- Worksharp makes some of the best sharpeners in the Business. Check them out here: bit.ly/3CAi4JW
We have done a few a few paper cut tests on the Channel. This video we decided to head to Blade Show and do our biggest paper cut challenge yet. We are on a mission to find the best paper cutter in Atlanta... Next stop, the world!
How to not suck at this:
1. Choose a knife with Thin blade stock
2. Also look for something Thin behind the edge
3. Sharpened to really high grit for enhanced push cutting
4. Cut close to where you are pinching the paper
5.Utilize a slicing motion through the paper
6. If all else fails ask to borrow the winners knife
56 is insane, especially with how close Cole was shaving the paper too. Brilliant technique, excellent knife and clearly fantastic sharpness. That man knows his stuff.
If you can manage to not "run out" the edge, I think cutting closer is better. Because the cut off has less total weight, and thus sags less during the cut.
LOL the guy pulls out scissors, classic.
Thanks!😉
Scissors technically 2 knife blades bolted together lol
Ahh TH-cam showed me this comment as the banner comment, unfortunate spoilers
@@EDCNC-YTIt was a ballsy move. Loved it.
The true winner! 😂
Goes to show that it doesn't really matter if you have a $100+ knife to cut with, it's how you sharpen it and your technique. Great video Zac!
If I wasn't held up in Germany I would have stepped up with 8Cr13MoV just to make that point!
@nedkelly3436 lol
And I gotta GOTTA give a huge shoutout to Jamie and his creative ability to edit these videos..... its literally pure gold.......I didn't even realize until after it was over.... lol your videos literally make me smile and or laugh almost the entire time watching!!!! You guys keep me captivated the entire time!!!! So thank you for that.... your whole style the way you guys make content!!!!!!! Its really good guys!!!!
Thanks!
Go Bills!!!
It was cool to meet you Zac! I had a blast!
Great job man !
Proof you don't need to spend 100s of dollars to get a good cutting knife. The fact that he won with a $70 Chinese knife makes it even better. Love my elementum!
Was awesome to compete! 😂 my bro represented well!!
Legend!
Loved this one Zac, awesome technique from Cole, but can't discount how capable the worksharp precision adjust is when used properly.
Great video, like seeing what knives ppl actually have instead of some type of advertisement to sale a specific brand.
Ayyy Melissa Backwoods cameo at 8:27 - Surprised she didn't get in on the action!
Technique is EveryThing !
Zac, thank you for the positive attitude and enthusiasm you bring to all the Blade Shows! This was such a cool challenge and you should do it every year 😂
she was there??
I absolutely love that he did it with an Elementum.
Me too 🤙🏼😉
@@TysingerKnifeandTool Whoa what!? It's you! 😂 Congrats on getting 1st place. You killed it.
@@jtg_edc Thank you!
Loved the video Zac. Fun content and great to see people we watch along side blade show patrons. Fun stuff!!!
it's all about how you hold the paper and orientation to the knife to the paper with straight knife strokes.
Y’all are awesome!! You took it way too easy on me! 😂 Keep it up, fellas. Thanks for being so cool!
Next year you'll get it!
Thanks for showing up every day!
@@The4cp thanks for the vote of confidence!
@@zacinthewild I think it’s more appropriate for me to thank you for chance after chance! Keep the killer content coming!!
You're now a legend to me my friend!! Can't wait to see next year.
Great video, technique is very important as well as blade geometry and edge sharpness, Frankie and Bird are a couple of my favorite reviewers. Love this stuff, well done and thanks.
Thanks Tim 👋
That was a fun video! Very entertaining! Good job Zack!
I wanted to do this but figured you'd be walking around. I'll definitely be hitting this booth next year! Great video and big congrats to the winner, that was incredibly impressive!
Fun video Zac and Jaime. Congratulations to that guy with the elementum. Cool
To see Frankie and Bird.
Dang, what a great commercial for the Precision Adjust 💪
These cutting videos are always so fun to watch! Thanks for always making great community video content!
Civivi should give that one guy a new elementum... dang that was impressive
One hundred percent!!!
Super fun video, you guys are killing it!
This was awesome ! Thanks guys!!
AMAZING video!!!! Thanks Zac!!
This was so fun to watch thanks man ❤
Congarts on 100k Zac and Jamie! Well deserved.
🎉
Frankie and Bird🥰 much love for them both. Great folks!
Much appreciated 😆😆
That dude bring out utility knives is savage 😂
@maxlvledc is a beast!
This was amazing. I loved it. It's so simple, pure fun.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love my Work Sharp Precision. All my knives have mirror edges. I use 3M lapping films after I re-profile with the Precision. Thanks Zac. It was fun. 🔪🎸
You make these things so much fun I stayed up late last night watching this What a hoot Now I have to figure out how to get my knives a whole lot sharper
Is it just printer paper? How wide was it? Id like to know so i can see how well i can do. This is a great challenge because its a mix of knife sharpness, edge angle and geometry as well as technique. You can have a very sharp knife but if you haven't cut a lot of paper you won't do that well.
Prop to the winner for getting 27 and then coming back and doubling his result even when he didn't need to. 55 push cuts without messing up is really impressive.
Ya Zac, give us the regulation parameters please. What's the official width?
I LMFAO fo reals!!!! Best time watching a video all flipping week!!! Thx so much Zack!!!
Hilarious that the cheapest knife was the winner 😂
That was kinda delicious.
I think we know who won lol that was crazy 55 cut that's awesome!!
I need that mini OTF in my life. Lol. This looked like a fun contest.
Man that Elementum was sharp, always appreciate the video quality from that Sony camera.
Such a great contest idea.
