Best stone I have used and I was on the fence until I saw your video review on this stone.

[@Sideshowbobx]

Do we have a tutorial on serrated/saw toothed knife edges so far? And what diamond tools work best here - I use a couple standard round and halve round diamond files so far for reshaping but none for honing well yet.

[@LifeMyWay007]

Yes, a bit boring - HOWEVER it is VERY informative. A bit lower on the Entertainment value but Very High in Information value. Overall, you continue to make great content. (I know I keep saying that over and over but it is true.) QQQ - I am a full time RV and need to sharpen my axe, any axe sharpening tips (new video???) Can I use my same Sharpal 325/1200 or an axe needs something different?

[@EternalKing06]

Instead of sharpening a Santoku which has an almost flat edge, I would love to see you sharpen a more aggressively curved kitchen knife. I think a lot of people struggle to keep a consistent angle along the entire edge because of the size and the curve at the tip and can benefit a lot from your expertise. An example would be Wusthof Amici. An a lot cheaper alternative to that $300 knife would be the Ikea Voerda Chef's knife (which is about $13)

[@suspicionofdeceit]

This, I really struggle on the curves.

[@jeffreyr.lapennas6069]

Yeah I find a chef's knife or a boning knife is a different animal than a santoku.

[@VVrayth]

It's really just as simple as moving the handle closer or further from your relative to the angle of the curve. Just mark the edge with a marker and practice.

[@yellowked]

You can tilt your whole body when working on curved edges.

[@kennymartin5976]

I know these might be boring from an pros perspective, but as a regular joe who's fed up with pull sharpeners and is just looking to keep his kitchen knifes sharp, your videos have been extremely informative and helpful. Seeing you sharpen blades in real time is super helpful as tutorials for complete noobs like myself.

[@lotheravanti4295]

This dude literally got me into sharpening my own knives after seeing what a pull through does

[@pahaahv]

We want real time kitchen knife sharpening videos because our knives' edges are often duller than the backs of our knives. Yes you sharpen your super hardened camping knife but most of us don't even have one, but what we do have is dull kitchen knives and too much information on how to "sharpen" them - especially Gordon Ramsay polishing his stick. Thank you for making this video :D

[@thegreatestshowcries2380]

Hey Alex, six months ago I was an idiot and had the crappy stone - made from pebbles. I knew intuitively I was messing something up, but sure, I could cut like 3 tomatoes before having to pebble and steel it again. Shaving?!?! You gotta be on drugs. Anyway, I got your unicorn stone and was cutting paper, okay. A strop, then cheap diamond smelling paste, and really mediocre results. Perfect practice and all, finally the better diamond stuff and strop 2.0 and then 30x & 60x loops, and holy moly!! The burr was finally truly removed for real - clearly the first time I had - took me awhile more than I thought - but wait, okay now: and I had never knew what a sharp knife was until then, hairs popping off my back, my wife’s back too - just from touching the blade to my arm. Seriously, you have created a once teachable idiot into a fairly respectable free hand knife sharpener! All respect and gratitude to you for your awesome production work on these videos - love your music choices always, except for this one- and thank you for your passion, I so value your thinking and approach to all you do!

[@user-xf4es7eh9y]

i mean congrats but learning how to sharen a knife is basiclly one of the easiest things you could ever bother to learn. I really can't think of many things that are easier to learn. yet guys treat it like it's some big deal. mostly little boys, but guys too for sure. Learn how to play an instrument, talk another language, then you'll have something to be proud of. Hell learn how to a trick on a skateboard, boys love that too, right? That's 20x harder than getting a knife sharp on a stone. learn how to draw something. learn how to fix your AC. Learn how to administer a computer network. You didn't need any of that stuff to learn either. all you needed one knife and one decent stone and then actually apply yourself. like actually take more than 2 seconds and actually try to learn how to do it. anyone that actually bothers will realize how easy it actually is after maybe 10 minutes of trying for 3 days you'll be able to do it good enough. almost anything else would take you longer to learn. anything actually worth being proud of would take 100x longer.

[@chrisstearns10]

@cat22_a1 when you practice, make minor changes and try to examine where you knife is contacting the sharpening surface. Make a few swipes then look at you knife edge to see if you have the right angle. If not make small adjustments until you see that you are grinding in the correct place.

I’m gonna be sharpening all my kitchen knives based on this video as well. Sounds like the planets are in alignment for your journey into the sharp o sphere.

