You forgot to pick the angle of bevel you desired. For an example, for that knife you sharpened I’d have picked the 23° bevel. A filet knife or kitchen knife I’d go with a 17-15° angle. And watching you do that knife, you’ll take the point off of it quickly with how you’re doing it. I’ve got several I hosed the tip off of as well. Grind at a slower speed and stop the grinder when the tip of the knife reaches the halfway point as it’s crossing the belt. Also keep the edge perpendicular to the belt as you draw the blade across the belt. So if you’ve got a knife edge that curves as you near the tip, you’d lift the handle keeping the edge being pulled level across. WorkSharp has some incredible videos, I’d recommend watching, that way, your knives will be as sharp as they can and your videos will assist your viewers in their sharpening journey as well. Good luck to you, I love my razor sharp blades, and this machine is one of the fastest ways to get them there.