Man, I was rooting for Harrison on day 3.
😂 Sorry to let you down. It wasn’t meant to be, I suppose! I vow to do better next year. I’d vow to do worse, but that would be impossible! 😂
That dude prove civivi elementum is very great knives for edc...
The Ego on that bird guy. He cant give up his pride
Fun contest. It seems to be about paper grain and angle of attack. My nakiri kitchen blade would have been a contender! 👍 😃
funny to see the elementum do so well. hollow grinds are great and good geometry and thickness behind edge matter more than steel and polish.
Fun video!
I was watching this and you said its not that easy, try it at home. So no joke I pulled out one of my balisongs and was able to do it like 10 times before i was satisfied. Lol ill see you next year!
I was at blade show and didn’t know this was going on
That was a lot of fun!
It's not the knife, it''s not always the person. It's how you holds the paper.! Cowabunga Zac in the Wild.
Wooo button lock! time to get a 3rd elementum
Cole just sold many Elementums and Precision Adjust systems 😂
Should I get commission? Haha
@@TysingerKnifeandTool 😂👍 well, that version of the Elementum on my to do list again!
Thanks for the fun content. I have to make it to blade show ( especially because I’m only about 4 hours away ). Maybe next year. Ps . Happy fathers to all the dads out there !
Button lock elementum! Ouuuhbb muh Guaaad ! 🤩
Ironically the guy that won 1st (on a Work-Sharp), doesn't need another Work-Sharp.
To bad TSP didn't show up take 1st place.
Brilliant 👏
I need to send all my knives to that dude’s Dad. That’s crazy
He’s a pro for sure! I’ll pass the compliment along!
I’m definitely doing this next year
If the winner already had the system, did he take that home, or did he do the bro thing and pass it down to second place?
Glad everyone liked the scissors!! I’ll be back next year for redemption!!!😉😁
Great!😃👍
That 27 guy knows what's up!
So cool. That is impressive. What a score. Nice job Cole!
Thanks man!
@@TysingerKnifeandTooldude! That was some super sweet technique (which i can only hope to replicate someday) but can you share the specs on your sharpening?
@@davidh9585 my Dad sharpened it for me on the original precision adjust elite. He used a 17° angle I believe.
Best I could do was 63 but that was after quite a few attempts and I can say it really isn’t the blade but is the cutting technique because I never actually sharpened it but still managed it.
Attempts: roughly 6
Zach better have a 7 figure contract from worksharp! 💯
Now that's how you advertise a product !
Which Worksharp model did the winner sharpen on exactly? That's insane
should have done a training montage for the dude that came back 3 times, how is he supposed to epically win at the end without a training montage?!
Pretty awesome the knife that won was sharpened on the precision adjust 😂
My buck 110 still slices better than all my other knives... Can't beat their hollow grind
I would've chosen the button lock elementum as well.
One is for sure, forget the factory edge! Find a really thin convex.
scissors guy for the win lol
I thought Dominick had it with that fastback. I like seeing multiple channel overlap.
Poor Harrison, but he have to know these striders are thick as a crowbar and the factory angels on them are 23-25 ° per side they are anything other than slicey
I take full blame for my performance! As you saw, I came back with the Big Idea Design Ti Pocket Knife on day 3. It’s got a thicker blade stock, too, but comes down to a nice hollow grind BTE. It was strictly technique that hindered me! 😂
@@harrisonspires7777 now you have a whole year to practice good luck
So many people at the blade show having problems trying to be straight 🤔
I'm not interested in paper cuts. I wanna bone cutting sharpness 💀
The top shirt button does not get buttoned without a tie.
*best compesition ever i would beat all with my light sword* 😂
Guess I got some practicing to do lol
I have a problem with beginning tears no matter how much i practice.
that guy should get into the paper cutting industry what a pro!
harrison with the triple 000 i wonder if being a lefty makes his blade angle less cuttable?
Thank you for acknowledging my left-handedness. I hadn’t considered that! I’ll add it to my book of excuses, hahaha.
TYFYS
My button elementum is really my sharpest knife it's the thin grind on the 14c28n that's razor steel made for razors its a great knife
Look dam.... I'm only half way through.... and watching the guy with the elementum....and you guys!!!!! It just shows how a deep hollow grind is life!!!!! Along with technique..... your grind is the second most important part i feel like with a cut test!!!
Zac what paper do you use?
Would've been nice to see everything thing he won
I will admit the shot of the prizes is not great but if you check out 0:37 you can see them all.
So, what are the specs on that paper for educational purposes?
Everybody needs to have a boker mermaid 🧜♀️ in their collection.
And in the end it was a massacre.
Now I'm gonna buy a button lock elementum
Best civivi ad on the internet lol!
I miss going to Blade….
Someone should have brought a Sandrin...
Zach just created something epic! This is going to be a standard event from now on
Whats the name of that giant otf and where can i get one😂
2:11 that's the name
Please please please come and bring this challenge to BladeShowTexas next year!!! ✋🏼🔪 📄 😆👍🏼
just gotta put it out there that the way they gauge the sharpness in this video is really not... good. The fact they have to cut that shape of paper at that angle and it has to go completely parallel to the short side is just not reasonable. also doing it in one really long, smooth, along the edge, SLOWLY?! that is asking for the paper to fold before you can cut it.
use phonebook paper instead of printer, then tell someone to create itty bitty little shavings really quickly, and then cut a standing paper, folded 4 times, and that right there would be a much better contest to actually test someone being good with a knife and its edge.
still really enjoyable, keep it goin zac.
56💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥awesome
I couldn't trust that many people running around with knives near me I've seen too many people get stabbed.
