Thanks Jared. No one ever talks about this you just see hair whittling paper slicing, tomatoes, cardboard but what does it feel like. I look at my edges under magnification and can see where I go wrong or that they get a burr work it off. Progress polish getting a good sharp feeling knife then find the knife edge looks great but it feels like its dull and it would "slip" making me think I messed up and made it dull. Sure sometimes I definitely did but Im realizing trying to take every budget knife between 1k and 5k was the bigger problem. I can't wait to try dropping down and finishing 600 to 800 on certain steels to see how they perform. Thanks!

I used to do a lot more high grit finishes on certain steels. These days though it’s 600-1200 pretty much across the board with only a couple exceptions. For me and what I use them for, it’s all about having good bite, plus it saves me so much time not going all the way to a high polish or even mirrored edge. I’ve also got a few different strops loaded with lower grit diamond compounds.

I am definitely right in the thick of figuring this one out. My current philosophy (that may change with time), is to take a blade to the finest angle ..ish that the steel, blade shape, and use/user can handle before excessive chipping or rolling. Take that to a fine grit/polish.. BUT then do a micro edge at a lower grit... and I need to learn to strop less I think... and stop sucking at it. Also probably finer grit for others knives who will not be keeping up on sharpening. What micro edge grit for each blade is still very much in a learning phase. I am more confused than confident still haha. One of the biggest issues with figuring this out is as you TRY to start learning about knife steels, angles, grits. grinds.. mostly knife steels.. you find there is NOT a consensus on data! Go find all the graphs out there on toughness edge retention etc.. you will find they do not all agree (sometimes by a lot!) and it is maddening lol. And I still don't understand how hardness, edge retention, wear resistance, and (lack of) ease of sharpening.. are not the same damn thing. If it is easy to sharpen.. doesn't that mean it is soft and would not hold an edge? What alientech (or BS) is afoot?... There is another subject I found like this back in the day.. motor oil.. and I am starting to think some people... want us confused. ┻━┻ ︵ ¯\ (ツ)/¯ ︵ ┻━┻

Lot of people just don't know better and regurgitate. Just like using canola oil for quenching 1095.. retained austenite, anyone? Larrin is a gift to us knife steel nerds. Do be reminded that steels of the same mind do vary by manafacturer and even by batch. So identical heat treatments might vary a little. And mediocre heat treatments versus great ones obviously perform differently.

I can vouch for S90V being dangerous AF to handle at a high grit sharpening/polishing. Super durable edge retention and ultra slicey, it's my steel of choice for caping deer. Even bumping into bones, my Benchmade saddle mountainskinner in the 1500-2 S90V is a deer hunters wet dream. All I've ever had to do is lightly run down some ceramic and strop it, and its good as new 👌🏽 but don't slip because it does no skating on skin, just cutting 🫠

Can I recommend a video? I think a lot of people would benefit understanding the steps of sharpening and when to do what, and to what amount. For example.... If you're going for a toothy edge, how much does "honing" come into play? What about "stropping?" And what compounds should be used? Then, going into finer edges. Same questions. If you could make a video that shows all of these steps WITH images of results after each step, I bet a lot of viewers would be very happy! Just a suggestion.

I just got a Civivi Hadros in 10cr15comov and I’ve had an experience that I’ve never had before. I sharpen on a workssharp fixed angle sharpening system, it’s basically the same concept as a Spyderco sharpmaker but with more flexibility in angles and 3 grades of stone instead of two. So I was trying to put an edge on the Hadros and I’d start off on the rough diamond and get it sharp on that fine, but as soon as I move onto the fine diamond it makes it much duller rather than refining the edge like it usually does before progressing onto the fine ceramic. I tried resharpening it again but the same thing happened , so this time I just got it sharp on the rough diamond and left it at that. Has anyone had this experience? Does 10cr just do better with a toothier/rougher grit edge? Is this a phenomena with some steels? I haven’t had this issue with any of the super steels I’ve sharpened or anything else

I get my Spyderco sv30 sharp, I get my 154 cm steel sharp, also my m390 gets sharp, but when I sharpen my 8rc13mov, the sharpness is on a different level, it gets screaming sharp, I know the edge won’t last as long, so after sharpening it, I almost don’t want to use the knife, I hate seeing something that sharp degrade with use, I’m not sure why I get the cheaper steel sharper than the more expensive steel.

