Nice job! Always looking forward for your uploads, especially because you don't use those pro tools that most of the people have, but basic stuff. Anyway, how is your parkside grinder holding up? I was thinking about getting one because price is decent, is thinning knifes hard on it or it has fine amount of power?

[@dnarvarg]

thanks man, i really appreciate it ! The Parkside belt grinder is fine, for 100€ it’s definitely a safe buy. However if i had to change it i’d probably get a thinner belt, which would allow me to be more precise hopefully. Also the parkside belts aren’t very good so I ordered some better ones, i’ll tell you if it changes anything to my review !

At 7:18 what are those pellets ? Candle wax? Hot glue sliced up? Also on the handle linseed oil or boiled linseed oil? Thanks, great job, makes me want to try it !

[@dnarvarg]

@@daniel189888 it’s hot glue sliced up ! And the oil is boiled linseed oil

[@biscuitkitchentnives]

Nice one! Where do you find the old knives? Ive been looking for some to practice my grinding on.

[@dnarvarg]

@@biscuitkitchentnives thanks ! I find them on eBay

[@ericfg806]

What kind of steel is that? I must have missed that part. It doesn't look clad at all.

[@dnarvarg]

@@ericfg806 no idea about the steel, but yes it’s a mono steel, no cladding here. It must be some Seki Magoroku proprietary carbon steel or something generic. It didn’t feel very hard, probably sub 60 HRC

[@yuvalkaplan8750]

Where are you buying those knives from seems like a great deal

[@dnarvarg]

From eBay

[@yuvalkaplan8750]

From those auctions? I used to do that but there are much less knives on sale recently

[@dnarvarg]

@@yuvalkaplan8750yeah, auctions most of the time. You really gotta look often and pretty deep to find some nice stuff. I got really lucky on this set with some pretty sweet blades

[@marcanthony9963]

Do you resell these knives?

[@dnarvarg]

yep !

[@ft5740]

The green stone is naniwa 1000?

[@dnarvarg]

@@ft5740 yes, Naniwa pro 1000

[@מחשבבגדדי]

where can i get the rusty knives

[@dnarvarg]

On ebay

[@Steven-v6l]

why shorten the tang so much ? electrolysis would have done rust removal better than the vinegar - less metal loss

[@dnarvarg]

you don't need the tang to be very big, having it this short is very common for Japanese knives with wa handles and it helps making the knife lighter. And I don't have the tools to do electrolysis unfortunately ! Im just working with the tools I have

[@Jpapa62]

where can i buy?

[@dnarvarg]

Do you mean this exact knife or rusty knives ?

[@מחשבבגדדי]

can you sell me i am looking for nakiri
