the best angle for sharppening a knife is 15 degrees... The sliding mechanism changes the angle from the sharpest angle (on the far end position), to the most obtuse angle (on the closer position) so how can you tell the exact 15 degree angle? Is it worth the effort to make the sliding mechanism? Is it implemented to sherpen a knife with other angles? wonderful video!

[@anton2956]

this is an excellent design and execution, however, if there were a way to horizontally glide the pivot point of the sharpening surface-holder, so that it could move parallel to the section of the blade that is just straight, then only curve as it reaches the tip. as it is, the sharpening surface moves in a circle in all directions. even up an down, a linear translation would be better so that you could sharpen at precise angles requires for certain blades cheers this is still bomb, im glad you made me think, even if the adjustments i described are beyond my skill level haha

Very nice work, and very clever use of a caster. I would say that the only thing I would have liked to have seen was a way to determine exactly what angle the blade is being sharpened at.

[@SystemX1983]

And a slide for the x axis, to sharpen Katanas 😉 Seen this knife sharpener commercially at high prices. I think, the notches for holding the glass plates, were probably even better with a slightly different angle instead of the 90°. Like this |_\--------/_| so the glass plate is pushed upwards by the spring force... Oh, that just looks a bit like a dovetail 😂

[@marcelorolle6298]

China market has inexpensive digital angle "readers" that can be attached to a piece of sheet metal mounted instead of the glass.

[@madaeiramontanha]

the angle of sharpening depends on the blade and the use of the knife. As it's an outdoor knife I would say in between 40°-50° while a sharp kitchen knife is from 20°-30° or rasor blades below 10° the fine tuning you've to find out after you've build it 😁
