The best way to tell if your knife is sharp (stop cutting paper) 

Saws fingers with knife “I’m not in any danger “ proceeds to cut fingers

don't do this with Australian strawberries they will dull the knife

"You dont want to cut your fingers, if that makes sense." It does. It does make sense.

Ay, when i thought i wanted to be a chef twenty-something years ago, we used to do this with our chefs knives, except we used tomatoes and not strawberries.

I would like to see this done with the same model of knife with the different edge to see if it makes a difference instead of two different models of knife.

Carter’s Three finger test is indeed the best in my experience.

This completely changed the way I approach sharpness. Thank you.

I use the fingernail method. If it bites with the weight of the blade, it's sharp. If it slides off, it's not.

"stop cutting paper and start cutting yourself!"

Bro watching him do the 3-finger test gave me major anxiety

Great analogy! Makes perfect sense dude! you earned my subscription. Keep it up!

Your videos have an interesting perspective. Thanks and keep it up. Subscribed

So your saying I have to buy a ton of fruit now to test my knives instead of all this junk mail I have?!? Ughhh

Great information! Thanks for all the knife videos

This best way to test sharpness of a blade, You drag it across the surface of a piece of paper not the edge. i used to sharpen my blade and do the edge of paper test, and thought my blades where sharp, until one day a buddy of mine was sharpening his blade, and dragged it across the surface, (not the edge) of the paper slowly cutting it into long strips like nothing. Edge of paper gives the right resistance for the blade to catch, but the surface is smooth and takes a razor sharp edge to catch.

Holy crap. This is a great vid. Awesome bro

Good topic. Slicing folded paper towel also works well to check for slicing aggression.

"something like this"... A strawberry?

Good video. Taught me a few things...

Good information here, I enjoyed the video.
