This is the video. I almost never comment on RU-vid but I have to express how great of a video this is. I've always had it on my "to-do" to learn how to properly sharpen knives. There have been quite a number of cool knives over the years I wanted to buy but couldn't justify the purchase because I knew once it got dull, I wouldn't get my money's worth as I couldn't resharpen it. I've tried a number of times to learn knife sharpening off the internet and always had trouble. I've bought angle guides, systems, and all sorts of crap since I was never able to get freehand sharpening to work for me, and none of them ever gave me good results. I got the itch again recently and decided "screw it" and purchased some stones and cheap knives to take another crack at it. While waiting for them in the mail I found this video, and finally, FINALLY someone explained it in a way that I knew what was going on! Countless of these videos talk about specific products and just go "this is how I do it, you'll get a feel for it" without explaining what to look for. I decided to try what you described on what I already had handy: a chipped and dull blade on a plier multi-tool and some crummy home-depot sandpaper adhered to scrap wood instead of a stone. Even with these exceedingly low quality "stones", for the first time ever I got a blade from being too worn to be useful to being able to cut hair/paper! Maybe it's silly to be excited about such a basic thing, and I still have a lot to learn, but I can't thank you enough for providing this content to those of us who were never taught in person. To anyone reading this thinking they can't sharpen a knife free-handed, if I can after as man failures as I have had, keep at it because you can too!

When i installed ceiling tiles we would sharpen our razor blades. The tiles had silica in them and would dull up a blade within a few tiles. I would sharpen those razors down to a nub before swapping blades. Managing that bur was the key. Another thing that i have picked uo recently is stropping. With a leather strop and polishing compound you can take that "sharp" edge and literaly polish and align the molecules of the edge. Great video Cliff! Keep your edges sharp!

Pretty much what I've learned by trial and error. One thing thing that really helped me out was to pay attention when a guy with wicked sharp knives pulled out his stone and steel. I'm glad I was there and ready to receive the info. He was chasing that burr and adjusting constantly. Toward the end he felt for it with his lower lip. I just got a good diamond stone and was amazed how quickly I could form a new bevel on my dull kitchen knives. I quickly found that the hard Arkansas stone (dressed with the diamond stone) was useful for polishing before the steel to finish. One kitchen knife down, many more to go. Nice video. Makes a lot of sense.

Great video. As a professional sharpener I wanted to see if this really is the last video you need 😂 and pretty darn close. Just wanna mention something. That rod that he had is a honing rod and does not remove any steel from the edge. You want sharpen with it. What it's designed to do is realine the edge of a knife making is usable for longer before needing a sharpen. You can so exactly the same thing using the spine of another knife. Point being dont buy a honing steel thinking you can use it to Sharpen a dull knife. P.S. ceramic or diamond rods will remove steel tho but they are something different especially diamond rods which are designed to Sharpen rather than hone.

@CliffGray
@CliffGray 2 года назад
That’s a interesting concept with the beaver tail. I’m sure that works. You know it’s interested because I feel like sharpening is really close to avoidable if a guy watching what he cuts into - hair, bone, etc… and is constantly honing (or light sharpening). I’m sure guys that are using the beaver tail are pretty constant about it, every time they take a rest. I also will touch my knife with the back of another knife - but it only works well for the duration if I do it lightly every chance I get.

I found that going by the burr rather than counting strokes it is so much better. A small handheld microscope to inspect the burr (and eventually the edge) is also very useful in getting an edge silly sharp. Ten strokes each side method means you spend almost as much as time flipping it round than you do sharpening it because I put my knife in a vice and by flipping it round the pressure on the knife is more consistent on both sides of the edge.

I found the easiest way to learn is get some sheet sandpaper(like 100, 500, 1000, or whatever steps you want)and glue. Then glue the paper down on a flat surface so it's tight, flat, and doesn't move. Now you can reshape/reprofile/grind the back/whatever in like 10min. For any knife. Yes I like stones but this is like knife sharpening for dummies.

as you sharpen you can use your fingernail to find and judge the burr keep sharpening the blade till the burr is gone

I find running the edge down some wood as a final step helps remove a stubborn burr

do you have another video i could watch to see when to hone the knife vs sharpening it? from my understanding honing just brings the bur to the midline so should i hone my knife before each heavy use?

I remember dad hated stainless steel in the 60s saying it's hard to sharpen easy to dull.

I've been a butcher for more years than I care to say, I was taught pretty much exactly this method by a very old butcher who worked part time and l quickly got good at sharpening, I even earned extra money Sharpening other people's knives and cleavers.

Great video. Exactly what I told my son when he wanted to learn to sharpen. I said start with a low quality blade. I’ve moved up in the world though, I’m using whet stones. When I was a kid we would use sandstone that we found. 😂
