How to Sharpen a Pocket Knife

[dristan911]

man the lightsaber has a long handle and a short blade

[twinstar9]

Pick "man only " exclusion when there is a valid reason. You are a sexist. Yuch!

[Yakuza5461]

just a tip NEVER sharpen a blade towards you 3:45 !!!!!!!

[PaulTardino]

did you just say you like to finish off by using alternate strokes? ROFL

[7commenter7]

Wait, are you the same guy that has the "if" tattoo?

[TyphloLove]

protip: mineral oil = baby oil

[VideoGameFallout]

3:29 AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

[mrHardcorePunk6]

I have 4 pocket knives that need sharpening lol

[UpgradedWorld]

HOLY CRAP I have one of those knives...

[cannibal566]

Hey thanks for the video man!! Your techniques got my Puma Packer hair poppin' Sharp!! U can literally shave with it. Lol nice video!

[RealChinese]

can baby oil be used as a form of lubricant?

[RDRfreak98]

I Bet You Live With You'r Mom.................

[isaam088]

@RDRfreak98 He actually is a lawyer who lives with his wife and children.

[Teskulthor]

@RDRfreak98 why in the fuck would you say that?

If you weren't mildly retarded you would have noticed he has wedding ring on.

[Crazygamer154]

@RDRfreak98 Jokes on you he is living with his wife :D *Wedding ring*

[lamborghinimonster33]

can you use a sharpen stick used for kitchen knifes??

[nedsp1]

Is it possible to buy a new blade because I tried to sharpen the blade with out lubricant so now the blade is blunt and useless, does anybody know ?

[LotusLeaf88]

@nedsp1 - I'm not really an expert on knives or anything on the topic, so people may disagree with me.

You could try using the Smith's Pocket Pal Sharpener (which is like $8 or $9). It has a carbide slot where all you have to do is insert the blade and pull it through the slot. It strips away metal very quickly, and I find that it's good for grinding a new edge on unusable blades. Then you can probably finish the sharpening on a whetstone.

[nedsp1]

@LotusLeaf88 ,thanks

[HugeWangPiece]

I have the exact same stone and oil haha. Awesome video

[cursedlemon]

I've got 3 pockets in my pocket knife.

[thewafflenator1]

i got 3 pocket knives in my pocket lol

[hogerextrem]

As a lapplander we do the hardwork with a sharpeningstone and spit and we do not stroke the blade like you do at the stone. When doing the precise sharpening we use leather.

[dk101motocross]

tenacious ftw

[lilryan84]

wearing rings is not the art of manliness

[nickycoley1]

@lilryan84

it is if your married to a woman

[llperlrll]

A real man would sharpen it with his ring muscle..!

[nomacreations]

240p is for real men!

[nethermonkey]

you talk way too much about nothing

[DeeTheBomb]

watch?v=Vi2gzCrS-fE&feature=re­lated

this link u sharpen it with a mug

[BombingFromIraq]

faggot

[hippieH8ter97]

If you buy the victorinox tinker special pack, you get the knife, a sharpening ROD the size of a pen, and a case for the rod that has a shirt/pocket clip. All for $20

[CTrane88]

Those, my friends, are woman hands.

[devillord001]

what if u cant find one of those stones cant u just us a regular old brick with a fine smooth edge or is there another way besides a stone

[xMikePADDLEx94]

this guy seems like he gets it in alot...

[TEfanboy]

cool. My dad gave my a knife like that to 

[KENJI92799]

elbow grease and apple.... eww lol

[blade700000]

I am a new pocketknife owner and this video really was thorough and i thought it was awesome.

[Postwarchives]

i have a knife similiar to yours, love the video thank you

[clockwork624]

if i used a rock would it work?

or a brick lol

[blowupuate13]

@clockwork624 it would be a really rough edge this way you get a clean edge

[greyspot00]

Elbow grease? I thought you were using mineral oil.

[Clyon16]

how many pocket knifes can the stone sharpen?

[policeman1313]

I don't think a knife blade can overheat and warp while you're sharpening it.

[nesson36]

can you use a small rock to shapen the pocket knife?

[ZzX42]

omg 2:31 - 2:46 thats what she said!!

[999thisisstupid]

What's a good lubricant to use?

[Jackleandcheese]

@999thisisstupid ky his and hers.. oh wait, you ment.... dammit.....

[Corvis4]

@Jackleandcheese That is hilarious!

[krishood12]

is that a kabar pen knife?

[jmg1957]

cool..

[kam1kazy]

@GregorGrigorio Well nice of you to copy-paste stuff. Maybe one day you'll use it in the real world and you'll see that WD-40 isn't primarily used as a lubricant, although it has small lubricating properties. It's used to degrease shit and protect from water. It being a lubricant is merely a secondary use. If you want anything lubricated, you'll buy and use something else.

