  • Hey folks!
    In todays video we'll be going over everything you need to know to sharpen a knife (double beveled that is! single bevels will have to be their own video all together, and its in the works!) From progression, to deburring and everything in between we'll cover it in this video! If there was anything we didn't cover or you have to add leave a comment down below, we always love to hear from you guys!

    This is actually the best video I've seen on knife sharpening! No fluff just the straight goods and I appreciate that.

    I just got my first proper japanese knife. Can you PLEASE do a video on patinas? Like i‘ve seen people do forced coffee patinas? Maybe you‘ve mentioned it somewhere but i can‘t find it. How do i actively patina my knife? What does it do for protection, how does it affect the surface? I‘m gonna spend some time googling about it anyway, but i would love to hear what you have to say about it. Keep up the great work, thanks!

    This has been the best video on Knife Sharpening I have seen!
    Full of information but not longer than it needs to be.
    The video quality is good and the audio quality is surprisingly good (no more echo!)|
    And the top down view showing how the movements are done and where the fingers should be is the cherry on top!
    Thank you Gage!

    While we are at it; I tend to have rough calluses on my fingers and hands. I can't feel the bur when using a 1000 or more. Though I've never really had issues getting my knives sharp I have to "trust" that it's there. Any tips for "knowing" that I have a good bur?

    • @CBirky-mm3fn
      @CBirky-mm3fn 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have you tied using the backs of your fingers where no calluses have formed? Obviously this would have to be done carefully, but should allow you to feel the burr

    • @Derekyounan
      @Derekyounan 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can drag a q tip across the edge and see if the fibers get pulled by the burr

    • @nicksavchenko7516
      @nicksavchenko7516 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I found that the best way is to shine a flashlight over the knife, you will see the burr clearly, I usually use this to make sure that I don't have any burr left after sharpening

    Yo boss,
    whats your opinion about ZDP 189 Knifes? I currently own a Yoshimi Kato Bunka which I absolutely love but I want to keep my collection growing. Im planning to get a Gyuto and a Petty and I came across Yoshida Hamono's ZDP 189 Petty and Gyuto.. What are your thoughts about those knifes and would u recommend them to me instead of just going for a Yoshimi Kato only collection?

    I gotta say, I’m really surprised that a video titled the definitive knife sharpening guide that features both western and Japanese style blades has no mention of the difference between a single and double bevel edge. This should really be called the definitive sharpening guide for double bevel edges. Having said that, this video did contain some great information.

    Another easy way is to multiply the width of the blade by the sin of the angle you want and thats how high you should hold it

      @@lz_377 I dig that Bunka you mentioned. I want a really thin edge. The steel on the Moritaka works for me. Only 170 bucks. I do have a half way decent Nakiri but want a bunka for the point at the end so you have more options than a Nakiri. Where you buy yours. You buy yours from Chef Knives to go?

Also, that’s the same reason I got the Bunka to replace my Nakiri because the tip for draw cuts. The Moritaka is 100% flat just like my Nakiri. I bought some 600 grit sand paper and smoothed out the choil. It’s been phenomenal so far.

      @SharpKnifeShop  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You certainly can, but in my experience a lot of stainless steels lose that bite anywhere past 1-3k depending on the steel and heat treat, so don't overdo it on the 6k for more than a quick strop and deburr!
