also everyone keep in mind that slicing and pushing are different types of cuts and you will need to choose what kind of edge you want for any given knife. most EDCs will be better off with a toothier edge that won't be as good as push cutting

@MrMZaccone 2 жыл бұрын

The same company also makes a more sophisticated system that can measure all aspects of the edge including slicing cuts. That system is why I can tell you that you're wrong about "toothy" edges.

@jawaring4367 2 жыл бұрын

@@MrMZaccone Toothy edges are more versatile and take a fraction of the time to sharpen and keep sharp. A mirror finish "scary sharp" edge is a surefire way to tell that someone only Everyday Caries a knife instead of Everyday Uses a knife. But if all you use your knife for its cutting paper to show people how sharp it is, then sure, spend hours polishing it. It's not my time and money being wasted, I'm not gonna tell you to stop

@@jawaring4367 Nope. All the objective research says you're wrong. That's objective research, not anecdotal bullshit. And I can maintain such an edge at 150 Brubacher or less, all day, with an extra fine ceramic rod I carry and the leather belt I wear routinely. I'd rather start with mirror polish and not need it than need it and not have it. There's nothing "versatile" about pretending your saw is a knife.

You can shave with a 600 grit toothy edge ffs. And what objective testing are you referencing? I would love to see it.

I love how you are actually doing the test correctly unlike so many other people, anyway, I have a SpyderCo. Delica 4 in k390 and I was able to get it to a 67 (average of mid/low 70s) on a test clip for better consistency. I don’t know what it was about your test in this video but I feel it should have been around what I got because of the tests I see you do with your knives after you are done sharpening them. I would say get some test clips and do some tests with them because they are more consistent and accurate most of the time.

Promise I'm not trying to be a dick here, but it's hard not to sound like one when pointing this out - if your business is in sharpening knives, then a reliable, repeatable, broadly relevant (and ideally inexpensive/easy to perform) test that tells you how sharp an edge is, is exactly what you're going to want at the end of the day. Like if you're a cook, then feedback about the taste of your food is pretty helpful, yeah? 👍