[Ivarsday]

I dont use a sharpening stone. I Just keep a knife sharp with steel and/or a lether belt. After each work I make my knife sharpen edge better with steel and if I need a razor sharp knife I work a litle bit with leather belt. And thats all. If you keep your knife sharp you dont need a sharpening stone or other sharpening accessores. Ofcourse if you have dull knife than you need a sharpening stone. My grandad use a sharpening stone, but he use water. Stone is wet and the job is the same.

[Will33211]

I use WD-40 to lubricate my stone

[kam1kazy]

@Will33211 Except that WD40 isn't a lubricant.

[MrBuginator]

i like using my GF for a sharping stone....ROFL lol im 12 not really

[GMGvanS]

@MrBuginator Wow, you should become a comedian.

[machinegunkittypycho]

get a sypder sharpening system...and while your at it become an educated man and learn about blade steels and get yourself a good knife....rule of thumb if it cost under 40$ and does not give 440c or aus8 blade steel then it is a peice of shit

[sk8r2473]

kan u use a brik? im cheap haha XD

[newcoyote]

@sk8r2473 Yes, in fact you can. Murray Carter has a video showing how sharp you can get a blade using a cinder block. The point being, skill and technique are more important that the tools.

[kingmichaelb123]

olive oil is also a great lubricant for the stone and its easy to get. thanks for the video!

[wbesalke]

@kingmichaelb123

terrible idea. it'll go rancid..

[TheODST100]

@resadrianlk i do lolz

[butheads4]

was that lighter fluid you used as oil

[BallisticTristan]

can I use baby oil since it's mineral oil based?

[RocafellaAF1]

@BallisticTristan Yes u can

[MrZotZot]

Duude just get a Spyderco Sharpmaker if you don't know how to sharpen a knife. It's simpler than a stone which is kind of advanced.

[beakfast]

I bought a fifteen inch survival knife and on the holster a two inch by one inch sharpening stone was included, what do

[theamazingjoshua95]

i ahve the same one ;O

[MrStantonP]

Wow! For someone who professes "manliness" you certainly know your english grammar quite well. Caviat!

[morewhitethanu]

Home Depot, norton sharpening stone $4.98 super cheap, just picked one up

[mixwell1983]

I personally like the serrated blade folding knives.. I used to carry one before but it was a shitty swap meet one and since I've never carried one.

[pquinn96]

@mixwell1983 same, i have a real nice black lockback knife and i serated the edges and now its great

[Shetasen]

I think every girl should have a pocket knife too. ^^ As a girl I use to carry around scissors and all little whatnots with me, got a pocket knife for my birthday from my friend, best gift I ever got! Thanks for the video!

[doggyw67]

@Shetasen amen to that!

[xcobra5x]

@Shetasen marry me

[MrARollo]

@ Gabbyinthedark

Its PUT some back into it not BUT. Nice try though. Did anyone else think it was odd the direction he was sharpening the blade? I learned different...

[RCPOD]

That my friend is a manly man. lol

[asdfghjkl101000]

OMG I GOT THAT SAME KNIFE FOR FREE

[72ve17]

on prison they know how to make a knife on almost anything

[Fairstyker]

Actually I have run into many situations where I use my pocket knife daily. Such as using my blade as a screwdriver.

[diornotwar123]

Who needs a fucking pocket knife?

[PotatoMasher1234]

OMG! I got the same knife from my uncle :D!

[vietmarinejustin]

Lol stupid "where can I get elbow grease?"

[longshawt]

Is there like a substitute for the oil like water if you don't wanna spend on the oil

[andre0407]

If you use oil, keep using oil. If you use water, you have to use a water type stone, like the ones from Japan.

[longshawt]

thnx

[mustangfootball63]

diamond stone i like it better

[TopGun1113]

@longshawt well WD-40 works

[pooroldKawliga]

Brilliant comments. Morons. Good vid.

[VTwanderer]

A Sand stone will work, If you ever go trout fishing in any free stone rivers/streams, look for flat sand stones. THey absorb oil just like a regular sharpening stone and work great for axes and such.

[turdbug]

damit now i want a fucking appel and i dont have any in the fridge damit but im going to try this

[jtypo]

very nice! Im a member of your site! :) Im prolly going to put a vid on how to sharpen a knife as well, on my show DIY. if you wanna see it, just go to my page, thank you

[DakotaHarbottle]

worked great for me! thank you

[lildude4231]

get a rock from outside

[flarith]

It'd have to be a smoothish type of rock. A rough one wouldn't work to well..

[omg987456321]

where do i buy elbow grease? XD

[HuSsLeHawKiNs]

haha u stupid fuck

[mixwell1983]

@omg987456321 - You go to your local Home Depot and pick up a mexican or 2 if it's a big job.. Sad but true.. haa

[naka538]

@mixwell1983 HAHAHA

[superboydude54]

@omg987456321 holy crap i was thinking of saying that while i was watching the video! WEIRD!

[legodude1234563]

@omg987456321 its made by by your elbow!

