Quick demo & explanation of “why paper cut test is total Bu&^ Sh*t”.
And my “rolled up towel cut” is NOT a test, it’s just a demonstration.
I don’t need to cut anything to “test” an edge.
Murray Carter’s three-finger test, sharpie test, that’s all I need to check the edge.

as a professional sharpener, yes you are right, the paper cut test as a test for sharpness is bullshit. But, again as a professional sharpener, I test all my knives with paper, but i am not testing sharpness. I know the knife is sharp, after i sharpen it, and I use the paper to test for consistency and if my burr removal is complete. the paper will act a certain ways if there is a problem, and it allows me to detect the issue before giving it back to the customer. the main part is consistency in testing material, to be able to get consistence results. your awesome, and i love your videos

Thanks for the comment. Yeah, I understand your point perfectly. Also, when you're sharpening the edged tools for the clients, things must be perfect before returning to the customers. There's a difference between sharpening your own working tool and sharpening the customer's knives. Nice to hear from the professionals!😃

Your perspective is so refreshing, cheers. I really enjoyed your last vid at work, walking the talk. A few days ago I helped my friend out at his restaurant, the guy with all the Japanese knives I sharpen and have to admit to feeling quietly proud watching him using his knives as smoothly and accurately as you. It's a real pleasure to see and in a small way be part of. I laughed the moment I saw the title of this video and totally agree. Having said that my eyes are old and a paper test is a good way for me to find tiny chips in a blade I may miss at first look, saves me a lot of time when I know I have a clean edge from the first rough stone. #600 is enough to shave paper but it's not exactly a refined edge. Will have a look at your new knife vid later. Thank you and all the best.

I said this in the reply to another comment. I DO understand professional sharpeners using paper to check the chip, incomplete burr removal. It is sad, annoying, that so many RU-vidrs spread the wrong info. BTW, I'm still trying to make damaged tip fixing video. Maybe I can include chipping removal into the same video.

Thank you for the video. Actually, I like outdoors, so that tactical kitchen knife is really interesting.

@MonsterS4R996 Месяц назад

Hi. Yeah, even in traditional Japanese cooking knives, there's a crossover of (sort of) outdoor and cooking knife. Funayuki is one. The one that'd be carried on boat, and takes care of cleaning up the fish to cooking, preparing the meal (on boat). "Makiri", which is a traditional all purpose edged tool for "Matagi"(do the google search, please), which is designed to be a utility knife in the woods, cooking knife in the hut, AND, the last line of defense against the bear attack !😮

@MonsterS4R996 Oh, this is really interesting! I'll do some research! ありがとうございました❗

We've also learned which is the best option to fight a bear : D 7:51

😁 I can probably make a video about this... see the reply to above comment. Thanks for leaving comment.

I noticed that Tactical Chef's Knife recently and had a look at the website. Interesting knives, but not really for me. Too expensive for a start. And I don't really need a knife that bridges those categories. I'm not fighting anybody with my knives. And there are so many great kitchen knives out there at around half that price, I'm just not seeing it. There are no bears in the UK. But I'm not their primary market, I guess. I'm never dropping $20,000 on one of those stone knife blocks that New West Knives sell.

@MonsterS4R996 Месяц назад

Yes, that's what I feel like, except for the part I actually spent some money for purchasing that knife. Do I really need that knife? No. Did I buy it for making RU-vid video? No. I was genuinely interested in this blade design, (and grip design and sheath, too. but, mostly for the blade design.) $450 is probably too much $$ (or so it seems) for a lot of people. BUT, I think this is (far) better deal than Sp&derc* Spid%eCh@f (MSRP over $400, street price around $300), because the knife is actually usable for cooking. Thanks for the honest opinion😃
