We will get them in time. I appreciate it. We try to keep it simple and real. We always do everything on camera so there's no movie magic. Thanks for coming and supporting. We're going to get there together. You were in at the beginning and we appreciate you being here.
Man, this was helpful! And the fact that you used mashed potatoes and cheese to illustrate the steel was both entertaining and EXTREMELY helpful in teaching me. Classic!! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video!!
Thank you and I'm glad you liked it. I thought it was originally and unique. We are going to shoot these videos again, because some people aren't going back far enough in the library to find them.
Thank you so much! We are definitely trying to do some different things. I'm glad you like it and we are open to any suggestions you may have. We have a lot of stuff we're working on.
Your support is all we have and it’s enough. We’re trying to come up with new ideas. We have so many new ideas. We’re thankful for you being here and your words mean everything. Don’t be afraid to tell us what we’re doing wrong. As we grow will try to get better. God bless you for taking the time
But I had done it the other way roound - first on the 8k stone and than finally on the strop. For my daily maintenance, I only use the strop. The stone i would use if I can feel that somewhere the edge is folded over. I often test it with my nails. Works good for me.
@@mytech6779 I’m sorry you’re not understanding what was going on in that video. I was showing you how to do the technique. First I showed you on leather. Then I showed you the same technique on Stone. I wasn’t insinuating that you go from leather to stone. I’m just showing how little pressure you’re using. I’m just showing the direction of the tip or the heel. At no point in time did I say to go from the lather to the stone. If you watch the entire series you’ll have much more detailed information. If you listen to the entire video then you would’ve understood what was going on to that point. I’m just moving the knife from one to the other to showcase the technique itself. I said if you use it on the stone and you need some water. A lot of people do the technique just on stone and they never go to leather. I don’t recommend it but that is exactly what people do. I don’t say to go from the leather to the stone. I’m just showing the technique
Congratulations yourself! I did not have the tester when I got it over a year ago. As you know, there’s nothing like one of these. God bless and thank you for the compliment. If you are subscribed then you are entered into the knife giveaway. Make sure your subscription is public and not set to private like it is in the default
The give helps to rip away any loose particles. It's really good if you use diamond emulsion. You can smooth the Apex with the stone but you may not always rip off the extra metal
That is the edge that is set by the factory. I believe, it is their belief that that is more of a laser edge. I also believe that once you on the knife, it is yours to do whatever you want to do.
@@simptrix007 I'm saying you're allowed to sharpen it to a 50-50 when it's yours. I don't think most people actually sharpen things to a 50-50. I'm going to be doing a video on this. If you sharpen than you know that we spend a lot of time on the first burr. Don't you think people generally don't spend an equal amount of time on the opposite side? I think people are accidentally doing a 70-30 or a 60-40. I don't think it's their intention. When I sharpen the knife, I'm not actually trying to make it a 50-50. Most people are trying to just make a new edge on their dominant side and then they flip the knife over. I think in the end they end up doing it a little closer to 70-30. That's a video coming up in a couple weeks. Like I said, it's your knife, you can do whatever you want to. The snake is a laser so at this level it is microscopic. I'm sorry for the confusion. By the way, my email is in my about. You can always reach out! We're in this together. Have fun
You’re more than welcome to always leave suggestions. Everyone has different ways they process information. I am a visual learner. Some people are quick and some people need you to really take the time. I’m glad that you process information faster than others. We need to make sure that the other people get it. I’m sorry if it seems overly complicated to you but to some people it makes things a little clearer for them.
