Lt Wright large workhorse no edge to hair whittling

[@MrGodofwar666]

i really like seeing the longer videos, watching the full process is very relaxing haha, have a good one

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Good, cuz there is probably going to be a few more of them coming.

[@timothyragsdale5891]

Another good one bud. I agree with jordy about the longer videos. They are truly informative & relaxing.

[@NeevesKnives]

Watching while also sharpening D2, im going to take mine to about 800 grt, D2 seems to really like a toothier edge, but I dont want it to toothy so well see how it goes, nice having a partner to sharpen with.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Dang just 800? Man that thing will get way sharper than 800.

[@NeevesKnives]

@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 yeah actually I wound up going to 1200 then the trans and im happy with it its damn sharp

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

@@NeevesKnives that's what I did here. And yea boy, that's a edge on D2. Also the good thing about it, it'll last quite a while to.

[@NeevesKnives]

@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 yeah definitely I noticed most d2 when I go high it loses performance but when I stay between 600 and 1500 grt they have their best performance. I have had a few that did very well on a higher grt, so it must be from the hrc or ht. But with this knife it definitely felt better when I went a little higher.

I like this little sidebar here. The two guys that have taught me the most about sharpening. Thank you guys for your contributions to the community.

Best hair whittling capture yet!

[@samuelschwandt271]

Howdy, I was wondering about your reasons for prefering silicon carbide to aluminum oxide stones. You're thoughts on this would be super appreciated. Love the videos they are a fantastic resource when it comes to freehand, thank you for the content.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

I don't prefer them to aluminum oxide? I have both and I use one for one purpose and another for the other purpose.

[@waynebean1521]

Well....super! I cannot for the life of me remember why I sent you that Norton combo stone....but glad I did...been watching it a lot, lately! LOL! THIS video was right up the street of where I'm at, now. I needed this....gonna watch it many times....and the length of the video is fine with me.....whatever it takes! Saw another thing you could use....watch out....Santa Claus will hit you on the South American run! LOL! Still haven't received that knife I was telling you about, yet. But I'll send you some goodies, meantime! I'm loving this carbon steel phase! Cheers, Wayne

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Awesome, I look forward to it. And I can't remember either. But I've used the hell out of it!

[@agaralpha1842]

Norton crystolon is a very nice stone for repro 👍 👍

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

I like it pretty well

[@cdsbarnes2010]

How much pressure do you use with the Arkansas stones in comparison to the dmts

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

I use the same pressure. Just hand pressure. Unless on a ec stone.

[@xade7863]

What’s the little mixture in the spray bottle that you put on the dmt and Arkansas stones?

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Dawn dish soap and water

Man I cringed when you ran your finger across that blade.

I wish you could hear that Crystolon course through my hearing aids. All the popping, clicking and grinding is almost un-nerving.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Dang, that bad?

[@bamafaninky861]

@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 Through hearing aids pretty rough but I can't wear them when I'm using a Crystolon either. It isn't the video its just the grinding sound that stone makes and the frequency.

[@theodorosmalliopoulos7231]

Hello Chris. If i had some of your stones, i would like to try an edge on a steel like D2(which really benefits from toothy edges) , from a different progression. After finishing with the Crystolon, i would continue with Fine India and then go straight to translucent to get rid of the burr. If you have an oportunity and the mood to follow my idea, please do so and tell us how it went. Thank you.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

I can guarantee the edge that's on that knife is beyond sharp. After I whittled with it last night, I realized there was a small burr on one side lol

I don't know why they can't do a better job than that. That's like sending a car to the dealership not running.

[@sharpwhits0167]

It was basically just a blade blank with micarta handles. No bevel at all. Combine tha with a Peter's heat treat and it took forever to sharpen. I would still buy another one though.

Only thing bad about d2 steal is ..not a heavy duty bush craft knife..if you baton with it it will chip every time ..i know this knife not made for that but I like durable bush craft knives ..thanks man love that knife

I have several bushcrafters in d2 that I have used heavily, and I've never had a issue with chipping.

How good are LT Wright knives ? I got some bark river knives for hunting. Your video was good keep them coming . 🦌

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Bark river don't hold a candle to lt Wright's and battle horses. The heat treat is way better.

The bark river I have has good heat treat I’ll pickup Lt before hunting and give it a try .

View 200. Wish I had a pink translucent. I could use it as a great paperweight. I can't even get a knife sharp with diamonds yet, but still practicing.

It'll come

[@lz_377]

My uncle gave me an old bone handle solingen steel Frost right before he passed and I’m having an absolute nightmare of a time trying to bring this thing up to a good edge. I’ve not had this much trouble since I first started sharpening. Anyone else have trouble with solingen steel?

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Soligen steel shouldn't be to bad to sharpen. If it's authentic soligen anyway

[@lz_377]

Rough Rooster Knife Sharpening idk man. I know it’s old but I doubt it’s expensive. It was just him giving all his stuff away about 10 days before he passed. So I just wanted to do it a little justice for him I guess. I wish I could send you a pic. It’s made in Pakistan if that tells you if it’s super cheap or not. I’ll keep at it though. Thanks for the vids and response brother.

[@lz_377]

Rough Rooster Knife Sharpening I finally got gliding through magazine paper... I’m trying to find out more about it but I can’t find the exact one. It still has the box. It’s Frost Cutlery Custom Designed Kodiak Trapper. It’s white bone with 3 brass pins and brass ends. If anyone can give me more information let me know.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

I hate to say it, but you'll never get that knife sharp. It being made in Pakistan. I'd just hang onto it for a keepsake.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

Dang what did u use to sharpen it??

[@bamafaninky861]

There are 10 down votes on this video. I have watched the entire video and for the life of me can't figure why someone would dislike it. The only two potential reasons I can think of are you thought the video was to long or you thought a knife of that caliber should have come sharp. I for one think Chris did a great job and appreciate the effort.

[@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531]

I don't know. It's a bunch of bullshit. Probably impatient.

@@roughroosterknifesharpenin5531 Even if they think the video is too long it shouldn't get a dislike. If you don't want to watch an hour at a time don't.
