I love this guy. He reminds me of the good ol'days of youtube when people had channels because they just wanted to make content.. now every ones got a hand in your pocket trying to sell ya this or subscribe to that. More people need to be like him.
"I like poking the Internet with a stick to see what kinda porn comes out"
My god, put that on a shirt
I would buy 7 of them and wear them every day...even need it put on hoodies
It's difficult to believe that there is someone out here who is willing to part with hard earned cash so that they can take something apart, make fun of it and show the rest of us what a piece of shit it is. Thanks AvE!
Pretty sure the view click revenue covers the cost of the tools.
not with todays ad amounts

5 out of 4 stars. Verified Viewer ✅
You can't trust these freaking comments. Are you telling me somebody bought one of these, and then sat down on the confuzer and made a 20-minute stand-up routine for TH-cam? I mean come on man! It makes me subscribe.
As he saw in the microwave it aint worth a 5 out of 4 stars rating.
So the best thing to do is learn how to sharpen a knife the proper way ! Then let the misses give you the stars😁😁
Keep making the videos I enjoy learning from you. Hello from southern Ohio.
I skim the 4-5 star reviews then go straight to the 1-2 star and finish with a few 3 star. 1-2 star taken together can indicate design flaws or general quality issues. Though only after filtering for the people that ordered the wrong product or color and their world collapsed. "This pepper grinder is fantastic but took an extra day to arrive and was dented when I used it as a jack stand for my truck, one star!"
3-4 stars seem to be the most confused, often the essay portion seems to describe 1-2 star quality. "I would have given 5 stars but it burst into flames after only 4 uses so I knocked a star off. Would have rated only 3 stars but they sent be a replacement for the cost of shipping."
wolfedog99 LMAO. So true.
wolfedog99 omg I laughed so hard at this. Funny cause it's true. I do the same thing.

@@AlexanderHL1919 leave it be maybe it was punintentional
The skew in the rotor performs a similar function to helical cut gears. Smooths out the torque since the magnetic fields engage somewhat gradually.
That’s right. The skew makes the cogging torque smoother. (Reducing the rotating steps that you feel)
Lots of false positive reviews are out there, but I've also learned that the worst reviews are sometimes written by disgruntled, confused, clueless idiots who have no clue about the product and bomb it because of operator error. It can go both ways.....
John Baugh
Yup.
I was just now looking at cheap heating pads to get a jump start on garden seed growing.
People knocking off stars because of the size.
The size is clearly marked on the box as well as stated online.
I have found reviews on tents or generally camping gear to be rather humorous in this regard. A disgruntled customer can really paint a picture of a good situation turned poor through their own misguided experience in outdoor equipment going bad through incorrect use and or setup.
It's a tool, and a tool is only as good as the tool who uses it.
I also learned the glowing reviews are from either the manufacturer or their employees
Probably also some competition would stoop that low.
I'm pretty sure I've seen that on takeaway reviews and things like massage salons
The risk with being too sharp with the puns is that you may become all edge and no point...

The "angulation" just smooths the rotation just like what you would do with helical gears. It's known as "skew" to us motor heads.

I spent many a moon as a chef so I'm a terrible knife and sharpening snob, but this waste of the earth's resources of a machine will do an adequate job on adequate knives like the one he didn't sharpen correctly. It's a fun channel but don't go taking his word as gospel.

As a person who sharpens tools for a living, I can say it's always a grind but it's never dull. We use a Tru Hone machine with ceramic wheels for our kitchen knives. Much better than that craptacular device.
Tru Hone machine- from $1000 to $1500. "That craptacular device"- $30. How can you even compare the two? Apples and oranges. It does the job for an average kitchen user. The knives are sharp enough to slice through veggies. -)
vzNostalgia, Granted but as I said I sharpen for a living, so I'm using a professional machine that's designed for commercial use and not "home use only". I understand your average person won't buy such an expensive machine for home use but finding a local sharpener helps your local economy. ;-)
Absolutely. I am all for the local economy, David. -) I am just surprised that people expect a Ferrari performance out of a Toyota Corolla. -)

I only look at negative reviews. If they are more than just "This thing sucks" and actually have valid complaints, then I take them seriously. Positive reviews are ignored with great relish!!

I do the same. But the ratio matters too.

