this man has so much knowledge its crazy. Its even more impressive that every sentence he says is informative, and he doesnt repeat himself.
There's a small amount of irony that this video comes out the week after I purchased stones for my knives at home! But it's alright because I actually reached out to David after remembering the wonderful videos you did with him Hiro, David was very patient and knowledgeable and helped me pick out a set of Masahiro 600, 1000, 3000 to get my knife back into shape.
Great Customer Service and Product! I want to thank Mr. Terada for his videos and leading me to David and I want to thank David for his amazing work. I will be seeking KnifeMerchant for all my needs in the future.
Keep up the great work both of you! Now I just have to hone my sharpening skills. :)
I sharpen my missiles with those stones
Lol...!
🤣
I would like, no...I would love, no...I require, no...I demand MORE video's of David Holly talking about anything that has to do with knives! No...I need more video's of David Holly talking, period!
I have a small collection of 12 kinds of Mexican sharpening stones, I love them. I got them raw at the old local market, I’ve worked on them for years
I am so glad I found your chanel. David is really full of wisdom. I learned so much just listening to him talk about knives and anything that goes with it.
Love knife merchant! Customer service is the BEST!
Great second review of the many methods for sharpening our knives. After seeing the first Knife Merchant video with Hiro, I went to their website and then contacted them and determined the Miyabi was the choice for my use. After 30+ years of using Henckles 4 Star knives, it was time for a change up. The Miyabi is much lighter and has a very strong sharp edge that has performed super to date. Also, since I needed a curved boning knife, the Wusthof brand worked best due to the curved blade shape preferred. The Knife Merchant has competitive sales prices plus they will sharpen knives by hand to restore the blade as close to original as possible. I have been to several knife shops and they cannot replicate the edge from the factory most of the time so the edge doesn't last as long. Likely because they do not use wet stones choosing a small belt sander instead. Next time, my knives will get a wet stone resharpening. Thanks for the better camera lens and video close ups this time ! Much better for us viewers to see the details this time around so we can makes choices way better. Thanks Mr. Preston.
Wow this was incredibly informative introduction to stones. The folding and carry knife community would benefit greatly from this.
Very informative and the display layout helped immensely as it lead us through each type of stone in a logical manner. Nicely done!
More amazing info from Dave! If anyone is thinking about trying out that $30 Naniwa 1000/3000, it works great! I have been sharpening my knives for work, and using it part time for my sharpening business, and after a little over a year I'm not even half way through each side. Great product for the price.
I was just thinking if that chepa naniwa worked well, is it a soaker ?
I am quite sure that many viewers would appreciate a video with Mr. David Holly, explaining CUTTING BOARDS! His videos with this channel have been a great eye-openers and I think Mr. Holly will help us understand CUTTING BOARDS.
that "Homurra" engraved knife is absolutely gorgeous! Thank you Hiro, Charles, and David for the educational video.
Awesome seeing Dave and Meghan and of course Hiro...But SO MUCH INFO!!
I love these videos at Knife Merchant. Always extremely interesting!
Great video! Dave is such a down to earth gentleman. I love knife merchant! They are the best!
Luv it David for telling the real stories on stones an equipment
Best video I’ve seen on stones and great comprehensive narrative thanks.
Thanks so much for making this video, and the other videos with knifemerchant. Learned a lot.
I know this is an older video but just seeing it as well as the other videos filmed at Knife Merchant. Absolutely loved it! I will be ordering some knives and stones shortly!
Comprehensively informative on the subject.
Love this most informative professional presentation. Learned a lot. Look forward to more. Thank you. Will be checking your site for sure. Greetings from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
Very helpful master hiro !!! Thank you for this video !
Watching from Ukraine! This knowledge is good for everywhere in the world. Thank you. You may not believe but here for the last 100 years people at villages were sharpening their knives on concrete steps at the entrance to the house. And the knives were enough sharp to cut the pigs or cows or even cut the bread for pieces. A few minutes ago I and my daughter were watching "The Last Samurai" of Tom Cruise. Good movie about the Japanese culture and very sharp Japanese swords.
