I received this exact set as a gift a couple of birthdays ago and my sharpening skills have gone from nonexistent to half decent! Your videos have helped tremendously as well! Diamond stones are next. Thanks for taking the time to share your skills.
Do these stones still work for you? I've bought some where after 1 or 2 sharpenings, the coarse stone is smoother than the fine stone so I'm curious how well these last
I bought a similar slide-on angle guide. I used it once and threw it away. It was very tight to fit on the blade, and any little bit of slurry from the sharpening that gets under it scratches the hell out of the sides of the blade when you try to take it off.
Couple hundred years ago you might have been burned at the stake for witchcraft for having unnatural sharpening skills. Very good sharpening skills Mr. J.
Very cool sharpening overall. Great set for simple steels I have ones that are similar and after using diamonds it's hard to go back to water stones even for the simple steels, but for the price it's hard to go wrong with a set like this. Great way to learn as well as they don't cut as fast as diamonds. Thanks for the great vid and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable.
That’s a great value on those stones! I really like the Vosteed kitchen knives too, I actually gifted them to a few family members this past Christmas.
I hike and camp a lot. Let me tell you. I sharped my Bushcraft Moro with this set up. And Sir you have to be very careful when using the knife, it will cut you effortlessly. . And hold its edge. sharped wife's kitchen knives and she loves it but said they are to sharp. Using these stones and your method is great Thanks. For $25.00 and change can't beat it.
The Stroppy Stuff is pretty nice for the ones I tried. I really like the DBK x Stroppy Stuff Mirror polish 4 micron, for polishing blades. It's some good stuff but believe it can only be bought on the DBK store.
@@NeevesKnives Yeah I know they got the regular 4 micron Stroppy stuff. But on the Stroppy Stuff site the 4 micron mirror polish links to the DBK shop since it's a collab between them. But If you ask him I'm sure he can send it to you since he makes it. It's so great if you want a mirror polish on a blade or a large bevel like a scandi grind. It got a lot more carats of diamonds in it, so it's better for polishing rather than regular stropping. There is a video of it on the DBK shop, under the product. Can't remember if that one uses Poly crystalline or Mono Crystalline like his regular Stroppy stuff compound.
Still going back and forth between getting my first DMT plates, or a setup like this. Primarily for learning on old kitchen knives, and D2 folders. Suggestions?
Prolly to late but I’d get the dmts I got one of these kits first and it was so hard to learn on. If your angle ain’t perfect you will cut into the stone but diamonds also don’t give as good of feedback. I ended up getting a Arkansas stone and a old sic oil stone and that was the best help I ever got for learning as well as a small Diamond pocket stone and I realized why diamonds are so much better. I’ll pull my old water stones out sometimes and use them aswell and for $30 they work good if you already know how to sharpen.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video! I’ll pick up a set. Question. Do you put any pressure on the knife when you sharpen “ watched your tutorial video, but did not mention” ? Thanks again.
Now most of my ceramic stones now are over with my mom so I can sharpen her knives when I'm there. I really like the Shapton Pro #120 for removing chips and changing angles, Then a large King stone 1000/6000 grit cobo, and the Green Brick of joy ( Naniwa Aotoishi #2.000). Those 3 stones are usually all I recommend now for "basic steel" along with a high quality strop and a Nagura that can dress all of them. Those are my 3 recommended stones mostly because of the value and the amount of stone one gets for the money. I also really like the Shapton Pro 320 (Blue-Black), it's just such a beautiful stone to work on, but it's not a must. I would say either go with a Shapton Pro 120 or 320 (unless one really wants both).
good morning!! I bought this kit of stones, 400/1000 and 3000/8000, after watching your video, amazing!! so, as soon as I bought it, I used the 4 stones, because my knives were very bad … now, I just want to do a "maintenance", to keep them with a fine cut (now, they are still good/reasonable, but not as good as on the first days after I sharpened) … in this scenario, which one of the stones do you suggest to use?
