This is the real teaching of knife sharpening technique, thank you very much.

@MrEric0822 3 года назад

Man, this is by far the single best sharpening tutorial anywhere on the web. I had trouble keeping my fingers from bleeding at first due to new diamond stones. Thankfully, that hasn’t been an issue now that they have broken in. I have used this technique for the past couple of week, and it’s made a huge difference in bevel consistency, thus sharpness. I’m still having to work extra hard right at the very tip; my finger wants to leave the stone (on pull stroke) and thumb wants to lay flat (on push stroke) when I get to tippy tip on knives with big bellies. But, overall, this is a game-changer on how to train yourself on getting a consistent edge from heel to tip. Really appreciate you sharing.

BEST FREEHAND TUTORIAL! Love the sharpie line trick! haven't seen that before with "copying" the marking onto thumb for reverse passes. I'm very new at this and just got my first of MANY knives (pockets, chefs, and general kitchen knives) to a polished, hair whittling edge after about 30 mins on 4 stone and a strop. It took so long as I was messing up my angles on the coarser grits when using a pyramid angle finder for beginning references. Excited to try this method right now actually on another one of my cheaper pockets. Cheers!

@Patriot-rising Год назад

I have guides that do the very same thing. Dial up angle clamps are brilliant and they also have rollers on bearings. But if you do not have the equipment this gentleman has the right idea. I myself sharpen with the original direction of the grind. If you are experienced enough you can try the Ken Onion designed Worksharp. I personally am not a huge fan of these type of sharpeners if something goes slightly wrong your blade will pay the price. Another personal favorite is Spydercos sharp maker ceramic. Spyderco makes great ceramics Japan stones also really can put on a very keen edge. Diamond sharpeners are okay in my opinion if you have just regular old knives or kitchen knives. Diamond removes materials fast. Where diamond stones work well is if you are using the knife for cutting boxes or rope. It sharpens and under magnification you will see a jagged edge. Ceramics can put a mirror edge on knives. How experienced you are can make or break a edge.

@Dredster747 Год назад

Great technique, although you really want to keep a puddle (yes, an actual puddle) of krud kutter/something similar on the stone to lubricate and collect the metal shavings, especially on expensive stones like these. Otherwise you're just working the shavings back into your stone and reducing it's cutting ability and overall lifespan. Just a suggestion!

@MrEric0822 4 года назад

Can’t wait to give this finger marking trick a try today! I’m getting much better but still have some consistency issues from side to side, so hoping your method might be the magic I need. Question: Do the plates not destroy your marked finger and thumb as you continue to drag across those diamonds? I know I’ve torn my finger up once just by scrubbing it pretty hard to remove some grit. Didn’t know it was doing damage till it started bleeding!

@NeevesKnives 4 года назад

I have definitely done that, but just let your finger gently go across the stone, when you put the mark on just set your finger there, but when you start to sharpen just let you finger glide without pressure. And this trick will most definitely make your bevels consistent. Just try to replicate the same movements, and with the finger guide it helps you feel the little movements you make like when getting to the tip

@MrEric0822 4 года назад

@@NeevesKnives Great, thanks! I just resharpened a kitchen knife. Found that the "thumb side" was a little more difficult to maintain, and I discovered that I laid it back a little more on that side compared to the other side. But both bevels were consistent from heel to tip, and the knife came out sharp. I think I will get better with more practice, but having your finger/thumb glide across while maintaining contact with the stone along the entire edge does seem like a really good technique in order to achieve consistency. I'm guessing if your finger or thumb comes off the stone at any point, then you have changed angle.

I really gotta get a few nice big stones. Right now I’m sharpening with a diamond rod, a piece of ceramic tile, and a piece of leather belt with a mixture of green buffing compound and toothpaste applied to it. No angle guides, or clamps. I just hold everything in my hands and eyeball it. I get razor sharp edges that I could shave with, but it takes me about an hour to fully sharpen a pocket knife (10-15 minutes to re-sharpen). A good set of stones would cut that time down, and a sharpening system with guide rods would make perfect edges, but unfortunately, I have more time to spare than money. My current “sharpening kit” cost me about $12. Thanks for the guide though, If I get a stone large enough to do this with, I’m gonna try it.

@rickkerans8485 4 года назад

Very good info on sharpening a knife. Would you do the same thing at bottom by plunge as the tip. Especially if there is no sharpening choil? Do you use any water or oil on the stones??

