I remember when I was a child .my dad sharpening up all the kitchen, knives on the wet stone . Fabulous video thanks for sharing and a memory for me as a child 😊
Hi Dan, good to see you, really appreciate the tutorial, ive always wondered how to use a wet stone, going to have a go at sharpening now. Have a great week xx
Great video! My Dad was a meat cutter for Armour Meat company. He had the wet stone. The one that looked like a metal wand with a wooden handle, (I don't know the correct name). And a chain glove made of steal which attached to a leather strap at the wrist with an adjustable buckle to keep the glove on. Our knives were very sharpe!!
Hi Dan, happy Sunday! Thanks for the info. I will now go and sharpen some dull knives around here. The ones I have are for the kitchen, but I assume the process would be similar. Hope you have a terrific week!
Just yesterday I was wishing I knew how to use the whetstone that came with my kitchen knives, which have gotten dull. I'll put your tutorial to use today. Thanks!
Great informative video thankyou ❤. My ex had a whet stone he sharpened all ou knives etc, I've since bought several knife sharpeners, they are not as good but they do help a little xx
Very helpful, Dan. Thank you. One question: in the kitchen I sharpen knives and scissors with a wetstone or a carbon steel. Does the carbon steel do the same job as a leather strap?
Thank you. Well, actually, the carbon steel or rod sharpener you mention is a slightly different tool. It's a honing tool, meaning it will keep your knife sharp, but it will not directly improve the sharpness. So a direct answer would be no, Strapping ads that 'cut through tomato skin' sharpness.
@@SimpleLifePortugal Okay, thanks. So I sharpen with wet-stone and 'polish' or maintain sharpness with steel rod. I notice chefs apply the steel rod to their knives 'blade-edge first'.
