Unbox NEW SHINKO STD-180E Knife Sharpen Machine

[@thepaulhowell]

Why did you remove and not use the angle rest? One important aspect of getting a razor sharp edge is to maintain the exact same angle throughout the sharpening process, particularly when you're turning the blade over and over again.

[@Norhther]

You can get better cutting continuity, but you will get also razor sharp profile without using a guide. Also, the guides only work with straight blades, like a nakiri, no way you can get the same angle with a curved knife

[@cedrics1220]

Ever heard of freehand sharpening? I even use a tormek without a guide and get better and sharper results than everyone with a guide (never seen someone get a sharper knife so far)

[@SNCironman]

Thoughts on the machine? seems pretty usefull as can help to sharpen knives much faster than with stones.

[@rogercrier9115]

Please correct me if I am wrong, but if you let the blade go over the central void in the stone, you risk developing two pressure points at the stones edges, especially if the blade is curved? Would it not be cautious to keep the blade on the flat portions of the stone!

[@sharpedgedxb]

Yes actually is correct, the goal is to have pressure only on 1 side. Due the rotation of the stone I find difficult to use along the stone without passing by the centre. So applying pressure only in a half seems doing the job fine

[@burningbobttv6588]

Did you ever get to try this on any higher HRC Knives?

[@sharpedgedxb]

It is very useful, quick develop a burl, finishing is not there event with 6k stone so i shift with my naniwa 5k and leather strop as final touch

[@SNCironman]

How u see it for profesional use with stones? just thinking that i cant get on doing it professionaly cause using atoma 140 cerax 1k rika 5k and kitayama 8k is exhausting but that machine would sholve that

[@sharpedgedxb]

@@SNCironman it all depends which knife you sharp and how much you charge for it. I suggest to keep hand sharpening with wet stone for good knife then for the other it could help to speed up the process

What you mean overheat, if use stepdown trafo set up, is it

[@generaldistrust]

not sure where u r located, if you have 110v or 220v, one time I understood 1 way, other time it figures the other way around.. is the machine 110v or 220v ?

[@lesterlao]

Equipments from Japan are 100v. Overheating at 110v is surprising. It should not unless transformer power is not enough.

[@andreasjonsson8075]

Is this available for the eu market (sweden) ?

No need converter I mean