@NeevesKnives 4 года назад

Do the back and forth motion at the heal of a knife with no choil just like I showed with the choil but watch it a little closer so you can make sure you hit it consistently. And I use these ones dry but you can use water, I have other stones that I use a soap and water mix as my oil and then I use just water on my water stones. If you want me to send you a quick clip on Instagram on how to do the heal on a no choil like spyderco, or email. Or tell me the knife and I will find my most similar and send a clip if you need it

I think I heard you say in another video that you did but aren't sure; do you do knife sharpening service? I just picked up the Lionsteel M1 fixed blade thatI want the edge reprofiled. Normally paying someone to do it would be a non starter, and this the second M1 I've owned as well as an M4, and I handled those myself. The difference in this case is that this was a limited run they did using CMP M4 Tool steel. They M390 is supposed to have an HRC of 59-61, while the M4 is 65-66HRC. The M390 was already a difficult steel to work with, but I also had access to a friend's equipment that made it easier, and I won't have access this time around. Plus the M4 is a bit more ambitious than I'm prepared to do at the moment. I figured that once I have the right edge on the M4-tool steel, stropping and cleaning up the edge now and then should be good for a while. Plus I've seen the edges you put on and you definitely do a better job than I can. (If you mention that you DO do sharpening in this video, I just haven't started watching it yet, I just went and looked for one of you sharpening videos to pose the question).

@NeevesKnives 4 года назад

If your having a problem seeing a shadow you can do one of two things, look for the edge to reflect back at you at the heal, or just pick an angle and dont think to hard about it, basically just attempt to match it up but it wont matter if your slightly off, as long as you stick with the angle you pick until its finished. And yes I always get a burr from every stone. Its ok to have a very small burr, that way your losing less steel. It will be way easier to get a burr on all the higher grits if you get a burr from heal to tip off your first stone, with each side you do

You should have both, so if you barely used your knife then just strop, if the strop isnt doing justice then hone and strop, after doing that a bunch of times and its not doing any justice time to sharpen, it also works great for deburring an edge when sharpening, you always want to have very very light pressure almost none at all

Hey brother. I’ve seen you use a lot of different stones. I would like to get a set of stones and leather strop along with the compound. What would you recommend. I would like something of high quality. Great video as always. Thx

@NeevesKnives Год назад

VENEV DIAMOND PLATES 3X8 amzn.to/3saACLG These are my favorite stones of all stones they are resin bonded diamond stones and are incredible, i have videos talking about them, as far as favorite stropping compound get gunny juice diamond emulsion, you can start with 6 micron then get the others you desire amzn.to/3VKolLn

@thegrimmer 2 года назад

if the blade edge has a curvature to it and you keep a consistent angle on the stone, you are giving different parts of the blade different angles of sharpening by definition

@hugybgrl 2 года назад

That's why he is raising the heel of the blade when moving towards the tip.

@mikeking6686 4 года назад

GOOD JOB, WHAT MAGNIFICATION DO YOU USE TO LOOK AT THE EDGE? THANKS

@NeevesKnives 4 года назад

😆 litterally a magnifying glass that you would read a book with.

@nightwalker2830 4 месяца назад

It also depends on your skill level 2 cause you might know some but if your not really sure u might just keep messing up

@Hungrybird474 2 года назад

The white compound is for silver and gold so it’s more fine .

@hugybgrl 2 года назад

Each company could choose its color code. In THIS case, the green one is finer.

@LucasStaus 3 года назад

Can you elaborate on what you mean to find the angle once the shadow disappears? Are you talking about just moving the blade able from flat until the visible gap between the existing edge and the stone become flush/closed?

@LucasStaus 3 года назад

Also, I was trying the diamond stones last night on an Aus-8 old hunting knife, and started with 300 grit....I gave it a lot of passes, probably 40 or so on each side, and I was trying to keep going until I detected a burr. I'm having trouble detecting the burr. Can you detail more on techniques about finding the burr?

@NeevesKnives 3 года назад

Absolutely, I have a video coming soon that should answer all those questions, also i did a step by step video that might help. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-npEubLayJ7k.html

How would compare diamond stones to Japanese water stones? I have sharpened my whole life on these or on my 2x72 belt grinder but always curious to try something new and different. Great video though glad to see the craft of sharpening isn’t getting lost with all the fixed angle sharpener system popularity.

@NeevesKnives 3 года назад

Diamond cut way faster and leave a more aggressive edge even with polished finishes, and they also work better for super steels imo and tests have shown that the edges last longer when super steels are sharpened with Diamond

@ocalavictory3728 3 года назад

Well...I'm guessing I did something wrong. My knife is still rather dull. But wow! The nail of my forefinger and thumb are razor sharp now! Thanks man! 🙂

@NeevesKnives 3 года назад

Watch my video on grit pattern and burrs that's the secret to getting a sharp knife I forget the name of the video but I have an entire play list of Sharpening videos teaching freehand, you don't have to do the finger trick if you can hold your angle, but you do have to follow the grit and burr

@ocalavictory3728 3 года назад

@@NeevesKnives All joking aside, I think the technique you taught, using forefinger and thumb as an angle guide, is a great idea. I'm gonna try it. The further I profile above 15 degrees, the more trouble I have keeping a consistent angle. I think this will help. And I'll also check out you video on grit patterns and burrs. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. 🙂👍
