Sharpening - Ep.2 - Building A Sharpening Tool Kit (What to Buy)

[@frogger1555]

Man , your videos are amazing. You've answered every question I had in my mind about sharpening after watching one of your videos for the first time. Great channel! Cheers from Poland!

[@thomshere]

Very nice of you to share your knowledge! Some people are afraid to teach folks how to do things for fear of them surpassing them. Clearly you're not that way and I sincerely thank you. :)

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Maybe I'm just so overly confident in thinking that no one could surpass my knowledge and skill? ;-) haha Thanks for watching Thom! Happy to share information!

I bought a little diamond/ceramic field sharpener by Work Sharp and have been using it a lot for sharpening quite a few knives without spending a lot of time on them. I'll tell you, I love that thing so far! Great video bud! 👍

You did a good job on on the details. My brother used my axe last week said he could not believe how sharp it was. Good stuff buddy Cheers RH

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Rabbit Hunter thanks buddy! thats awesome!

1. Bastard file, double-sided 2. Rough stone, 200-300 grit 3. Medium stone, 800-1000 grit 4. Fine stone, 3000-6000 grit 5. Leather strop, with green or white paste Possible a 4.5 very fine stone @2000 grit

[@ChadMorgan709]

I'd say you laid it out pretty well. Great video for those new into the hobby and are looking for guidance. Good job bud, and cheers till the next one!

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Chad Morgan thanks Chad!

[@LTT.Official]

Never really considered a file before, thanks for the tips.

[@GregMcCarthyUK]

Great video. I'm just starting out on whetstones. When starting off with the lower grit, how do you know how long to sharpen the knife for before moving up a higher grit?

[@smegmoren370]

You need to form a burr (you will feel it by toutching the edge) on one side of the edge,and then to remove it by sharpening on the other side.

[@RustyGlovebox]

[@reddust4352]

really waiting for your convex

[@GriffinBenchmark]

Red Dust Ditto!

[@ryanmurphy3025]

Where would you place a honing steel on your rough edge - smooth edge spectrum? Just curious.

[@kyle_noseworthy]

+Ryan Murphy hey Ryan! Id place it right around the 200-300 grit stone, but it will generally cut slower!

[@MarkYoungBushcraft]

I know you have water stones but do you have any diamond stones and what are your thoughts on them? How long before you leg will let you get back in the woods?

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Mark Young I like them because they cut quickly, but they wear out. they lose their diamond particle in my experience! not very forgiving for beginners because of its speed. id say ill be able to get on snowshoes within a week or two! hoping!

[@paulwin9036]

Thats actually whats suppose to happen Generally Diamond plates have a hard coating on them to protect them from early wear. AFter us a few ugly knives on it it will cut fast and smooth.Just make sure you buys a High quality stuff from Worksharp,or DMT etc I find the cheep ones wear incredibly fast.

[@malthus101]

so....... everyone uses green strop paste, but I read it's only about 3000 grit. there are red pastes that are 7000... why does nobody use those? Thanks.

[@Rootori4]

I use CrOx equivalent to 30k JIS, get *Lukas feinste Künstlerölfarbe Chromoxid grün stumpf*, but this more for Straight Razor i think, but i testet it on my Mora Companion Carbon MG and it was very good for it.

[@davidstewart2051]

Great video

[@kyle_noseworthy]

David Stewart thanks David!

[@dabj9546]

When you say 200 grit, do you mean JIS?

[@malthus101]

when you say JIS, do you mean jizz?

[@davidhartley6232]

220 pink brick for reprofiling... 325 cerax for rebuilding edge... 800 chosera for sharpening edge... 2k GBofJoy for refining edge... 5k rika for polishing edge... Green loaded strop for final edge of stainless cutlery... 8k kitayama and bare equine strop for final on carbon cutlery.

[@angelomora9789]

1 for us left handers😥👏😊

[@gojartdestani213]

a 1000 gritt stone isnt enough to shave hair >?

[@michealvega1373]

gojart destani it is

[@kyle_noseworthy]

gojart destani a 1000 has to be PERFECT to shave hair. It will manage to clip them roughly without being perfect.

[@Michaeljm84]

👍

[@jackharrhy]

hi sir

[@jpc27210]

i hope you have a cat, if not then i have one and didn't know it

[@kyle_noseworthy]

I don't have a cat? Unsure of what you're saying lol

[@jpc27210]

Weiderfan the background music sounds like a cat meowing

[@knifesharpeningnorway]

would never go above 3000 for a kitchen or any other thing thats a axe or outdoors knife etc since it needs to bite in tomato or pig skin etc etc only a yanagiba or takobiki etc needs above 3k and needs about 6-8k but will only be used for fish. other than that a strop is always very good and the rest of the video too 😊

[@YknotLearnall]

Of all your knife sharpening vids you got nothing on sharpening a folder with partial serrated edge....? Damn

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Sarry! haha
