  • @docdavidb this is a terrible tutorial

  • In the end... Lots and Lots of practice.

  • He has my knives!!!

  • while you sharpen ,I'll cook ,coz sharpening is my job ,do your job and give lessons of cooking if you want but please dont teach your own method ,its not really the best way to do . and I can speak cooking I m french !

  • chatter steeling kills the edge that u just made!!!!!

  • toooooooo long

  • @fairhillnorrie they could also ask theyre butcher or go to a slaughterhouse alot of them have a butchsupply store right next to them so they could by an steel there

  • ...Marcus, you should not wobble the steel while doing at. It's all about consistent angle. Also, when you were on the stone, your stroke weren't smooth and consistent. In fact, it appears that you possess the knowledge, but not the skill.

  • At least three mistakes already in three and a half minutes. 1. Do not put the knife's edge perpendicular to the stone. 2. The stone should be stable, and not rocking side to side. 3. You need to condition your stone, it's too concave.

  • Marcus, great tutorial on hand sharpening. For sharpening without power, I think your method makes perfect sense. Personally, I use an electric belt sander followed by a leather strop for my chef knives. The diamond steel or regular steel is used for in kitchen touch-ups.
