Sharpeners tested: TORMEK T-8, TSPROF, Wicked Edge, KME, Lansky, Warthog, Speedy Sharp, Work Sharp Ken Onion, Smith’s. All of the knife sharpeners demonstrated for set up and use, sharpening performance, and blade edge durability. Also, two of the knife sharpeners used to sharpen a knife built from scrap metal. I purchased all of the sharpeners to ensure unbiased results. So, thank you for supporting the channel.

Also the upbeat and clear presentation and well thought-out tests, of course. Thank you especially for this video because I would have never found out about the Lansky Sharpener without your video. Was going to buy a Knife Sharpening Stone set and free-hand sharpen. And while that's cool, the Lansky is going to take a lot of the guesswork out of the process.

I started out with a lansky kit about 20 years ago. A few years ago I switched to the KME system. It was a familiar system that was similar enough to the Lansky to be instantly user friendly. But it is much more precise and infinitely more expandable. For personal use I think the KME is about the best balance of ease of use and precision.

I put myself forward in acknowledgement to the test range. I have owned and gifted Lansky's in the 1970s. I am a major fan of TSProf (tech studio profiler). I Have many TSProf rigs and I buy Edge Pro Stones diamond matrix full weight stones to use in the tools. I gift sharpening rigs to my kin. I will not gift the tool without Edge Pro Stones in a TSProf rig. The mechanics of the TSProfiler are absolute to create sharp perfectly aligned 180 degrees out. a recipe for a true edge refined to fine machining and engineering.

same here, I have a Lansky and I take it with me to work. I work on a tug boat and the knives here get some true abuse. from using the chef knife to scrape old grease from the stove to chipping ice ... I end up using the bench grinder about twice a year to rescue them because someone chopped through bones or stuff I don't even wanna think about. The Lansky brings them back up to fillet cutting performance. I would never bring a more expensive grinding system to this environment.

I have Lansky and KME, the KME is more precise and comprehensive but for my high end folders and slip joints, I always use my Lansky and the results are always phenomenal (hair popping, paper towel slicing sharp)! The most interesting part of this excellent test is the Lansky is near the top for the least money. If you buy the basic Lansky (non Diamond) but use the coarse Diamond home to get your burr as the first stone, you can get these results and maybe even a bit better for less than $60!

Just all the behind the scenes stuff for what you accomplish in a typical week. Break it down day by day, getting good B-Roll.

The company went under; pretty sure the pledge of replacement won't be honored by the new brand, will it? **sigh** HF actually sells some pretty good wrench handles:in 1/2" I bought one made of composite with TPM sides and a socket release button, with about 50 clicks/360°. Another has a heavy handle a tilt head and a release button with ~72 clicks. Yet another has a chromed shaft, TPM/rubberized grip and very distinct clicks - 72. Also a set of stubby ratchets with tilting heads on sale - included a 1/2", a 3/8", and a 1/4" drive. They were all under US$20. The crapsman was ~$35.

I picked the kme over the others when I was choosing a guided system because of price and the extras you can get if you want. Convex rod, different grit stones, recurve stone, strops, and the laying films. They make almost anything you would need to make what ever edge you need. I still prefer freehand sharpening on longer blades due to the angle changing from tip to heel on fixed systems.

The KME is my favorite too of the guided systems although I went with whetstones for myself, I like the more time and attention you have to put in it. My first knives already came out scary sharp so I'm a happy camper. But I get the appeal of the KME, it has just the right amount of features without being as in depth as that TSProf, and I imagine availability of different stones and accessories might come into play as well. But you know, sometimes I use sandpaper on a flat ceramic tile for things like tools when I need to do some proper re-beveling of rusty blades or chisels, so there's a use case for very basic setups like that too.

How much comes off is all up to you. The worse off a blade is to start with, the more that has to be taken off to repair it. It's also up to you as far as how much YOU grind off with the sharpener. Yes, you CAN oversharpen your knife, and take much more off than necessary. Stop frequently while sharpening and inspect, once its ground off, obviously you can't put it back on.

Project Farm vids are always a pleasure. It's little wonder that 2.62 million subscribers rely on you for unbiased opinions. I used a Lansky vice type stone kit for enough years to deform the stones to unusable. Another problem with Lansky's thin stones is they could catch and roll your fingers onto a sharp blade. Switched to a Smith's kit with the same basic function but with diamond grit sharpeners. Wider "stones" for more stability, assembles in seconds and at $35 for a 3 stone kit it's a very satisfactory sharpener.

@@muxahx3096 this is not necessarily true. A micro saw toothed edge will slice more aggressively if the blade is dragged, but the points of those teeth also blunt and dull faster. A very smooth but sharp edge will slice with hardly any pulling and will remain sharp longer. Some engineering journal actually published a study on this. Micro-sawtoothed edges are not universally desirable. In the tests done in this video, the test cuts were done with a direct push, not with a dragging motion. Without a dragging motion this kind of test would not show any advantage to having microsaw structures because sawing necessarily requires the sawteeth to drag across the thing being cut.

@@orion7741 I have to disagree. Fact of the matter is, unless you are sharpening knives professionally, you won’t be able to get the EXACT degree of angle to sharpen on every stroke. Is this stroke 22 deg? Is this stroke 20deg? You don’t know. For the average joe that wants their knife sharpened once a year, these systems get the edge consistently at the correct angle, each time, every time. It takes the guess work out. Which is what you need for a sharp knife. So yes, you DO need these systems.

I've owned that Lansky for approx 15 years and for the money it puts a good edge on my knives. I make knives, so what matters to me is how fast can I dial in my initial edge geometry. Once you have that, most of these sharpeners are pretty much the same. Edge retention has a lot to do with the steel, and as long as you are under 200....you've got a sharp working knife. The Ken Onion Worksharp is great to get your initial geometry if you are making a knife. If you are just sharpening a commerical blade, any of these work. It comes down to budget.

Another great review - thank you! Idea for a possible future review - TV antennas, for those of us not willing to pay the cable/satellite bills. So many to choose from, many of which look alike. Bet you could help figure out which antenna works best for the $$

Wir haben den TSPROF K03 als Geschenk aus Deutschland Kaufland für meinen Vater bestellt. Er schärft Messer für jeden, den wir kennen. Er war sehr zufrieden damit!

You made your knives as sharp as some of the knife enthusiasts on youtube lol, well done! Note that I believe all sharpeners benefit from the strop + compound Did you strop the Smith's knife? I suspect it had a micro burr that basically bent while cutting through the wood. Stropping likely would've removed it.

I recently went from my set of water stones to a flattening stone, a single DDT 8 inch continuous diamond steel and a leather strop per outdoor55's suggestion. I get my knives very sharp with just that and haven't looked back since. It would be interesting to see how this method compares!

I followed Outdoor55’s advice too. I went thorough the same progression as you. I did splurge on a kangaroo leather strop for my pocket and field knives.

Call me old fashioned, but I learned to sharpen knives on an Arkansas whet stone. I have a diamond "stone" now which does a nice job, but I still finish on a fine whet stone. Those machines are for people who haven't learned or won't learn to sharpen a knife by hand. Once learned, the skill is yours for life.
