Something that i learned when using this is that i like to put erasers on my ceramic rods to get the metal off of it, i also like to put the plates through water to get the metal off as well from the plates. the goal here is to increase the lifespan of the plates by also maintaining it's ability to maximize the efficacy of sharpening. For those that havent cleaned their plates in a long while, use gentle dishsoap and a dollar toothbrush to brush along the plates to get all the metal shavings out of the diamond ridges. There is also an arrowhead holder behind the plates too, so you can lift the plates, put the arrowheads inside the slot, and then carefully sharpen. I need to get more compound to put on the strop but this is a nice video. thank you much!
Tip. The diamond surfaces, being magnetic, can be flipped over, thus protecting from dirt, etc. when transporting on camping/hunting trips, etc. I also find it's easier to hold the knife firmly by the handle and run the worksharp along the blade, rather than try to hold the worksharp by the end and run the blade along the abrasive surface. There just isn't enough to hold onto on the worksharp to keep it steady, and there are no tables out in the field to set it on anyway.
I bought 2 of these based on reviews, one in the kitchen, one in the shop. Thanks for the very helpful "how to" video. And wow, I've never been very good at sharpening. I was able to get my orange buck 284 shaving sharp following your instructions. Now, with patience, I have lots of knives to sharpen. I'm hard on edges, so 20° is just fine.
Very happy with most Work Sharp products. Still wish they'd just offer this Field Sharpener with a 17° angle guide as well. One for the field with 20°, one for the kitchen with 17°. Would be all that most people need.
@@yakfishin4912 I'm from Germany so I can't really provide a good link but the name of the product is: "Work Sharp Guided Sharpening System" @JonFox1945 Sorry for the late reply, didnt see you asking. Hope you had found it already!
Work Sharp should have a link for this video on a QR code on the packaging. I’ve had mine for years and this video is better than anything they’ve put out themselves.
I have a lot of different sharpening systems, most of them are from Worksharp, including Precision Adjust. But this one is one of the most versatile, it gives the easiest and fastest sharpening result for me. Love it! 👍
Was doing some research on sharpeners (top 10 lists) and the Work Sharp was on many of the lists. Came across this video and liked what I saw, especially the ease of use. Picked one up yesterday at Lowes $29 and just now sharpened two knives. Worked fantastic on both my Boker Drop Point Kalashnikov Auto and my CRKT Tanto LCK Linerlock!!! This video was clear and informative, thank you!!!
I have one and it works outstanding if you follow Matt’s instructions. But for best results get a better leather strop for a better final edge. Great product.👍👍
i bought this recently and i can attest...works very well and produces a razor sharp edge. much better results than i was able to achieve with my lansky ceramic rod sharpener.
I do photography and am very very impressed with your camera work. The multiple angles to help show it from many views. I’ve only seen something this well with a videographer I follow. Good work. I came across this video because I have there kitchen version and wanted something to keep in my hunting bag.
Hey Jake! I appreciate the kind words. I am actually a videographer myself 😄. I think this would be amazing to keep in your hunting bag. I need to buy another to keep in my vehicle!
Just bought one and used it on a small Victorinox kitchen knife that could barely cut a tomato. Even at 20 degrees, its cutting paper better than a Spyderco PM2 I just bought. This product is very well designed.
All my knives are insanely sharp now because of this lil bad boy. My big bowies to my lil 3 inches. All shaving hair. My edc sog terminus is stropped exaggeratedly and so it effortlessly shave hair like a razor. Love it. Highly recommend
Dont forget the small ceramic portion for serrations. Also has 2 broadhead wrenches under the metal plates for tightening or removing broadhead arrowheads.
The thing I like about this is I've been sharpening my knives on the bottom of a ceramic coffee cup going by to the sixties when my Mama taught me how.
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.
I just got it today, tried it on my spyderco tenacious and srm 9211. Both knifes were pretty dull and even tho i didnt do a good job sharpening it, it is sharper. Atleast a little better. I hope that i will do better next time. Its a great sharpener but i lack skills.
I’ve had one for years. It’s hard to get the hang of it. don’t use the angle prop on that side because it’s not the same angle as the other. Just eye ball it. Don’t go to hard on the ceramic, go on one side and once on the other side a good 4-6 times lightly and you will get it hair razor sharp. Don’t use the leather strop or you will get rid of your edge:
Step 1: using the lighter grit sharpen one side of you’re blade counting the passes you make until you feel a burr/ lip form on the blade then repeat the same amount of passes on the other side. Step 2: on the same grit alternat passing/sharpening it to once on one side then the other. Untill it passes the (finger nail test). Step 3: Turn your sharpener to the porcelain side (do not use degree angle on this side, just feel out the angle) and LIGHTLY and GENTLY!sharpen your blade alternating on one side and the other until you can shave hairs of your arms or legs. Step 3: Do not use strop, it will dull out your hair shaving razor sharp blade.
