Why Your TUMBLER Sharpened Knife Is Still Dull: Avoiding Common Mistakes

- In this video, we address a common issue that many knife owners encounter when trying to sharpen their knives.
We explain why going from a 20 degree sharpening angle to a 15 degree sharpening angle can be problematic and how it can result in a dull knife.
When attempting this process, many customers can become frustrated due to lack of patience, as significant portions of the blade need to be removed to achieve the desired angle.
Additionally, a significant burr is created when removing a lot of metal, which can make the knife appear dull. We provide tips on how to avoid this problem and explain the proper techniques to sharpen your knife effectively.
Don't let a lack of knowledge keep you from having a sharp knife. Watch this video and learn how to avoid common mistakes and achieve a razor-sharp edge on your knife.

Can the magnetic holder be used on extra large blades or curved blades
Thanks for reaching out! We recommend using Tumbler for kitchen knives and regular ground pocket knives only
Having declared my dissatisfaction with this sharpener last night th-cam.com/users/postUgkxDcr-y2Pf6xdnrFHrSP7dl9kpKaCozcSQ I thought about the problem some more. It occurred to me that I might be undoing each attempt at achieving a sharp edge by the repeated attempts. So, I tried to clean up the unsatisfactory result by honing with only positions 3 and 4.Miracle!! A really nicely sharpened chef's knife, more than enough to handle my needs. Admittedly, it did not reach professionally sharpened razor-fineness, but it is now significantly sharper than it was. A bout of breaking down carrots convinced me. So, major apologies to the manufacturer, Amazon, and all happy and potential owners! Follow the directions: don't buy it if you have ceramic blades; and don't overwork your knife blade.
Thanks for giving us a try and for sharing your review! The Tumbler roller grinder is not suitable for serrations. The serrated heads of the bread knives are ground off and the surface of the diamond sharpening disc wheel can be damaged.
Didn’t know misen was 20, that’s the knife I use, hoping to get this soon!
We’d love for you to give us a try! www.tumblerware.com/
Is that a good knife?
@@Therealphantomzero i personally love it, even better when you factor in price
Are you planing on selling these outside of the U.S. and Canada?
At this time, we are not! Thanks for reaching out.
Buy the original product wich is called Horl2 it is a gerrman company. Tumbler is an illegal copy
@@Tekdiver1981 The Horl is just straight up better, too.
How do you know what the optimal degree is for sharpening? I have all sorts of knives I want to sharpen from kitchen knives to hunting/tactical knives.
Almost all kitchen knives can be sharpened with the 20 degree angle, as it is a common angle in the industry You can use the 15 degree angle for harder blades, for example Damascus knives or blades with a core steel that has a higher hardness 15 degrees is steeper than 20 degrees, which gives you a higher sharpness, but at the same time can dull faster due to the very sharp edge
Bought this, used it once and it worked well. Now just got it out to resharpen and the drum barely rolls. It takes an extreme amount of force to roll it… any ideas how to correct this?
We are sorry to hear that this happened! Please reach out to hello@tumblerware.com to see what we can do to help!
should i get this if i exclusively want to sharpen pocket knives? i dont use kitchen knives and i want to know what angle to use on pocket knives
Most Pocket Knives can be sharpened with the Tumbler and the 20 degree angle However, there are special outdoor or tactical knives that have extreme blade geometries where it can be difficult But if it is a normal pocket knife, it is possible without any problems
Hey, I really would like to get one of these here in Brasil, but I can't see a way to buy it international, what can you guys do to send me one?

Can the tumbler sharpen a thicc buck knife or only for kitchen
Great illustration but how can I tell if my knife had a 20 degree angle or a 15 degree angle to begin with
Almost all kitchen knives can be sharpened with the 20 degree angle, as it is a common angle in the industry. You can use the 15 degree angle for harder blades, for example Damascus knives or blades with a core steel that has a higher hardness. 15 degrees is steeper than 20 degrees, which gives you a higher sharpness, but at the same time can dull faster due to the very sharp edge.
Can you use sharping tester properly?
Sharping isn’t a thing. Or a word.
@@Hammerback0congrats on being that guy
@@Hammerback0wut a meen e
Should a victorinox kitchen knife be sharpened at 20°?
Almost all kitchen knives can be sharpened with the 20 degree angle, as it is a common angle in the industry. You can use the 15 degree angle for harder blades, for example Damascus knives or blades with a core steel that has a higher hardness. 15 degrees is steeper than 20 degrees, which gives you a higher sharpness, but at the same time can dull faster due to the very sharp edge.
Where is this manufactured?
Why does the roller not roll properly? It's stiff when rolling and hard to roll? I doubt that's supposed to happen as it's on an axle. Any recommendations! 😊
We apologize for the inconvenience! Please reach out to hello@tumblerware.com for help.
Our's is doing the same thing! Went to go sharpen knives today and it no longer rolls!
How do you know what angle my knife is?

Is there a way to figure out if my knife is at 15 degree?
@@shawn4357sharpie the edge and do a few passes if it takes all the ink off it’s the same angle

Mine stopped spinning. Just sent out an email to the company. Let's see their customer service skill.
Thanks for reaching out to us! We look forward to helping you out with this. Keep an eye out on your email!
Durability of holding sharpness and durability of sharpen angle 15° vs 20°. I wonder if i could use this product on planer blade or wood chisels? It would be nices to see some kind of digital sharpness test.
Over all this looks really cool and simple. Takes the time consuming practice required using stone and a leather strop finish.
We appreciate your feedback! Tumbler works with most knives, including but not limited to kitchen knives, cleavers, most hunting knives with a smooth edge, folding knives with a smooth edge. Blades that are not suitable for sharpening with the Tumbler are those at bread knives and scissors. th-cam.com/video/7khINWXpo-k/w-d-xo.html

Can you use this tumbler with water?
No water necessary when using Tumbler.

I heard water sanding yields a good result when sanding

maybe because of legal reasons. They are a copycat of the Horl 2 developed by the German Company Horl 1993 GmbH --> They took part in the German version of Shark Tank.
The main reason is burrs
Sharp the not sharp side of a knife
The main mistake is this "sharpener"
Can you sharp axe
Thanks for reaching out! An axe usually has too wide a grind, so sharpening with the tumbler is not possible
Why don't u guys ship to Europe?

@@tumblerusa What an answer!
"Why aren't you finishing your meal?"
-"because I am not finishing my meal"
Ok.. that tells me nothing.
Is it legal issues? Financial? What's the problem with exporting? Are you planning to do it?

@@roetor I see! Thank you for notifying me about Horl 2, didnt know it existed. 🤙
Too complicated man. Turning me off of how this is supposed to be plug and play
To be fair, the complexity of using a whetstone to get a good edge is significantly more complicated. Usually that would be one of the only ways to sharpen effectively.
