This man needs to be charging at least $8 per blade! He is has a wealth of experience and knowledge

I hesitated to watch an old timer in a 32 mins video, but it was worthwhile, thanks heaps.

Fantastic video, Sir. As someone who uses knifes daily, I can appreciate this video. Sharp knifes matter!

This was very enlightening! There were a lot of things I didn't know and never even thought of. I definitely will be making one of those sharpening stations. Thank you. I always enjoy your videos!

You're giving away all your secrets, sir! :) Thanks for this; I had never thought to use MDF, I've just been using an old leather barber's strop -- your method looks much quicker and more consistent.

Thank you for sharing your sharpening skills & business tips very informative and appreciated.

Wow First time in my life I haven had the feeling that I m watching youtube video..rather like spending good time with a dear family member. So strange 🙂 You have incredible human aura. Bless you good man!

I want to give you a very big thank you. I was a carpenter before my injury that left me paralyzed. I already got the drills, bench, and other tools on my front porch for building bird houses. But, having to buy the wood new leaves little profit because of my tedious building methods. I have been asking God for ideas for making extra money. This is something I can do just as good as a normal person, after experience of course. I will definitely build me a MDF wheel, get the compound, get the rod-washers-bolts, and a medium course grinding wheel. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. I will watch all your videos and write down the specifics. I know a lot of people, hunters, and carpenters. I should be able to supplement my disability well sharpening knives, chisels, other hand tools, etc. Thanks form North Carolina!

You are just a font of knowledge! I’m so glad I found your videos.

Great video carving man glad to see you had a go and made it into a business, great tips in both running a business and skill sets. I keep wanting to get up on the starting blocks but things keep holding me back, I have a fair bit of road traffic going past to 😔 one day maybe

Great video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Best 31 mins of my life watching this. You have a knack of sharing all the nuances. Keep up the good work and looking forward to more videos.

Thanks buddy! You remind me of my grandpa, miss him! I'm gonna show this to my uncle, hes retired and likes doing this stuff anyway

You are my great teacher in this business. Thank you so much.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Looks like a very interesting business venture for me thank you so much.

Very good set up! I learned from this. Greetings from Norway.

the best video that I've seen on this topic - thank you

Awesome video !! A Diamond in the ruff. Thank u for sharing with us.

Excellent video Joe! Could you please share how you made the block for sharpening skates (@4.46). Thank you sir!

Respect for you! You have a great wealth of knowledge which you pass on ...

So glad I found your channel. Simple and easy set up for an effective grinding/sharpening system. Would you please relate the method, materials and sizing where both the buffing and the grinding wheels are on the same shaft. Certainly beats changing wheels everytime. Thank you again.

Wow. Very good video. So much great insight and advice. Thank you 👍

Thank you so much for sharing this!

You're a good teacher sir.

I really appreciate the video, sir. Great information and well presented. Thank you.

Hello Sir love your video. I am retired too and would love start a sharp shop as well. How did you make the wooden tool to hold the file for skate sharpening. It is truly engenious.

how are the discs attached to the drill? are you using a arbor? If so what kind? Love your instructions.

Great information! Thank you!

I’m getting a lot of wobble using the threaded rod. Do you have a technique to get the rod straightened, or just a matter of finding the best rod. Thanks for this. I bought a set of Schaaf tools and they did need sharpening, especially the V-tools, I must have ground about a 1/2” of steel off the tool before watching your video. Made the system and once set up the V-tool was razor sharp in a few minutes.

Thank you for sharing.

Very very nice tips... THANK YOU :-)

Great video and thanks for uploading it...How did you make the long shaft, if you can explain or give a bit more details please. thanks

Hi, thanks for your great video. Can you also sharpen straight razors in this system or will the metal heat too much?

Wow, you only charge $2 per knife 🔪? I am sure you are not in California, cuz I charged $8 per knife.

A very informative presentation. $2.00 per blade seems very cheap to me! What is 54lb stock paper/card in metric units please?

Great video.

I am new to this I have a wet stone a grinder with two stone wheels and a sharpening steel I have practised sharpening my boning knife using the wet stone and get good cutting results on the paper test, but when I try sharpening the small kitchen knives which are made from a much softer steel they are nowhere near as sharp as the boning knife, I guess looking at the knives customers are brining you some of them are also made from a much softer steel would I be better off using the grinder for them, I also like the way you get rid of the burr with that piece of steel great video I will be watching more for sure.