[kam1kazy]

@omg987456321

Same place you get your headlight fluid.

[kam1kazy]

@omg987456321

Same place you get your headlight fluid.

[p16steagel]

How do I sharpen my boujie knife?



[jonnboy1234567890]

@omg987456321 any of ur local hardware stores

[JJJJJJlp]

can anyone tell me where i can get this stone because plan buying the t lyte with a zytel handle this month thank you ii would really appreciate it

[darmanbuttermilk1137]

i take a rock,hit id with a hammer, and sharpen at an angle

[flarith]

Wouldn't it have to be a bigish type of rock? That way it doesn't bust into shards?

[Sportschrome]

does this scratch the knife? and does a kitchen sharpener scratch the knife?

[SageSofa]

Good vid. Knives are tools.

One tip: Stop just shy of letting the tip come off of the end of the stone. That will keep you from rounding off the tip. ;-)

[criminal637]

haha did that apple taste like loob?

[GabbyInTheDark]

well im using my kitchen knife sharpener.... XD

[ZombifiedGuitarist]

this vid is rugged

[Redfield1295]

is it ok to use olive oil or canola oil??

[zo3ytig3r]

you have some pretty hands...

[skywalker040]

I have that exact same knife my grandfather had one and when he died he actually left that to me. he also left me his .22 which was nice!

[TheRIPPERvideos]

do you have a tutorial on how to apply the elbow grease you mention in the video?

[GabbyInTheDark]

Idiot. Elbow grease is a euphemism for force. you know, but some back into it?

It means hard work. Google it. Dumbass.

[wowdeathangell]

i dont have a stone , this one vid said to use the bottom of a coffe cup lol

[Badwordf]

Thanks for the vid.

[lalaboy9294]

tom cruise? p:

[louis1x]

he does sound like tom cruise, doesnt he?

lol

i thougt the same thing

[demon4life2009]

I have the same exact pocket knife! I got it from my grand father.

[fatidus]

LOL me too!!i have the exact same knife!!except mines like rusty and old :/

[flarith]

If it's rusty, just sand it a bit.. :)

[xzdominicxz]

dude you dont need lubricant just use your saliva!

[nyfries]

i have a tiny chip on the tip of my benchmade mini griptillian and it pains me everytime I see it.

Will the sharpening process fix the tiny chip on the tip?

[Myersblood]

yes it will, my winchester pocket knife loocked like a saw blade but i sharpened it and it was fixed quite nicly

[wombatthing]

yes

[itzderric95]

i used vegtable oil would that work

[TheRealMrPositive]

i got 2 of the same knife!!! :D

[gospelmusiclover48]

Thats one awesome song. What is it called?

[coolmike97]

looks like zippo lighter fluid XD lol

[cubemike99]

actually you are not suppost to put too much pressure into it. Just the weight of the knife + a tiny bit.

[lost14559]

ur completly right about that but most ppl dont have that kind of pashents and tend 2 try 2 speed things up a bit sure its not as afective but its faster and thats what ppl want these days is fast no pashents 4 any thing

[fordf1502]

I use WD 40

[gamergirl8745]

can you use vegetable oil instead of lubricant?

[darkpheonixfire]

vegetable is considered a lubricant

[505StackLoc505]

do u need the lubricant?

[Jaker155]

thats what he said! hahahaha

[dr09294]

rofl

[812bluegrass812]

(at 4:22) the reason you drag the knife away from you backwards and bring it back to you backwards is not a sharpening preference. Its for safety reasons. Its not the greatest idea in the world to be pulling the sharp end of a knife towards yourself .

[timmytabs12]

me 2 fagz

[baldguy330]

what the freak my dad has the same knife too...no joke

[Jaker155]

omg...so does mine im not even lying lol!

[505StackLoc505]

wow mine has the same one too what the hell hhaa!!

[Chiefhalo19]

h.o.l.y. c.r.a.p... my dad has the same friggin knife, that is crazy. Great vid btw

[ksalanpang]

XD did you really wash off the lubricant before cutting an apple

Nice guide to sharpening a pocket knife. And yes I finally see you :P

[FlUdDeStRoYeR94]

are you gay

[havoc1455]

hahahaha

[RodneyHampton]

Wrong.

[deedas]

Tell that to the next person that goes to the ER.

[JaenosJelantru]

I have carried a pocket knife since my grandfather gave me my first one at 8 years old. I usually carry one in my pocket, a bigger one in my laptop bag and always have a Leatherman on me, on the belt. Thanks for the great video and easy lesson, pretty much the same way my grandfather taught me as a young man. I can't count the times I have saved the day by having a sharp blade when needed.

[BREENNTTT]

you stab some1? lol

[JaenosJelantru]

I've never stabbed anyone. Saving the day is a figure of speech, but yes, I have had a knife and cut a rope wrapped around someone while they were getting squeezed before and I'm glad I had a well sharpened knife. It's an invaluable tool every man should carry.
