Hapstone Sharpener Use and Review 

I like the Hapstone system as it is very versatile. The RS Black system you're using is worth the extra money as it's cheaper than buying the angle finder, screw driver , blade stop separately. Hapstone sells Naniwa stones and Kuromaku stones for it, and a lot more.

Couple points I missed. The stone holder is spring tensioned so it's not necessary to loosen the screw on the front of the holder to change stones. It’s adjustable for using different size stones 6” vs 4”. The knob at the back of the rotating clamp assembly is to adjust the detent. It’s not necessary to tighten it once it’s adjusted properly. There is a micro adjustment on the top of the pedestal.

I make handles for the Hapstone RS that stops the rod from poking you in the hand as you use it. If you are interested let me know and I can provide more information. Thanks for the video!!!!

Waiitttii wait wait sharpening i v just been keeping buying kew knives ..... what socrcery is this !?!!?

Thanks for the look and demo Kevin, looking to purchase one soon and tore between TS Prof and Hapstone 😎

265? I just ordered one two days ago directly from hapstones New Jersey warehouse for 199 shipped. I got some of their premium diamond stones as well and they were pricey for sure. but 265 is pretty high from what I saw.

I like this type of video. One issue I like addressed is service and spare parts. In this case extra screws for the clamps etc, in an ideal world they would be included in kit.🎉
