Why Chefs Don't Like This Knife

[@absumption894]

Stopped by your Howie’s location a couple weeks ago and agree it’s a great place to offer sharpening services! High visibility from SG Bl and Duarte. Being at Howie’s and next to San Marino/East San Gabriel means you get higher income and more discerning customers. They are more likely to be informed about the need to sharpen knives and are more enthusiastic cooks/foodies. You may also do good business at the Trader Joe’s/CVS right up the street, or any supermarket in South Pasadena.

Those close up DJI camera shots are incredible and really help me as the viewer get a better feel and understanding of the flow, movement and rhythm of your work.

[@jaybrown3953]

You have 3 machines on the front table, does each machine have different grit on the belts so you can move to each machine instead of changing belts every time?

[@billmoody9736]

i hope you're just busy and haven't stopped making videos - I have a kalamazoo and may try to modify it like yours. My favorite belt is the leather one, just finishes off the knife so well. Thanks for making your videos.

[@oweeboy8220]

You resonated with your audience for sure, I'm a young sharpener looking to start small throughout the neighborhood. Still working on stones but as I grow my customer base and make a little profit I might update to a belt system similar to yours. It would be awesome to have a little chat regarding how you started all of this, and some of the specifics in the industry.

[@stevenshewfelt888]

New subsciber from Fairbanks Alaska about to start my own knife sharpening service , and i only have one question for you..your trays you use to hold your customers knives in...where did you get them and how much are they each? by the way , i love your content and you are one of my top 3 inspirations for helping me get my knife sharpening business off the ground thank you

[@robbabcock_]

I'd also like to see a video on your setup! I run a Kalamazoo but a step down from what you're using. Are those stock plattens or mods/aftermarket?

[@farikesid]

love the interactions with your customers and people

[@alexburman6496]

Dude I really enjoy your videos, hopefully you’ll upload another one soon

[@LoboSmoke]

Interesting setup! love your machines. You should make a video on your machines!

[@ShowAndTool]

Looks like Kalamazoo 1SMVP 1 X 42 Inch

[@twatmunro]

Nice job with that Shun. I wanna see more before and after.

[@TdSharp]

Hi steven, do you ever sharpen scissors? If so, would you be willing to do a tutorial? I just started knife sharpening on the side and literally had my first actual customer this afternoon. One of the first requests i got online was scissor sharpening.

[@korey8706]

Keep some Super Glue with you for your cuts. Little piece of paper towel and Super Glue and you're back in action

[@outdoormanwheeler9753]

This is awesome. I’m so glad I found this content.

[@dhoiten22]

Great video! What machines are you using? 2x42"?

[@dirklouw2030]

😊

[@TheMangrovejack1]

i watch Curry cutlery , as well as just finding your video's, I do sharpening a well but more as a hobby , I'm in Australia by the way. like you i get some very damaged edges, , i generally sort them on a white allox wheel on a grinder. but i have just acquired a Ryobi 1 x 30 belt grinder with a 5" disc, and mitre table. I currently use a wet stone grinder , then a 600Grit oil stone and hone on a MDF wheel with hyperfin metal polish, i find this works well for me , but I'm always looking for better options, like you I also don't charge as much as others , as i find people are more likely to come back if you do a good job and don't rip them off. Some sharpeners down here charge $1.00 a blade inch, i charge a flat rate, $5.00 a blade and if damaged an extra $5.00 to rectify. cheers from Australia. good videos, may be a bit more on your sharpening method , the belt grits and technique, please

... videos* - plural, no apostrophe / whetstone* (from "to whet" = to sharpen) / You don't put spaces before commas,* only after.

[@redangrybird7564]

Hi Steven, Your videos are inspiring me and your smile makes me believe I can be successful starting a sharpening business.

[@lilstarship34]

Watched this while high, didn’t know knife sharpening could be so interesting haha. Keep it up, this is great content ❤❤

[@_hi_pwr]

Anythings entertaining if you have a good personality

[@Straightfromshibuya]

Would love a video on knife reviews shun vs. Miyabi and other Japanese alternatives you would recommend.