Awesome information on stores I didn't know the stone grades thank yous for that
I'm still loving the 1000g Japanese wetstone I got from KM! When I get the money I will most certainly be picking up one of those new knives.
Great company, I've purchased several Deba and Chinese veggi knives plus stones. They were excellent to work with. Highly recommend them...!
J &S what’s the name of the company?
I have the Naniwa Chosera 800 and 3000..love them!
Very nice whetstone presentation. I am at the beginning with sharpening and I am using mostly chinese whetstone. I can get pretty nice results with some of them. They are getting me to cheap scary sharp. :)
These videos are super help full for every one... Keep making these videos... Thanks karl from Malta
Interesting, will have to check out the Masahiro stones. I use a Suehiro Cerax 1k mainly as my 1k stone and I absolutely love it. I have gone through a couple of them and enjoy the 320 and 700 as well. I also love the Naniwa Chosera 800 and 3k stones, the Shapton Glass 4k and 10k stones, and actually the Shapton Pro 12k is a cool stone. The Suehiro Cerax 1k is just a staple for me. It is simply a great feeling stone.
I never enjoyed cooking till watching your videos❤❤😳
Picked up a Pride abrasive stone a few months back. They cut crazy fast.
Excellent video. Very informative.
Hiro, my friend, g11d aftern11n!!!
What an awesome video and Dave is so nice and knows a lot about knives and sharpening stones... I could listen to him for hours like I like watching Hiro cooking! Thanx to Charles' camera artwork... Thank you so much for sharing!!!
🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪
❤️🇺🇸❤️🇩🇪❤️🇯🇵❤️❤️
Unfortunately, I cannot come to San Diego...
Hello Hiro; Charles & David
Quite an informative video
Many thanks
Diamond stones work well for flattening water stones, and they sharpen knives quicker than water stones, but they do leave the scratches on the edge of the blade. I use diamond stones up to the 1000 grit, polish with a 1000 grit water stone, then use a Chosera 3000 grit, King 8000 grit, and a 16,000 grit Shapton ceramic. Excellent educational video. I do not use Chinese stones, as their quality control is not good, as mentioned here.
Thank you for your comment and for being here also :)
David I bought the masihiro 1000# and 3000#, plus the Kikuichi 6000# from San Diego Knife Merchant, and I love them. And I live in Denmark and come from Greenland.
It's no surprise when you find professionals who are informative and also have the products and know them inside and out while providing excellent service, you will use that source no matter where they are. It's hard enough just finding a source that can help you out and who will be there tomorrow with the same knowledgeable staff. Today, you can't find qualified employees and if you do, they are gone next time you look them up. Thus, you are stuck with uninformed "sales persons" or order takers.
@@Garth2011 So true! All the videos where David and Bill are featured were eyeopeners for me, because they were so knowledgeable and cool! Plus I have a bias for Japanese knives and whetstones.
My to go to sharpening stones are Shaptons (Kuromaku) #1000/2000/5000/8000 and lower grid (#120/220/600) Diasharp diamond plates by DMT. Interested in glass stones, heard they cut very well.
Just signed up for the Knife Merchant mailing list after this video. I has some stuff in an amazon wish list, but hate to use them if I don't have to. Good info and fair prices on their website.
Excellent vid guys.
Loved this one guys!!!
Thank you for another informative video. I just use the underside of my cup ^_^ lol
I'm sure for the butter knives you have a cup is sufficient.
Actually Paul, I use the cup for the Chef's knives not the butter knives, it works great. In between I use the chef's steel.
@@jacquelinesavard9253 everything is relative. The bottom of a cup is not great compared to a proper hone stone either.
You guys are awesome!
👍😉. Thank learns lots. 👍
Beautiful stones and good afternoon
Sharpening stone: what a good day to sharpen and upgrade knives and swords!