Yeah, but it drives me nuts reading what should be product review only to find out it’s a shipping or customer sat review.

i've used the world "chooch" and "Skookum" in polite conversation in the past week; nobody batted an eye. I wonder if they know what the mean or were just scared to bring it up.
well there is urban dictonary that cites AvE
www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Chooch
Man whoever wrote that explanation out needs an award
Anybody on the wet coast of Canada would know what you're saying
I randomly go full on Canukistan with a heavy AvE accent about once a week. People just know ive lost my mind a long time ago and dont question it.
They're self-explanatory. Even to an Irishman.
For those viewers mystified by the word 'skookum', it's a native word meaning sturdy or rugged. Most people in western Canada, especially British Columbia, know exactly what it means even if it's mostly older Canadians who still use it. My wife and I use it and do sometimes get funny looks from twenty year olds.
Ha ha, to my surprise it even has a Wikipedia page. Who knew?
Gre up right on the border of NW Ontario and heard it a fair bit myself. "Chooch", though - that I learnt from AvE.
I've used the word for years, all the Yukoners know it. Here in Saskatchewan the only ones that know it are the folks from Yukon.
I've heard some people in the USA use it but it was mostly people from people who lived in the western states that are right below Canada could there be a correlation there?
I'm always amazed at how well you describe mechanical and electrical concepts... to boil concepts down to that level requires lots of knowledge and comprehension... and it is appreciated

Fk, wrote this out once but utube didn't want to play ball. Ave I say do the affiliate links, I recently bought a new Ryobi hot glue gun because my old one had shat itself. I knew when you recommended it that it was a fair dinkum recommendation. You even started off the review wanting to dislike it. So i'.m going to buy one based on that, whether it be off Amazon, ebay, or the local hardware. So either way I'm paying full price and i'd rather 7% went to you, even as an extra thanks for the escape, entertainment, laughs, and knowledge you share. We know the kind of bloke you are and affiliate links won't change that. So add them, maybe put the money aside for the new young bloke, so he can one day buy what ever tools he wants. id rather it went to you any day of the week than some CEO somewhere. cheers mate
The thing is corporate don't want to sponsor someone who goes full negative of the products.
I absolutely agree, all of us here would have been victims to shill reviews
and prey to the marketing wank a LOT more if it wasnt for THIS channel,
so please AvE....
Take the 7% with a clear heart and maybe use it for future projects???
@ Fire Potato, Yeah, totally agree..But..that's not what he does at all. Some reviews he goes in even expecting to be negative..but if it turns out it's a half decent product then he will say so. Hence me getting the Ryobi hot glue gun...Forgot to note who's comment this was in regards to

Good work on the 'missing instructions' excuse. That's brilliant because the instructions say, "Make sure you get a distinct BURR on the blade edge before moving from step 1 to step 2". So if you'd found the instructions your key complain would have been ruined. Gotta keep the information accurate! PS: The 3-step version from Cambodian Tired is $65 and has rotating discs vs. reciprocating pads. If you're a lazy non-chef, who can't be bothered to get a good knife and sharpen it properly, this is a handy product.
As far as the reviews things go: I am a "product tester" for a web group and get paid and get free stuff in exchange for 5 star reviews on amazon. Don't trust them.