so you can use your last 2 finishing stones for maintenance with a strop, your only wanting to do a few passes per side on the 2 stones, if its not able to take care of it then you will need to just restart on your coarse stone. every so often just give a few passes like 5 to 10 easy passes on each side with the highest grit stone in the bundle that will help your edge stay true a strop will also help you can do that ever couple times you use it depending on how hard you used it you dont want to over strop
Hey Jared! A while back you were talking about how the access to the lock bar was non existent on the GiantMouse ACE Atelier. Do you have any plans to do a video modifying the lock bar access on the titanium version of the Atelier? I’d love to see a video of that knife with your mod work on it.
I would recommend this, however yes it can work, I personally would go with diamond plates, they do wear out and you have to replace them unless you go with resin bonded diamond which is expensive. However these kind of stones take a lot of maintenance flattening etc. Diamond plates you just use no worries with cleaning, flattening, soaking etc.. and you can always add finer stones that are harder and take less maintenance on top of the diamonds like something from King Stones coupled with some diamond plates, check out my neevesknives store in description it should have some diamond plates I recommend the ultra sharp, or Atoma is even better just depends in your budget, the kings are in there as well
thanks for the info. New to the world of sharpening stones. I like the water stones for knives and small chisels but takes too much time for steel like narex makes and I still use a veritas honing guide as for some reason I always am off on my micro bevel and polish without it. i know , rookie.@@NeevesKnives
@@rjh6380 you will get it, every small issue is just an opportunity to learn, and i cant tell you how rewarding knowing freehand is, i think its more than just a skill some use it for therapy. but diamonds are what im rec because they cut so much faster and they are perfectly flat already and you will not dish them, if you take all the time you will take soaking, flatteninig, etc... its a no brainer imho
I can be a bit goofy commenting under Jared's videos and like to discuss the most badassest knife of all-time, in the history of the universe... which is obviously the Dragon Bowie. But I feel this is another good time to be sincere and make the point that there is not one other youtuber that explains the details of the knife sharpening proocess, including stropping, as well as Jerad does.Even in a video where you said you werent going to focus on the actual techniques of sharpening, you freaking nailed so many tiny little detaisl that 99% of other sharpening videos seemingly skips, feels is not important or just svcks at describing. I feel like I should direct anyone thats new to the craft to his channels. But then again I'd rather them suffer through 50-100 shytty knife shaprening videos like I had to before I introduce them to Mr. Kneeves. Obviously Id send them right to Kneeves Knives because more subcribers and likes is best for Jerad's channel. Sorry to be redundant, but I just appreciate someone cutting through the bullshit and simply telling you what you need to know. So thinks again Jerad for all the fun and informations you share with all of us. Bang!
yeah it probably means dont leave it in long, as most stones you dont want to just leave in water, i go off the bubble method with all water or whet stones, unless its splash and go, dunk until bubbles stop, harder stones might not even bubble much in that case just dunk for a min then go
The video I've been waiting for Jerad! Had this saved on Amazon awaiting to use your link to see if it was jerad approved but too lazy to ever check. And now you did this video. Thank you! Now I just need to know if my saved paddle strop is good enough.😊 Made by Lavoda?
Man..your a Master Brah. Question: The “Stuff” on the Strop….Will is stay useful while on the strop..days later? Must it be re Applied? If there is visually still “Stuff” on it. Great Vid.
I use the gunny juice , it’s basically the same diamond emulsion , Yes it stays on it , I apply a little for each sharpening but you don’t have to, you can strop a few sessions with a single application
I got A set just like this from Amazon about a year ago, it's a different brand but they're probably all made in the same factory😂 I only tried it once so far and when I was done using it I didn't give the stones long enough to dry out. Think I let them dry for a few hours in the Sun 🌞 and wrapped each Stone in a paper towel then put them away in a plastic 50 cal ammo type toolbox. 2 or 3 weeks later I opened it up and there was mold on all the stones 😅 so I soaked them in bleach and scrubbed them off. I let em dry for a few days before storing this time. Most of the mold came off except for the Whitestone still had black dots.😂✌️
I have something similar to that and it works great for all my budget knives. But if you wanna get anywhere fast you gotta use diamond plates. Higher end steals and aluminum oxide sharpening stones do not work well together. Nice demonstration. Well said.
