I appreciate all your videos. Thanks

Beautiful edge!

Very nice work!!

You could just run that blade over the stones and not even say anything. I love that sound. Too bad I can't feel it, lol.

Love that long diamond plate!

Another cool video. Thank you

The way you present the blade to the stone matters. Everybody is so impatient. That's why their edges suck.

Great Video. You have helped me a lot in my "sharpening journey". I sent my Spyderco UF back to Spyderco with pictures of the swirl marks that the ceramic stone came with. Spyderco warranty support told me that all the UF stones have swirl marks. I know that Spyderco takes product quality and improvement seriously and the problem may be able to be addressed by using a random orbital buffing process. The swirl marks in the stone are perfectly circular. If all stones are with the swirls .... Lapping is next. Thanks again.

VERY IMPRESSIVE!

Thank you very much for the great video

Thanks Rooster, I do watch you videos all the way through. Just picked up a Spyderco Ultra Fine and an Arkansas Black due to your videos. I must say, the 306UF is the best money I've laid down on sharpening so far. We're gettin there because of you, so thanks again. Would like to have you opinions on fixed blade convex edge sharpening.

Beautiful bevels. I'm still trying to get there when I'm pushing the knife away. For some reason, when I get to the belly and tip, I do something with my wrist/hand that causes me problems on keeping it consistent. No issues on the pull stroke toward me. I'll get there one day. Maybe.

Nice edge man!

Well done.

I've heard a lot of guys complain about lack of flatness of the Spydercos. And that they are stupid hard and difficult to fix the problem.

Patients = results. Great job.

I have a s45 large sebenza 31 on the way. I hope it’s slightly better than s35vn.

The clack on the opening of that knife! Good microphone lol

That s35vn is a keeper enjoy ! 👍

I also try to click through all the comments with a thumbs up. I think it helps with the searches.

You have mentioned using your knives at work here and there.just curious what type of work you do. God bless brother

Chris I need one of those hairs

Thank you for this, and all of your videos. I have seen a VERY popular youtube presenter who sharpens Japanese knives, who recommends holding the blade at a 20° angle to the stone (that's what I understood him to say). This results in a 40° angle at the cutting edge. I just say your presentation on the Opinel knife (lopsided sharpening), and I thought I'd mention the angle. Your viewers might be interested another video on edge geometry (If you don't already have one). Thanks again

Hello make more videos please. Greetings from the Netherlands 👊🏻

People can check their email, or whatever while the video is playing. I turn the volume down if I have to focus on something else. People watching as long as possible really helps the channel.

I really don't know very much about the difference in various steals, but I just got a blade from Medford in the S 35 V and it took a very sharpe edge with all most no effort.

Heck, I guess my comment this morning didn't post....great video, Chris!

i was wondering "how sharp could it possibly get" and then this dude just fuckin feathersticked a strand of hair

Great video, what are you spraying on the dmt? Just water?

Have you sharpened many coated blades? I am wondering if the coating will clog up the stone bad or if the stone has to be cleaned afterwards.

Have you done cold steel s35vn?

mornin’ have you ever just stropped a factory edge? i have a manix 2 in s30v on the way and i didn’t wanna corrupt it too much with my amateur ability lol ty for the content (searched your content for this before i asked btw)

Sup rooster , sweet knife ! Great vid too. Full tang likey sabinza, so how dis it work out did you like it or sell it?

So you don’t keep the convex edge ?

what honing oil is that

Chris sorry about your live show Saturday, the internet was broken for you that’s why some people left in masses, the video was fracked. Whether it was targeted at you or just random is the question. Take a break if you need to but don’t go away please.

you end up keeping it

I am going to ask my doctor if he can get 5 widdle in a row

nice edge, i got two ceramic rods i haven't used in a while but i love them they put one heck of an edge on my knives, in fact i cut myself once right after i honed on one and that was one of the most painful cuts i ever got. and it wasn't even deep. just watching your video while i flatten my Arkansas stones, just doing the coarse work right now. gotta flatten all my naniwa hones too... got a few days of work ahead of me. been tuning up the forge too, still needs some work it aint burning efficiently but i managed to hammer out a couple pair of tongs. hopefully i can get it dialed in soon and i can make a few small knives, id still like to send you one for the channel

Dang view 192.

If you sell it. Lemme know. I'll give ya a offer

2x. Was still slow lol. Great video though

I don't mean to be a broken record. But u-tube can really suck. Channels that you can learn something good and that is fun to watch. But on the other hand they pay these idiots to do all this dumb crap and they're getting filthy rich off of it. What is wrong with this picture