When I was a chef we had machines like this for knife sharpening. Mostly for the newbies and prep cooks and whatnot, who can't use a steel properly without having to look for their fingers on the ground afterwards. I hated it. It was a cheap version though, maybe cost about $15. Made the knives about as sharp as the edge of a brick.
Ours had itty bitty grinding wheels inside instead of those reciprocating diamond coated pads.
love your describtion for how it works and your style of videos overall. Keep it going, you are doing great :)
Drill Doctor for knives. I'll keep my stones, thanks
yep once you know how to sharp knives with stones it becomes a pleasure itself
yep, no substitution for a good water stone, and really if ya know your way around a water stone it doesn't take long at all.
I'll definitely keep my waterstones, once you know how to sharpen things with one you don't want anything other. Takes some skill but definitely worth it!
If the wife catches him, he'll have no stones!
same.. but i won’t use my stones for my really expensive chef knives because i don’t trust myself to not f it up
The angle on the rotor conductors helps prevent cogging while the motor is turning. @16:23
Evan Shebel cogging is a good way to put it.
I was thinking "treat a shaded pole motor like a 4 stroke, the angled conductors act like the harmonic balancer", but I like "cogging" :D
been watching your vigales for few years now. they never cease to entertain ! your by far the best doodilytuber i know of ! never stop captin.
I understand everything you're saying yet simultaneous don't know what the hell any of it means.
Awesome description of the waveform conversion to motion. I’ve always had a very basic understanding of how electric motors work, but it’s always cool to have a little better understanding of how she works. Startup is what I always had a hard time figuring out on my own, it always seemed to me that an electric motor would be just as likely to start in reverse as forward.
I believe the angle in the rotor bars is to prevent the entirety of the rotor bar from passing the electrical neutral plane at once. As the conductor passes through the ENP it is parallel with the magnetic lines of flux and therefore the flux isn't cutting the conductor, meaning it doesn't induce a voltage.
What he said. Verticals don't work. Angled does.
Love these dismantling videos and the creative puns etc. I can watch this guy all day.
Hello from Solingen/Germany - the town your knife was made in 😄
Also no ones gonna mention how nicely that sine wave was drawn
There's probably a thermal fuse under the tape on the motor windings.
mikeselectricstuff yes second that... Just repaired a Marantz amp with a thermal fuse hidden away in the primary winding
That's what the shaded pole I pulled out of a waterpik had, a thermal fuse under the tape.
shaded pole don't really pull much more stalled. small ones can sit stalled forever without melting too badly.
Same motor as a bathroom stank evacuator. No fuse either. Maybe they rely on the breaker fuse or the smoke detector.
Anything is a fuse if you give it enough umph!
I used to work for McGill, we made those sort of bearings (among other types). specifically, I ran a centerless plunge grinder making those rollers. I also occasionally ran a through feed centerless for straight rollers, and sometimes a single station to grind the races on cam follower inner studs. It was a very interesting job... lots of gray-beard voodoo involved for a machine as technically simple as they are. That's a high dollar bearing you have there.
The "stropping" feature is the two end pieces (one showing top-most in the frame at 8:56) that look and feel like (and may actually be) a refrigerator magnet. There are apparently microscopic abrasives in the vinyl (or whatever it is) that have a polishing effect on the blade after you have ground it with the finest other abrasives.(and may actually be)
The unit you have has oscillating hones and only 2 stage. The other unit you had on the paperwork is a 3 stage. It uses rotating discs to sharpen. This 3 stage unit is impressive. I have had mine for 6 or more years. When you sharpen with the first 2 stages they grind the knife edge to 2 different angles and set the angle of the edge. The last stage is a stropping wheel and finely polishes the edge. I can tell you this. When your are done sharpening a knife with the 3 stager you CAN literally shave with it. After my initial round of sharpening all my knives the first time after purchasing it, my arms were hairless. It does take some time to master the process but it does work well.
I've had the 3 stage for over 20 years, works like a charm. AvE needs to not be a cheap fuk and get the real one, not this cheapo version. It doesn't f up your blades, like the model Ave got, if you want I can post pictures of 25 year old knives still going strong, no scratch marks from the sharpener like he did. But don't drop when you take it apart, I can't say what it will do if you do.
Came for the shitty plastic knife sharpener, stayed for the proper bearing.
I trust your opinion on tools and manufactured goods, watching your videos has taught me how to look at the inside codes and the like that most people overlook.
I am increasingly jealous of your Bill Burr like talky talk... And most of all your incredible understanding of these types electronics / motors... Epic
That's one hell of a muffler bearing on the bench today!
And what looks to be some good elbow grease on the pan.
I gotta feeling that beer is what we should thank for a lot of good vijeos. Cheers mate!
I have the model that includes the grinding wheels. I find that using those is important to get the bevel set on the knife so it matches the honing stones. I agree that it is tricky to use. Especially to sharpen the tips, but it works.
@16:04, most genuine "Don't tell my wife!" I've heard on this channel in two years of watching! :-D
What happened to the camera named Focus you f***? I kind of miss that camera. Love the videos!
April Kester.... right.! you are.
April Kester he's got one for sale
Focus you fack. I miss it to.
I bought one of those sharpeners at a yard sale years ago. It just scratched my blades up but didn't really get them sharp. Hand stones and strops. They just work.
By the time you buy something like this you may as well get a cheapo harbor freight mini belt sander and some belts for knife sharpening that include a leather strop belt. Then make some wood blocks that you can rest the knife on and set your angle. End up spending about the same amount and end up with fresh razor blades instead of the used ones your wife shaved her legs with and left rusting on the side of the tub for a couple weeks.
Thanks for showing us a nice explanation for shaded pole love it
Wow, now that's an edgy video.