[@bhunt919]

Would love to see you sharpen some folding knives. I can send you some higher end production folders if you want to make some content.

[@michaelbradley7529]

Sounds like someone fishing for some free sharpening. 🤔

[@MrJbell14]

Another great video! Love the knife POVs

[@robertbarrett2245]

Like your videos. I was wondering what wheel you use on a scalloped knife?

[@TacticoolCraig]

Aren’t cutco knives replaced or sharpened for free?

[@TheRusk123]

i know this video is old, but the zwilling pro series has the same handle, but even better i think and the blade is also better, maybe check that out !

[@justinwolf4614]

What belt grinders are you using I’m looking to start a sharpening service like yours in Chicago

[@robertblack4262]

So what knives would you recommend for professionals who need something top quality?

[@owenrichardson1419]

Hi, what grit are you using to sharpen?

[@rowboat1972]

Dude! Whats the denim pillow for? 🙏🙏🙏

[@mattyslicks]

Any thoughts on the Zwilling bob kramer knives?

[@cesarlozano8262]

What’s the name of your belt sharpener equipment?

[@grandhighpuba]

Where do you get your knife trays?

[@JesusRuiz-ef9ef]

Anyone know where I can get those safety goggles??

[@da54177]

Pick up some 3m Nexcare bandages, I find they're the only ones that really stick to my hands!

[@timyurkovich2412]

Steven, what is your thoughts on the new Magna Cut Steel ?

[@shelbyMarie-ux9ok]

Can you sharpen machetes scaple sharp

[@jeffcaptain6738]

So are you sharpening all the knifes at the same angle?

[@ScrapesDaFleur]

More vids dude!

[@Redact63Lluks]

I enjoy a high end kitchen knife that is fairly soft, it makes them take a hone much better and you can stay razor sharp if you hone like a butcher.

[@kukri510]

how much experience do you have in knife sharpening? love your vids!

[@lgninjalo]

"I don't see any microscopic teeth."

[@AllenGoodman]

Getcha some super glue for those little knife nicks, works great !

[@danoking69]

That's wasn't a lamb chop. that was Rack of Lamb my dude. Like the vids. Rock on.

[@ia6980]

So belts although fast method of sharpening, eats up metal very quickly, so its good for kitchen aid knives but bad for expensive knives where you want knife to last

[@kreestoph]

Made in had a 12.5 degree edge and modern zwilling are 15, so naturally made in will roll faster

[@einundsiebenziger5488]

12.5° is way too steep of an angle for the soft steel Made In uses to maintain.

[@diegoperceval8896]

De onde você é?

[@RichardDavis-g5b]

Steven, what are you stropping on? The pillow looking thing

[@Dctctx]

Denim

[@prestonstoner2008]

How can I get a hold of one of those wallets?

[@MrBonham]

I love your videos so much.

[@CaliAAA72]

I hope you are doing well and continue to make videos.

[@mattnejmanowski631]

ive ran into misen knives that have pits and soft spots.

[@jessiesim]

Yes!! Sunblock is important 😎

[@cameroneib9372]

How do you feel about global knives?

[@dook228]

Where is the new content!!??

[@frankthespank]

Do you do mail-order sharpening? Like.. can I send you some knives to sharpen? You get my knives, give me an estimate along with a link to your favorite payment method and you mail ‘em back to me…? 🙂

[@steven_sharpens]

Yup! Message me on Instagram @steven_sharpens

[@jesterskull38]

New skin for the cuts

[@Sigpilot97]

Sir, you’ve got to do equipment video. What you like, need and dislike. How to video.

[@temurisamxaradze5694]

Gud bois👍

[@manchagojohnsonmanchago6367]

Change to a large waterwheel not the belts. Its far better. One flat japanese wheel and one round.. Depending the blades, you will never look at a belt again

[@MrBonham]

11 months and no new video?!?

[@geocortez13]

Bro do you really need those huge machines. I’m discouraged