For powdered steel: anything over 600-800 is just for looks. We all know this we just love wiggling our knives around for the light to hit. If your blade slides off what your cutting then all functionality has said goodbye to the blade. But on a marketing outlook: yea spend thousands on not needed sharpening systems and exotic blade steels. Carbon and well done 440c is all u could ever need facts. Save money people. And ur welcome. Magnacut and such is just a ploy people. Still like your videos nevves
@ognjenvesic9515
@ognjenvesic9515 4 ай бұрын
I keep hearing this and I dont agree. Powdered steel is just a way of manufacturing the steel. Steels with very fine grain without large carbides(SG2) that are used for bonless protein like fish in sushi can be taken to ultra fine polish. So it depends on the structure of steel, amount and size of carbides, intended use... Some PM steels used in folders and survival knives intended to use on fibrous and hard stuff mainly for slicing, I agree. 400-800(1000) will give best performance .

Yeah you definitely can do more damage than good if your not careful with stropping, I like ceramics they require pressure so if your good at listening and knowing the feel of the stone you can get great results, I do think that some steels do better on other stones but yeah they work on most steels as long as you use the right stones on your first progression.

I recently sharpened a 14c28n knife and it was sharp as hell at 1000 grit but then I took it up to 3000 grit and it wasn’t cutting paper as well as when it was sharpened to 1000. I know you said it works well with high grit so now I’m wondering if I didn’t sharpen it right or if maybe that’s typical with the paper test.
@jdisdetermined
@jdisdetermined Жыл бұрын
Most likely you just had a small issue in the 3k process.. left some wire edge/burr, rounded the edge a bit, overstropped or stropped at too high of an angle. Decent sharpness levels are more forgiving but it doesn’t take much of any of those to strongly effect ultra sharpness. 14c should just get better and better at cutting paper as you refine the edge. Did it push cut better than 1000 and just not slice as well, or did both get worse?

So what I've found is high carbide steels with high vanadium perfrom best with coarse grit. Lower carbide steels does great with 400 or under or just go polished. Stones really matter. Carbide tear out. Or when the knife is skipping across the steels is bad. Creates fatigued steel on edge . Gotta use proper abrasives on super steels. Just because u can use a aluminum oxide stone doesn't mean your getting proper performance. But again if u can't sharpen then the best Stones in the world won't help. Also over stropping is a plague on this community. Stropping more than 5 to 10 passes per side is just to much. Stropping is removing final micro burrs and cleaning up apex. Don't use for anything else.

But there is a diffeence when u deal with whetstones diamond plates resin bonded etc. 1 thing I've learned dealing with whetstones is surface texture. Some stones like a slurry built up by a diamond plate. Some just need a refresher after use. Run a plate over after using. Some release abrasives with pressure. So thats important. Also pressure when shapening. Someone told me half the pressure every progression. I like that 1. Also I dont really like arks because they are so slow. Stropping can be a great resource but man I've killed soooooo many edges by over stropping. Try do strop as little as possible. Form that apex on stones. And start at a lower grit. Sometimes u have to grind off more than you've thought. Factory edges are wonky. Huge fan I sit and watch your vids. I know what your saying. And your doing a great job. Stay up. See ya next vid.

And I think think theres right, and wrong ways to do things but then I think theres lots of variables that give different results and opinions, what one person might like another might not, whether its based from pressure or style of sharpening, kinda like stropping one person might strop a little more than another with better results because hes using very very light pressure then another person can make his edge even less sharp with only a few passes because hes using hella pressure and isnt good at holding their edge flat, its just an example, ive had some people love certain stones that i dont. But I do think we all have something to learn from each other and i never claim to know every thing I just try to have fun and share my experience.

I hate sharpening my knives! Being a perfectionist, it’s never good enough! It whittles hair but I still kinda see a grit pattern😱 Why when I sharpen my own knife it needs a perfect mirror edge and cut things before it touches it 😂!!!

Id rather have a grit pattern myself that a mirror usually sometimes i like a mirror but i know what you mean about perfectionist, esp doing it freehand can sometimes get a little crazy, I love sharpening though but sometimes i drive myself crazy getting a jewelers loupe didnt help the crazy part.