Across for attention, Down for results.
I got a very similar machine from my father in laws house (cleaning it out after they passed away). It was probably built in the 70's or 80's, and had an extra stage under a plastic cover on the left side, in addition to the sharpening and honing stages.
I use it mainly for two knives, the ones we use most often, and probably 2-3 times a year for 5-10 minutes a stretch.
It was free, so I didn't overpay, it does work for sharpening our knives, so no real complaints there, and since it runs 5-10 minutes at a stretch and has probably done so since the 80's (maybe 70's) I'd say it works pretty good.
On the other hand, I have a vitamin blender after I finally broke down and paid way more than any human should, but it replaced the multiple Ninja and Nutribullets that I wore out. It is used daily and, as you video attested, is skookum as hell.
Proper knife sharpening is an art, an art that was once mastered by most men. Nowadays most men would not have a clue and look for gadgets to do this job as a solution - I don't mean you AvE, I am sure you know how to sharpen just about anything by hand. The way I sharpen my kitchen knives is on my drillpress using small 5" medium grit wheel on half speed. Having the wheel horizontal gives you more control, I use the sides of the wheel. Now I know the sides of a grinding wheel is not supposed to be used as it reduces the thickness of it and can weaken it to the point where it disintegrates, however I have been using the same wheel for 30 years as I hardly touch the wheel whilst sharpening so wear has been minimal. I can sharpen about about a dozen knives in about 5 minutes and I am removing no more material on the knives than I would on sharpening stones by hand which would take me half an hour. The operation gives the knives a slightly serrated finish which aids in cutting through food stuffs. There is a saying that a dull knife is more likely to cut you than a sharp knife, that is true but only up to a point. I would never put razor sharp knives in my kitchen or give them to most people, I only finish my personal knives like that and sometimes I might even give myself a small accidental cut if I am not paying attention, all it takes is a small tap. Most of my cutting tools are that sharp, knives, axes, machetes. Then then there are some cutting tools that I keep only moderately sharp. Last year a friend of mine asked me to sharpen his hunting knife, I could see the attempts at this by him and his friends, all they did was make it blunter and scratch it. It was only some piece of chinese junk but having nothing better to do I gave it the royal treatment including a mirror finish to the blade. When I returned it to him and he realized how sharp it was his eyes turned into that of an owl and he started handling it like some hot potato. He asked me how long it had taken me to sharpen it expecting the answer to be I suppose an hour. I told him 10 minutes which was true - grind, stone and polish to the blade and then the edge by hand. Is sharpening by hand hard? No its easy but it does take an interest and investment in time to become proficient at it.
Another knife edge fucky upper device.
I wrote an article for a German magazine for chefs a few years ago.
I compared sharpening your knife with a stone, special knife sharpening tools, slow water grinders and those "easy sharpening" devices.
The later always fuck up the blade of the knife. You can see it on a microscope. Also they enforce an angle to the knife that might simply be wrong. I got blades sharpened only on one site, i got some for meat with a compound grind, i got hollow grind, thin grinds.......
So even if they don't murder the blade by chipping it, they mess up the angle of the grind.
Honestly, I'll buy cheap knifes and sharpeners. Those barely functioning people I've worked with couldn't figure out a butchers steel, or stone, and can't reliably do anything beyond 3 steps in setting a plate.
Fine dining is one thing, average neighborhood sit-down $10 entree is a whole different batch.
"Why are you letting the knifes bang around in the dishwasher"?
".....I dunno"
i was not expecting this level of punishment
6:02 I immediately became a Patron. To be completely honest I've never used Patreon or really cared all that much, but much respect for being honest and saying what we all know to be the case: ads are garbage.
I work in marketing, and quite a bit of what I do is in "shill marketing" on sites like TH-cam and Instagram and frankly it's garbage too. No better than ads. I hate it, the company I work for hates it, but it makes sales, and we're not in the business of fixing that, we're in the business of selling our product. Don't hate the player, hate the game.... and all that.
We try to give our product out to lots of "influencers" and tell them to do honest reviews because we know our product is solid and we don't need to pussyfoot about things, but to be frank, even if you give someone something free, that's no guarantee that any video or review will ever actually come out. Most of the time, these affiliate links or kickbacks are less about making a positive review than about making a review at all. If you know you're gonna get money from it after the fact.... well you're a lot more likely to get around to publishing the damn review. Doesn't hurt that in the case of affiliate sales, from a company's perspective, you're only shelling out the bucks when you're also raking in the bucks. A huge strain put on us marketing guys is proving our "return on investment" and you'd be hard pressed to find a better proof of ROI than that.
Anyway, all that is to say that many of us in marketing see our job as: we have a good product. A better product than the other guys. You would actually be better off buying our product than theirs. BUT.... many times, the more honestly we try to convey that message, the more it gets ignored. Most of the time we have to hit you over the head with our product for you to even notice it. And that's not your fault, we live in a world where everybody is shouting at you all the time. It's a broken system and we're just playing along.
You’re a good guy AvE, don’t ever change!
“Single phase” skewed rotor bars allows the bars to enter magnetic flux of one tooth of the stater before leaving the flux of the tooth next to it. Making a more constant torque and have less vibration. That’s what I read here in my Richard j. Fowler Electricity principles and applications 8th edition. Help-full for a shaded pole stater I think.
Yup that's correct. It's to maintain consistent torque, as opposed to having a series of step-changes as a different set of rotor conductors come into play.
It's actually to smooth out torque pulsations caused as the rotor field cuts across the stator field. If the rotor bars are parallel with the stator slots it cause vibration from the abrupt change in the magnetic field. Think of driving your car over a ditch head on at 90 deg vs taking it a an angle. All modern three phase and single phase motorss have skewed bars. It does increase the slip slightly but much lower 2X line frequency.
Similar to having helical rotors versus straight rotors in a roots pump
Think your sharp with all those puns, eh?
kcknitlegt or jist very Punny
Well spotted Danibolical. Very sharp.
And straight to the point
Geez, some people are so bitter. Get in a real Tang about it. Some people just need to get a Handle on the situation and cut out the tongue-in-Cheek. Let's just get to the Point here, put in the Grind and grow a Spine.
I've sharpened kitchen, work, camping, and fun knives for years on stones, picked up a Worksharp last year, Ken Onion version, and it's quite a good sharpener. It'll roll the edge on coarser grits, but you work your way down and have an edge that's shave-worthy. And most of it's built pretty well, couple plastic pieces seem a little light but have held up well, probably intended to be replaceable. Haven't had a look inside as I'm a fan of the way that it just works.
6 out of 5 starts. Great review! Would watch again.
The angles on the rotor shaft make the transitions of the slots smoother. This makes the invovled waveforms smoother as well. The result is less THD on the motor/generator output. It also helps with the torque and reduces cogging.
I don't remember what is the trade off. There must be something
AvE has a new level of sharpness with the puns
Old chef's trick, take a knife in each hand. swipe the edge of the one blade on the back on the other blade, switch sides and do that a couple of times. Takes 10 seconds and get's the job done. But hells, a machine to do mundane tasks is always more fun too. Thanks AvE for the edutainment!
At last something you and me can have same meaning on :) Yep It really is a nice tool indeed specially for a woman or a man who dont know how to sharpen a knife this comes very handy. Way to go mate. You outsmart your self once again. Love your channel…..:)
Chef here.
These things are bad, very gimicky, and mostly useless... It will infact destroy a nice edge, and mar the crap out of the finish.
I use a whetstone on my knives. With practice, you can get a blade that will cut many blonde ones effortlessly. By hand I should add.
Whetstones are the best option.
They take a bit of practise to use right, but the result is worth the time.
sklepa you can say that again!
Spyderco tri-stone set works like a charm and all you have to do is hold the blade vertical as you draw it. Scalpel sharp in minutes.
Lol, I spent 4 hours sharpening the tools of my trade yesterday, with 3 stones. And then it was stropping time, I use magazines with colour photos to get a polish which satisfies me. I have it second hand that the ink is a micro abrasive.
@@vetrnymlyn2 If you want to skip the practice you can always get a angle guide setup like a Lansky system. I learned on a hard Arkansas whetstone when I was 15 years old but today I appreciate the accuracy of the angle guide system more than the convenience of the pocket whetstone.
Title should've been: "A box from Cabelas changed my life!" Lol!