Hiro: good afternoon
Woot first :D keep the vids coming, love them :D
I use ceramics for straight razors, and diamond plates to flatten them
I use diamond plates to quickly establish the bevel geometry then ceramics for a polish. For me I want to sharpen my tools and get back to what I am working on. So speed is key. For a quick touch up I have it down to about a minute or so.
Paul Frederick very nice. Yeah I’m thinking about getting some traditional for bevel setting. Maybe a Arkansas for polishing, if I can get my hands on one.
A lot of people gets good results with the shapton glass
@@hisdukeness3037 you can get Arkansas stones if you are willing to pay for them. Just like everything else. I'm still hoping to run across one for a good price in my travels. No luck yet though. I have bought a small pile of other stones in my search though. Pretty much every one I come across. I thought I had an Arkansas on Saturday. Turns out it just had spots of dirt on it though. It is some kind of a sedimentary sandstone. I can't pinpoint exactly what. I haven't even tried it out with anything yet. I just cleaned it up. I guess I'm just collecting stones now?
o wow...I live in San Diego and got happy when I heard that. :)
I need a Chef Knife Like Yours, Hiro 😎
Thank you very much for this video, I'm in the market, and I need all the help I get get making good choices.
Sharpening stone: What a lovely day
Hiro: Good afternoon
G88D AFTERN88N Chef, Very informative. Thanks Hiro much appreciated!!
As far as whetstones go, it doesn't get much better than the naniwa chosera 800, 3000, and the suehiro cerax 1000. But the masahiro 1000 and 3000 are really really good as well.
King 1000 is the industry standard. Nearly every reviewer uses that stone as a basis of comparison.
Fuck yes. Tell him to make a TH-cam channel. This is shit I need to know. The way he talks is so knowledgeable. No bullshit. Just what is the best for cooking.
Before I saw this video, I didn't even know a Nagura stone even existed. That's pretty cool.
Great video
Just ordered the Pride Abrasive stone set. I have alle the Japanese brands, time to see how good they are.
How good are they? They look intriguing to me but I've never tried them.
I just met him on a Norweigan cruise last week!
... Norwegian* ...
they were both really good on camera
hey charles and chef hiro!
I have a Victorinox butcher set what stone is good for me don’t care for a good polish just a sharp edge
Can you make a video on how to make onigiri tuna mayo?
Do a coconut crab roll !!!
I’m surprised he didn’t try to cook and eat it
with a rust eraser u can clean ur stones pretty well for no money.... no need for a dressing stone i think ;)
Dressing stone is a dollar cheaper. But this is for raising slurry. Rust eraser can remove particle build up from prior sharpenings, but then you have to rinse. Otherwise the eraser debris is left on the stone.
@@TheKnifeMerchant yes, very true u have to rinse after! im in germany the naniwa dressing stone is as i remember around 15€ here... and a rust eraser i already owned ;)
using the naniwa professional 800 + 3000 btw
greetings ;)
ayy just entered the giveaway
Hiros intros always start off like porn interviews
No more Bill @ Knife Merchant? He was good!
30 people thought this guy knew too much.
really would like some good sushi making videos, even if repeats.
kitayama 8k is considerably better than the Norton 8k
Thinking about spending 1000~ on sharpening stones and accessories for my 30~ knife lol
You can spend that much if you don't shop around. If you want a sharp knife you need some kind of sharpening supplies. Or you have to pay someone else constantly to sharpen your knives for you. Or you can just eat out a lot I suppose. Again you're paying someone else to have sharp knives.
I use a normal brick
Does anyone else not know whats going?
i like this. skill added to my cooking game. am a young youtuber growing ....
Ruth. Awesome channel you have there. Subscribed!
@@markedwards636 thank you so much. you have my support too
Are the knives shown at the end of the video going to be in the minonokuni line ?
Yes, these are Hommura series. Four sizes available right now. Sold out of 210mm gyuto, but they have been working and should be available in about 10 days
Anyone know the lifespan of a diamond sharpening stone? Is it best to buy for heavy use?
after 20 knifes or so, sharpeningwise, you wear away the film on top of the diamonds and it feels like it is "done", the feeling of the abrasive seems off, but don't worry, you are now just gliding over the diamonds and they are still sharpening fine.
