All these sharpeners and sharpening videos and you still haven't learned the basics of sharpening? It's ALL about the BURR my guy, THE BURR.

No

The sharpener u used first requires the stones to be wet!!!!! I have the exact same kit and my stones are in great shape even after sharpening more than 50 blades

@@frogsnacks correct!!!! Sharpen til u feel a burr then repeat the other side then rotate to remove burr and polish

Also u got such a sharp blade cause thats made from good steel.

Ceramic tile? Travertine? Limestone? Lessgettit!! 💪🏻🤣

im down with this...

Also used for knives the First Nations room has a slate arrow head and its deadly sharp and that’s just chipping at it so I wonder how sharp modern tech can make it probably fuckin slice your hand off if you look at it type sharp

The type of "rock" matters. Thr best would be obsidian, but it's pointless when you have metal and especially with all the blade steels we have today. Just look up the hardest blade steel and get him to do that

It's a unique process called Flint-knapping I think Edit: I know the name, I just cant spell. I doubt that the stuff he has would work.

This comment has me dying😂

I agree

I might be reading it wrong, but what does, "C VOID WARRANTIES," mean?

@@stevegroark2034 my sleepy mind got "covid warranties" lol

@@stevegroark2034 it says “I void warranties”

@@stevegroark2034 That C is supposed to be an I. It’s the outline of the letter and his lettering just wore right there

Its because it’s probably cold steel

@@petiebowen8746 Don't insult sweatshops by comparing them to cold steel.

its most likely the steel quality. a double grind edge, even a TERRIBLE one, can hold up pretty well on decent steel

Yeah we gonna blame the manufacturer., not Tyler that tried to literally beat the holy out of his Katana.

@@darrelladams4188 if it was good enough steel, the katana would have snapped by now

Well yes and no. The fancy gadget is there to help first and foremost. Either it helps new people to get their skills going without fucking anything up or it's there for pros who have to do a lot of knives in a relatively short amount of time. Of course doing something good by hand is one of the best options. As you're a chef... it's great to be able to cut things fast by hand, but how many slicers, mandolines, graters etc. exist to make cutting easier for amateurs (or chefs, like the stuff a good mandoline can do would be close to impossible to do by hand without taking ages). It's not bad because it's a gadget. If it gets you started or does something really fast you otherwise wouldn't have done, it can still be worth it.

Shouldn't he have wetted the stones on the first gadget?

I'm also a chef. I pay someone £3 per knife to do it for me cause I can't be bothered 🤣

I've said that for all his sharpening videos! You can use an actual rock (wet) as long as it's a smooth sharpening surface.

It's cold steel lmfao they already come with -10% sword 😂

also if you slow mo it the tip of the sword hits the table a little on contact with the bottle so arrest of momentum doesn't help either

Yeah although curved blade like a katana help edge alignment if you do a draw cut kinda like pulling motion as you hit the thing

This dude understands the assignment, watches alot of forged in fire 👍

@@brandonchappell8545 Actually Shadiversity and Skallagrim.

Yeah, you can tell it takes skill, focus, and the ability to keep the katana at the right sweeping angle on the swing. I would like to see a talented swordsman do the same test, with different swings

This would just be a repeat of the plastic video mixed with the pizza cutter video.

F O R E V E R

Forever

Hmmmm good question

until one day an archaeological team digs up the garage. somewhere in a far away future

Probably about a month before it starts to mildew and mold up and he's forced to hire people to get all that mess cleaned up or the city will start putting down fines for it.

ive also heard diesel/kerosene works beter

I think it depends on the stones. Idk anything else other than that so he may have those stones 🤷‍♂️

@@garrettmuir4150 Those work great but they also wreck your stones. Once they're soaked in that you'll never be able to soak them in just water again.

There are stones made for using water and some made for using oil. Only use water on water stones and only use oil on oil stones.

There's a variety of different stones. Some require soaking in water, some need a small layer on top, some need a small layer of oil on top, some (like diamond stones) you don't use either. Always go with what the type you have requires. For the record, he did soak the stones. He didn't show that in his video, but with enough experience you can tell it was.

If your looking to sharpen razor blades a strop is the only thing that will make it exceed a razor sharp edge.

Bru it is called a razorblade because it is RAZOR SHARP

Some people actually sharpen their razor blades. 🤷‍♂️ With enough skill you can get them razor sharp. All my knives will shave, and they don't have the approximately 5-10° angle of a razor.

@@jatbatman Ay yo I put a secondary 20 degree bevel on my working razors. If I'm just using it on soft material I'll strop it to keep using it.

@@TheBudgetguy_K.T isn't a scalpel sharper then a razorblade?

Yeah that’s what I was thinking to.

Me and my husband were just talking about that. We own katanas, it’s side to side ONLY. It’s the same as a kitchen knife

@@Meowz3r hes trying his best 😂

@@zonk6115 go away bot

I bet he is wearing his black slides.

I think in prior videos he has those arch-velcro sandals with socks.

Sometimes I like to call it the "butter knife"

Which kit dude

@@Bigtexbbq if u dont know what hes talkin bout just sit down bruv tyler used the "kit" for 6 mins or somethin in the vid lol

@@oleric3309 he used a sharpening vise and then switched to whetstones. Both use stones as the main abrasive. The “kit” could have been either method which is why I was asking clarification.

@@oleric3309 smartest British person 😭

jea, like every time i see my mother use a blade. Why the heck do you have your hand/fingers infront of the edge and not on the backside of the blade? 2 Days later: "jea i cut myself again" me: "duh"

Hate to break this but Acids will etch or rust and the only thing that will mellow steel is heat thus heat treating a blade.

Aye what he was doing worked he got a 105 crazy sharp

If you're trying to hog out material for something like a full angle change, it's useful to go back and forth, when you've propperly apexed your edge, and want to sharpen it properly, it's much better to only work into the edge.

i tried an angle grinder and completely butchered the edge i had going. chipped it in several spots and dug little gauges in it unevenly. i have no idea how people get so good at that stuff.

@@thatguybrody4819 Use flap discs of progressing grits, I start with 60 and then 120. Than 2 polishing discs, the last one with compound, and you´ll get a mirror edge. You will have some burr left. Don´t use grinding wheels. Take it slow, and cool your edge down with water pretty often. Start with for example axes and a low angle, i.e. a large edge surface, it will be easier to keep an angle. A little convexity is only good. You will get that muscle memory pretty soon and think it´s easy :)