Wranglestar is such a sellout.
Vibrating plastic-encased one, I suspect.
I wonder if Wranglerstar has lost enough dignity to give this thing a good review yet.
There isn't any dignity for him to lose
I'm having my late evening tea and a piece of chocolate, and what did I choose to watch? Uncle AvE's video.
WHen you have those type motors apart and re-assemble them, it's always good to smack the shaft to align the bearings - since the start torque is so low! I put a flat blade on the shaft inside one bushing and smack w/hammer! then the shaft will spin much more freely !
I always report the ad as “inappropriate” to TH-cam.
Aids in the starting torque...helps with the power factor....I was always taught the "angulations" help smooth out the torque ripples across the speed band. Looking forward to more learnings for make benefit our common (wo)man. Seriously, great explanation of how a shaded-pole motor really works. Wish I had learned that in my electrical engineering degree's motors class.
To that point - I make sure every young apprentice EE I mentor sees your shit. You're fantastic. Can't say it enough. Cheers, and keep up the great f'ing work, man!
Finally found it, This is way too far down the page!
This is why I hand-sharpen things.
Love your videos by the way, I'll have to try to think of some industrial parts that you can mess around with, maybe I can get my hands on some stuff to send your way.
I watched a 2 minute ad, because your channel is worth it, and I'm a tool freak.
So if the electrocity is dicked, no flux are given?
BRILLIANT.

