He's a bloody Aussie mate cmon

there's more asian in Australia than Australian

@@moondaymood. yea he forces it

@@sfall9560 he doesn’t force it. The Aussie accent sticks like glue when you’ve been Brought up here. I’d expect better from all of you. 😂 how is it 2023 and im still explaining this.

Immigrants move to Australia and the Aussie accent sticks over time. Especially if you’ve grown up in Australia like I have. 😂

They good

As i understood they're just finer than steel rods.

They're not that much better

What are they

@@blue_og1668 Honing rods made of ceramic? Pretty self-explanatory.

Finally , someone with gray matter in theyre head ;)

Grooved honing rod and pull through are horrible. Agreed, there is nothing like stone.

Pretty sure i heard him say its just to reline the edge so im sure he knows

the magic of weight loss

Clearly never used any "equipment"😂

I mean I don’t know much about sharpening knives, but that sounds like the kind of thing that will do in a pinch, but isn’t the best

I feel that. I've been using a knife I got from the dollar tree to sharpen my knives. Works wonders for me.

I smell cap

Well maybe do some research and get a proper sharpener personality i use lanskys jig with diamond hones these sharpeners should only be used for really cheap knives even then its almost better to buy a new one the rod shown in the video is actually fairly good but you need a ceramic one as he states the steel isn't hard enough

It sounds almost like he was trying to inflict us with emotional damage.

there indeed a corundum honing rod that also serve as sharpener

Wicked Edge is just a worse version of sharpening stones because it takes time to set up. Get good.

steels suck, like the one that comes with the kitchen set. Ceramic and Diamond stones are top end. Diamond can be really abrasive to put a new edge or fix deep chips but they tend to wear down faster and even more so with softer steel cause it catches the diamond more, they also dont form dips because its solid metal. ceramic are great to put on the final edge, they hardly ever form dips and if they do you can flatten it with a diamond stone. Ceramic also doesnt lose its grit, it just needs to be cleaned (like other stones). take a look at Outdoors55, lots of great info on everything for sharpening.

Indeed as the pro edge at the end was just the amazon one

I tried last night but it just turned into shredded cheese

Nice we have same name we're both judes

Jude! You can't be sewious

I use the spyder co ceramic medium grit. it's about $80 but it can put an edge on round steel if you put in enough time. If the stone ever forms a dip, which should happen almost never because its ceramic, you can flatten it with a DMT diamond stone which is the other stone I use (heavy grit) to fix really bad chips, which the ceramic could still do but wayyy slower. The DMT stone I got was also around $50. After sharpening I highly recommend using a strop with some type of compound on it to remove the burr to complete the process. go take a look at outdoors55, he has a great channel for everything you need to know about sharpening.

Water sharpening grinder. Wen makes one for 140

@@patrickglaser1560 those a great, but 140 is pricey especially for a stone that will hollow out way more often than ceramic and you have to soak them when you use them. Ceramic is either way, just depends on if I feel like cleaning up a bunch of water. Hollowing out is the biggest issue because it will mess up your edge if you dont notice it, which most beginners wont.

Smart Pebble whetstone

​@@darthanubis4204 What's hollowing out?

Honing steel doesn't even hone, all it does it straighten a rolled burr, which shouldn't be on your knife in the first place.

The suspense is killing us! Did you get it???!!?!

DID YOU?????????

Maybe it was too sharp and ended up unaliving him?

diamond stones are great, it usually comes down to preference. they can tend to wear down faster than other types of stones and using a softer steel will wear it faster and itll lose its abrasiveness. On the plus side diamond stones dont form dips in them (because its diamond in steel) causing you to damage your blade and they come in lower grits to really grind out your blade. Other than a diamond stone I would recommend a ceramic stone. they never lose abrasiveness unless it's clogged and needs to be cleaned (like most stones) and it also hardly ever forms a dip, if it does you can flatten it with a diamond stone. go take a look at Outdoors55 channel. great sharpening info.

Diamond stones may fracture carbides and reduce edge durability. That doesn't always happen but it's a frequent issue. If you like to use it I would compare edge durability with an Aluminum oxide stone that leaves similar aggressive edge. Maintenance on AlOx stones are quite fast too.

Bayonets are normally not sharpened. I do have one that is but don't use the steel to do it. A steel is for honing. It can sharpen knives but would take a long time depending on what steel you have. If the bayonet has a more rounded bevel you'll need it profiled to an appropriate angle on both sides probably 21 or keep it simple with 20, pretty much the same. Get a stone and practice if you don't like it there are a lot of shops that sharpen for a fairly enexpensive fee.