I love those! So much so, I bought two of them. I keep one in my backpack, and one in the jeep. I also got one of the WorkSharp Precision Sharpeners, and for $50 it can't be beat. It's definitely not the nicest sharpener in the world, but it is pretty amazing. I double-dog dare anyone to find a better value for the price. I REALLY want to try the upgrade kit for the precision sharpener. I hear it really completes the set for people addicted to blades.
I know many people need help with sharpening...not everybody has the time to learn to freehand. But, it IS A SKILL that can be had with no fancy helpers. Or $$$
I agree 100%. Do not waste your money on small slide through knife sharpeners. For the price, this is the one to get, and it will be useful for all kitchen knives as well, including serrated bread knives that you can sharpen using the rotating white ceramic rod or the small rod on one side.
What about the round rolling tumbler sharpeners with stones on either end that are advertised now. It seems useful in that they hold the knife at a constant angle with magnets. What is your opinion of these sharpener systems?
@@CorneliusCreations your welcome !sorry for taking so long to get back to you I been frustrated with some of my new viewers so I took a brake from my comments and am now trying to plan a response video.
I would never have believed that a product designed to sharpen knives, sharpens knives. Thankyou man who wears his clothes backwards for this very informative advertisment for this product.
@@CorneliusCreationsIt's an overpriced whetstone with "guides" that still won't guarantee the user will keep the same angle when sliding the knife along the stone. And, it's a small whetstone, thus only suited to small knives. And, you link to Amazon products. Thus IMO, you're just another YT advertiser.
@@keviningles5580Could be 50 strokes or 5. Depends on how dull knife is, how worn diamonds are, how much pressure you use. I keep all my knives very sharp so a few strokes would get mine back.
I have this sharpener and it’s great. My only complaint is it’s not good for serrated knives. The thin little ceramic rod on the side (NOT the main rod) doesn’t do a great job on serrations. But for plain edge knives this system is great.
You can remove the diamond plates and take them to the tool to sharpen I take them off to sharpen my axe it’s a very versatile piece you can also remove the ceramic rod by removing the metal pin that holds it in place. When you have one you will see what I mean . You can remove it if you have a large knife you want to sharpen without the guides on ceramic . Also a good tip
I have the same sharpener on the opening. 2 diamond surfaces, ceramic rod and leather strop. An all in one that works great. And I am in Costa Rica.where much as this is hard to impossible to find.
Bought the cheaper version of this last year and it worked well with my gerber while packing out my elk. Elk hide wears the hell out of any blade but the sharpener kept me in it after forgetting my spare outdoor edge blades.
My best friend dang near cut his finger off after sharpening his knives on this sharpener. After that I was sold. I bought two of them. One for my work bench, and one for my pack.
Is it ok to hone at 25° after sharpening at 20° i have ome of these but cannot seem to get a knife hair shaving sharp no doubt its my technique but eager to learn
I find that if you hold the knife with your index finger on the side of the blade and your thumb on the top or bottom of the handle it will lock your wrist for more accurate repetitive strokes.
Put a sharpie mark along the bevel and as you sharpen you will be able to see where you are removing metal. Keep going on coarse till you grind off all black marks. Then repeat on fine.
Very good video Matt! I have a Lansky kit but the one bad thing about it is that it isn't descriptive on what angles are at each hole nor what angles I should be using. Thanks!
I can promise you that I will be unable to sharpen my knifes on this device. I fought the battle for years of trying to “hold the same angle,” to no avail. Just because somebody in a video can do it is irrelevant. There are plenty of videos of people getting shaving quality edges with plain flat stones- doesn’t matter with me. My problems went away when I spent $25 on a Lansky set.
@@Centurion323 There are a number of brands out there now that do the same, i.e., control the edge angle of the blade. When I got my Lansky set, it was pretty much the only one out there- so shop around. I have the regular stones, and the set is priced pretty reasonably. Lansky also makes diamond stones now, but of course they’re pricier.
my question is why do i found out about this now? after i bought a vulcanus sharpener for $100? gets the job done almost but cant slice paper like that

Sharpening stone can detach from the sharpener, you can wipe ceramic rod with cloth, with rotating. You will most likely not going to clean leather.

Amazon is probably the best place. Also, local jewlery stores will probably give you some if you ask.