My original ones were phoenix I gave those away and I'm using the dragons now ad far as my freehand large stones, I also have several different smaller ones

High quality ceramic stones and diamond plates are cheap enough I don't understand the benefit of waterstones anymore. The slightly lower cost might attract a beginner, but the hassle is much higher I'd still recommend a beginner just go ceramic at least.
Posting from Japan I would be happy if you could use Japanese natural whetstones. Shaving with Opinel Shaving with Mora Knife There is also a video like this it can be dangerous to see
I bought one of those SHIT Amazoom "$35 knife ruining kits"! They aren't worth 35 CENTS!!! I bought some GOOD Japan stones (3) for just over $220. Good sharpening stones aren't cheap; Cheap "dulling stones" aren't GOOD! Good (Japanese made) diamond steels are even more expensive. There is one brand of US made diamond steels that use Chinese synthetic diamonds that are good. That's DMT, but they only go to "2500 grit" and I like to "finish" with a 3 micron stone (or mylar film,) about 3 times smoother.
would have been nice to see the included leather strop get tested out as well. Overall still a good review though. I'm buying a similar set that looks identical in pictures but different brand slapped on it. Half the price so I hope it's like this one.
I think the fact that he didn't use the strop tells you all you need to know. I just ordered the set he tested, and I also ordered the style of strop that he used.
The 3k and even 8k sound pretty coarse. Maybe it's different in person but comparing the sound to 2k,5k and 8k shapton pro which sound really quiet (especially the 8k) these sound more like the 1k shapton or even a 400 chosera. Maybe it's the binder or maybe the screening process for these isn't as fine as for higher end stones so bigger abrasive ends up making it in (say a 20/14 micron stone can have up to 28 micron size media in better stones but on cheaper ones it might have 40 or even 50 micron depending on the quality of the sorting mesh). Still for the price on one good stone you get a whole set and it's an easy way for beginners to try out hand sharpening without spending a bunch of money.
You are not misinterpreting what you see/hear here. The grit on all four of these stones is essentially the same regardless of what is stamped on them. You can get individual stones for less then $10, and that's not a bad deal for what you are getting. You are still only getting one effective grit, though. Paying any more than $10 for a single stone is a waste of money. You can tell how much a person knows about sharpening stones by how they review these stone kits.

can you use pocket knifes for it?

Did they send you this foe review?
Looks like it's wears down fast already
only annoying thing about these stones is the sound...
First minute gang
This is one of the Knife Sharpener scammers. Legitimate sharpening companies say the ONLY thing you really need is a 1000 grit stone. Look on TH-cam for anyone who sharpens knives using a felt pen to mark the edge. You don't need this junk.
The whole kit cost under $30?
No way it's a quality sharpening kit. It must be made of shit and sticks
I personally cannot recommend these stones as I've done a little digging and all the stones and the from what I've gathered all the ones that Amazon sells that look like these come from the same manufacturer in China. I'd recommend king stones over these. Although I do understand why people buy them
I never compared them to any other stones, I have a thousand stones I'd recommend more, but for the 30+ $$ it's not a bad buy its actually really good considering. But yeah I have King stones in my store that I recommend
fake
? What's fake 😆
@@NeevesKnivesHe means you didn’t sharpen the knife like that , it was fresh out the box for the paper towel test 😆
@Antimatter. 😆 🤣 if you rub your edge on any stone it's gonna go dull before you make it sharp again
Instead of a knife give away you should offer a 1 on 1 sharpening lesson in person! Now I’d throw my hat in the ring for that!