We have a different model (EdgeSelect 15), and the instructions are pretty specific about how to use it. You're supposed to use one pair of slots the first time for a particular knife to get it to the 15 degree edge, but I think that's what the model shown doesn't do at all. The remaining two pairs of slots are for re-sharpening. Each pair, you're supposed to use the same amount each side, to keep it symmetric, with one pair being for fine sharpening, the other for honing. If you don't follow the directions, of course you're going to have a gnarly edge. You could do the same with stones, using them wrong and then saying they're faulty. I still use a steel most of the time, just to keep the edges, but the electric sharpener did a great job, with me actually following directions. It was a lot faster than using stones, and the edges are more consistent than I could get them.
I really enjoyed the lesson on the small ac induction motor, neat to see how you are kind of turning single phase into a simulated 3 phase in order to get that motor to chooch. Maybe I’m misunderstanding but that’s kind of how I was seeing it.
I dunno, man. I've taken time out of my day to drunkenly do WAY more questionable things than write amazon reviews.
The angle on the rotor is to help in preventing edy currents from feeding back into the induction between rotor and stator
The hangulation on the magnetic conductors is for smooth rotation of the motor. Its like the piston movement in an engine. When the piston is at the bottom of the stroke, its rod rotates on the piston, gradually accelerating the piston to top stroke. The tip of the magnetic pad hits the magnetic field and eases the ingress in the magnetic relationship with the AC wave form.
Dude you are wicked smart and hilarious to watch, keep it up!
I got a good laugh when you tore down the guy who took 5 min to type out and express his opinion from a guy who spends his life making videos to express his opinion.
Love your vids by the way
I could see the crap edge on that knife with out the microscope. Not sharp more like a really fine saw that is how it still cuts paper.
when he "cuts" the paper you can even hear it ripping.

Out of all the TH-cam channels this is my number 1. You say it the way it is and dont give a crap. Just awsome!!!!!
I never leave home without my knife sharpener,,thanks boltr your the best
There is a fuse, it is the smoke.☁
Like all electronics, they work on smoke. As long as the smoke stays inside, all is fine and working.👍
But....wenn you let the smoke out, it doesn't work anymore.🌩😥
😁
Guust i like that lol let the smoke out of 2 grinders today
You gotta grind *both* sides to a rolled over edge, roll it over one way, then roll it over the other before you go to the fine stones and then you do the same thing again, burr on both sides.
This makes sure you have a full bevel on both sides of the knife.
I'm only saying this because it looked very clearly to me on the microscope that you had two angles on the bad side and didn't bring it to a full bevel.
The receptacle tip!!!!!! My dad started rolling!
Just discovered this channel. You remind me of my old shop teacher and his crazy sense of humor.