Remeber that diamonds don't need alot that pressure you'd put on a normal stone.
Other than that, just buy the DMT ones and you'll be good for some time :)
@@KingJL25 Is it worth the investment over stone? for the amount of sharpening you get not necessarily the quality.
@@sjengkwee3395 Personally, I prefer stones over diamond plates.Stones imo give a way better sharpening feeling, the feedback can vary (in a good way) and you can try so many different things up until you arrive at the best stone for you. Feels more organic and fun to me. Also, an amazing mirror polish without stropping can only be done with stones. Even the 6k dmt diamondplate leaves back some undesired scratches.
For Diamond plates, there are not so many to choose from. DMT or Atoma, although I would go for the DMT ones if you are gonna do some heavy use.
To get to the bottom, if you are really a person to use them countless times for your very hard tools then go for diamondplates.(also it saves you time and cleanup) If not, and you are new to sharpening, go for an affordable stone.
@@sjengkwee3395 short answer:
Yes it is, as far as I can tell from recommendations of an actual blacksmith, making knives all the time. Less time investment, easier to care for and "working sharpness" in almost no time.
Does certain grades of metal need different stones
Yes. Really hard steel can chew up some stones. I think everything shown here can handle pretty much everything though.
Who is the stone merchant please?!?!
Does stones from like Dollar Tree work?
Deezo Mac surprisingly yes. They’re not terrible for something like an axe or hatchet. Maybe kitchen knife.
I had an expensive stone and my ex housemate stole it, now I have two $2 chinese stones that do the job perfectly.
Do* stones work?
I KNOW I've seen this same vid a few months ago.
Do a video with “Alec Steel”!!
No mention of King stones,,,,,,any reason why ?
Any reason for those silly multiple commas?
@@einundsiebenziger5488 If you have to ask that sort of question, you obviously would not understand the explanation !!!
if daughters only knew how much they make make dads proud or ------- !
You guys don't reply to emails. Why?
I used to have one of these stones, then one day I bought
an EverSharp Electric Knife Sharpener on amazone for like $25, and i haven't looked back since. So quick and sharper than using these stones.
electric sharpeners only scratch knives and ruin edges. Learn how to hold your hand steady you worthless Parkinson's patient
You are lucky as most of those ruin knife blades guaranteed.
@@Garth2011 Nope. It comes with two sides. One to sharpen, one to smooth the blade. works perfectly. It didn't have over 3000 5-star reviews for nothing.
Jarod Kelly between 3000+ five star reviews versus you, i’ll go with 3000. Cant never lose.
Jarod Kelly attacking people without any proof that stones can sharpen a knife better than a machine. Thats what losers do. I have 2 identical knives. I tested one on the stone and another on the machine time and time again. The knife on the machine outperforms the stone 10 out of 10 times. 3000+ people confirmed it on amazon.
Skip right to 29:46 for an eye candy. You are welcome.
why is sweden so expensive.....i mean 60 bucks for the large flattening stone here it will cost more than100 bucks
Hmm... isn't it reupload video from... 2017?
Nope.....!
o shit i hope not i want that giveaway
dmt u say ?
joe rogan has entered the chat .

What I learned from this: Go take my knives to a pro and don't even screw around at home.
I am a total idiot when it comes to this. I just don't have the feel, and believe me I have tried. My dad was really good at it but I just could never get the angle down.
practice 4head
There's guide systems. I sharpen freehand but I've been at it for almost 50 years now. I was sharpening knives when I was a little kid. Before that I was sharpening sticks on the sidewalk. There's just something about sharpening that has always fascinated me. That keen edge.
Why do you sound like the guy in the "teens do porn" channel?
Just asking
I watched another video of this knife merchant guy… He puts the most emphasis on his H’s than anybody I know! Maybe he enjoys “White cake”.