[@-COBRA]

i recommend you do not use the microscope for this video watching

[@tonyfweb]

Thanks to you I've been able to get my knives shaving sharp by free hand sharpening! I was originally using a fixed angle sharpening system that worked fantastic, but it was really time consuming to set up. After watching you get shaving sharp results off a brick, I went and found a brick from the garden, a $1 knife from Dollar Tree, and got to practicing. Once I became proficient, I went and got this sharpening stone. I usually keep it in the kitchen so that I can quickly grab it and do quick maintenance on my knives as I go. You have saved me so much time! So, thank you! I still wish you would review the sharpening system though as I do believe it's a great system, just time consuming. I was using the Lansky 4 Stone Deluxe Diamond System.

[@johnteran8889]

your advice to start with a course diamond stone has been absolutely invaluable. I gained the abikity to raise a burr and all my kitchen knives and pocket knives are sharp thanks to you!

[@lucasrohde]

I’ve watched dozens of sharpening videos and this is the most to the point and instructive. And your microscopic video on the burr, and rounding the edge is a perfect compliment. Thank you.

Bro, I just found your channel, and I am loving it! I love knives and know how to sharpen them. But you have shown me things I've never known. I've got some binge watching to do.

[@EPeltzer]

Every single household in the entire world has a kitchen knife or five that need sharpening. Pretty much. So that's as big a potential audience as you could imagine. As opposed to hunting, camping, self defense knife aficionados, yes there are quite a few, but nothing like, well, everyone. And yes the big difference is the blades are longer. I'm a big fan of the channel but really mostly for chef's knives. Good to see this vid.

[@lotheravanti4295]

I got into this dude's channel for my kitchen knives

[@connorjan]

[@hisokamorow6709]

It might be boring for you to do and for people to sit through. But for those that are the kinda people that need to SEE to learn. This video is HUGE! As the other lads mention, slap a few different types of knives, curves, single-side bevels, etc, and we are set! Thank you for this !

[@frankbrowning328]

I would have to disagree with a kitchen knife video being boring as it requires a bit different procedure than say a 3'' sheep's foot blade that most anyone can figure out and do. What I mean by this is explained in the video in how to accommodate a 10''+ blade on a 3''X8'' stone or an even smaller stone.

[@Rye_Bread704]

When I was first learning how to sharpen I felt it more difficult to sharpen a large kitchen knife. When I did get to sharpen a kitchen I found it was much easier than a small knife

[@sibylle_p]

Same here!

[@danielbottner7700]

Ignoring the blade chips yields 5x to 10x relative blade life. This preserves the thinnest portion of the blade extending the practical life of the knife. Preservation of the thinnest portions of the blade is very important to reduce cutting force. This is especially important when cutting in high density foods like sweet potatoes. My preference for kitchen knives are blades thinned to 0.005 to 0.006 behind the cutting edge. The relatively small cutting edges require only a couple of light passes per-side. Your practical advice is always appreciated, a real service to people around the world..

[@IcecalGamer]

From what i know, 99.99% of the cheep knives are the same. The differences are design and handle material wise (wood/plastic/ metal /w.e). Few brands (.01) actually have a great out of box edge, but if you've watched this channel you can sharpen them in 5 min, even on a brick.

[@tavern.keeper]

The plain, cheap knives made for food service workers are all you need. You can spend 20x more on super knives made from Japanese steel or whatever, but they won't cut 20x better. They're maybe 10% better. Buy the cheap Mercer knives with the white plastic handle, or go to a local restaurant supply store and get whatever they have on the shelf.

[@Greg_Chock]

I'll second @tavern.keepers recommendation. Besides Mercer Culinary, I also have a Dexter Russell, Victorinox and Tramontina (yes the machete maker) kitchen knives. A hidden gem is the Cangshan Top Cut series using 14C28N steel with non-crazy handles. I wish I could get some of the Morakniv Frost series kitchen knives.

[@Psyytrance00]

I'm reading comments and i can tell you right now:He can't help you to hold a consistent angle,this is something you will achieve over time. It comes naturally. So it doesn't matter if you sharpening Santoku or any other knife. Use a half of thumb technique,if the knife is sharpened to a higher angle rework it on coarse stone where you feel comfortable with it. It just requires practice.

I think the wobbly table might help give people the idea of how much pressure one uses, particularly in course vs fine grits. You don't have to ape it, just nice firm pressure and slack off as you get your edge.

It's possible, with a round whetstone/rod/cone, sharpening each indentation, one at the time. (usually the serrations are only on one side. The other side is sharpened normally) Not a complicated concept, but I imagine it's hell to actually do. How you're supposed to strop it, however, I dunno.
