How to Sharpen a Knife with a Japanese Master Sharpener

Рет қаралды 5,355,484

Күн бұрын

In New York, there is a premier knife company, Korin, that not only sells some of the best knives but has master sharpeners to keep your edges on point. In this video Vincent, one of Korin's master knife sharpeners, will show you how to properly sharpen your knife. Using a whetstone instead of honing steels or pull sharpeners, your blade will last longer and retain its edge better.
Vince, in this instructional video, will show you what type of sharpening stone to use and why as well as some tips and tricks to figure out what angles to use for the best results.

@illegitimate0 Жыл бұрын

@@mangophett3 Much harder. I would say to consider getting a coarse diamond stone and very carefully set a bevel with an angle reference as well as you can. Like, get something that is the right height, put it under the blade and brace against it and sharpen - that should consistently get you the same bevel for the whole edge. But this is a case that is actually helped a fair amount by someone with a grinding wheel or with one of those angle-setting jigs.

The bad technique of most youtube sharpening videos removes way too much knife metal as well as causing uneven wear on knife and premature dishing in the stone. A problem considering how expensive everything has become.

@Yupppi Ай бұрын

If you have even half decent stone that is relatively hard, you're sharpening knives professionally for years before you wear out your stone. If your stone is dishing, use the flattening stone. The only reason you might be removing too much material is you doing it for too long - an effective material removal is a quality of a stone (and a sign that you're using rough enough grit if you're fixing the geometry instead of just refining the edge). Too much is an adjective describing the user's inability to recognise when the work is done.

@Yupppi Ай бұрын

@@TiagoAlexandrecit is fully dependent on the knife. Many japanese knives are titled as single-edged knives which means they lead to one side (the heavy ratio), while most western knives are double-edged, 50:50 and will not lead to either side. It is generally recommendable to keep the original shape, because changing the edge angle might be an arduous task prone to error, and trying to change the whole bevel might just not work out and even if it does, it removes a ton of material from the whole blade.

@codysykes5568 3 жыл бұрын

Another point I think deserves mentioning is to maintain your whetstones as much as possible; you also want to make sure you aren't just using one section of the stone to sharpen with. Notice how Mr. Lau is using the entire length of the stone! I personally will take my whetstone dry and draw a grid on the top with a lead pencil and use the zeroing stone or flattening stone and just run down the length with about 2-3 lbs of pressure. If you see spots that are still marked after a few passes this shows you that the stone isn't entirely flat.

Added tip, use a pencil to draw a grid across the entire surface of your stone before using the fixer. It'll show you where the uneven spots are. Rub your stone until the whole grid has been erased for a perfectly flat and even waterstone.