Thank you

Very very very excellent I like it

I just wonder, of you sharpen those knives at 10° angle, how often do your customers come back with em? Like, maybe every 3-4 days ? Cuz no stainless steel with hardness under 59HRC will hold an edge longer than fiew cuts. And when you talk about scissors and say you sharpen them at 15° angle when i can see your angle is atleast 30/35 .... i dont know what to say about all this. Im confused 🙂

Well done.

support the end of grinding wheel shaft. thanks Pat

Very informative video although your prices for sharpening knives are very low.

Rather than using mdf board, could regular softwood or even plywood be used for the buffing wheel? Both the latter are in my scrap wood bin. MDF board is expensive to by now.

Thanks

can you provide me link to buy these both things please. I was checking on Harbor freight but didn't find.

hello i think for the knife take long time you need grit 120- 180- 400 and finally sropping with paffing compound

What grit stone on the drill you have?

That drill with 2 buffs on it is an accident waiting to happen , the front bearing in that isnt designed for those loads . Someome going to hospital or worse .

Does it make a difference if it is mdf or any other wood for sharpening?

Greatings.I'm almost sure the hardness of a few knives etc.will take damage by overheating.This will be more the case with those(coming) with a higher hardness.So not the typical cheap kitchenknife but the high-end supersteel ones.It is all about the heat bildung up in the very thin edge-area.Thouching the blade during sharpening tells nothing about that.

Część. Jaka grubość kamienia ?

Two dollars per sharpening!? That is dirt cheap! You could charge $5 per sharpening and people would gladly pay it.

Two dollars!

This wasn't supposed to be a "how to sharpen skates" video.

Excellent! And for many of us, we already have some sort of sharpening system in place; for chisels, gouges, plane irons and what not. Thanks so much for showing and explaining your set up.

I would love to be in your shop as an apprentice! I love everything you do!

Thanks for all your ways of sharpening! I’ll definitely try some and who knows, maybe a business.

Today I sharpened my plane blade and a knife using a buffing wheel and compound using my drill,... They got scary sharp. Thank you. Greetings from Chile

People will always need sharp knives. Nice little future-proofed business. Thanks for sharing.

Great video! I will have to watch more of them.

Thanks for sharing your business! Love your ideas.

thanks for the hand cleaner idea, I hated trying to get the polishing compound back off. lol

yes was looking for the types of compounds you cleared that up for me very well thank you sir good video

Thanks for sharing so much information with us!!

Wow. I've seen alot of knife sharpening videos and this one is so good. You could charge for a workshop/seminar! GB

Excellent video. It is very informative. I am now a subscriber. Thanks

best 34 min"s of the day thank you

Great video! Good explanations. I also run a small sharpening business. I remove the burr by pulling the edge across the end grain of a piece of hardwood. Just so you know the round rod that comes with kitchen knives is not a file it is just called a steel. It is not designed to remove metal. Fine edge kitchen knives deforms very easily the steel is designed to just realign the edge. A knife steel will not sharpen a knife it just keeps a sharp knife very sharp. It doesn't pull metal off that will get in the food. A steel is not the same as a ceramic stick. Really enjoyed the video.

Love your videos! Always, always informative and enlightening. Thank you, Joe! I’ve been sharpening knives for a few clients (and enjoying it immensely). Fortunately, no one has asked me to sharpen a serrated kitchen knife. I tried sharpening one of my own and ended up with very small serrations. I evidently left it on the grinder too long. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks for the MDF idea

Great stuff! Just getting started myself...how do you handle serrated??

10:50 ouch, that hurts to watch. Great video and thank you for passing along your knowledge. Keep up the great work.

That wheel in the blue drill looks a lot more like a cotton buffing wheel than a scotchbright pad?? Do Scotchbright pads have threads coming off them like that one ? Just trying to understand. Thanks for the Great video! Ive watched lots of sharpening videos but never seen anyone use an actual grinding wheel.

I can only use my right hand and am very interested in your method of sharpening on top of the wheel. Is there any way you would consider making a video on constructing this sharpener? The MDF wheel I've got, but how you attach to the drill and have both wheels on the same thread/rod.

Thanks

Great video, thanks!! BTW, you should charge more. ;) Probably $5... it's 2018!

@12.00 it best not to have the scratch patterns in line with the long axis of the blade, it creates a stress concentration line which in turn predisposes the edge to fold and break along that line. The scratch pattern has to be perpendicular to the long axis

We are currently in the making edges dull business.

Huh? Wouldn’t let him touch my knife!!!

Wow just $2 bucks!

where did your little pinky go
