Also don't sharpen a knife when stoned and drunk!!

@milesfinch Not stoned just drunk......

[modernblacksmith]

kind of a mess...but it can easily be fixed (you'll loose that black coating however) but good to see that you can admit how you screwed up in order to teach others what not to do... for that I give you a thumbs up!

@modernblacksmith Thank you so, so much... Moast ppl on youtube just say bad things to me...

you can send it to John Fitzen in America for reprofiling (which I assume that what you were trying to do because you were using a grinder) i know it is expensive to ship to america and back but you only have to do it once for each knife. his phone number is (801) 918-3725. it will be 10 american dollars for a knife under 10" over 10" is 15" is 15 american dollars plus shipping. not sure what that is in your currency.

jesus, what'd you sharpen that with? A chainsaw?

[MrAwsomeGuys]

you probably should have practiced on some cheap thing first

[nestornegron]

You should consider hammering the edge flat. Then, reprofile the top of the knife.

It's good to destroy one knife since it'll increase your appreciation for sharp knives and how it's done properly. I've ruined a few knives in the past using grinding wheels too, instead use a series of rough files (start with a "bastard" file to shape the blade) then go through to smoother files. You'll be able to put a good shape and edge on it, then to put a razor's edge wrap the smoothest file with newspaper since it's easier to hold a consistent angle to sharpen it.

did you cry after you did that?

[n9xrr]

Should still be good for hacking bodies to pieces!

I wanted to thank you for the video. Not for it's content as any bone-head should know better than to abuse a knife in that manner. But I do appreciate all the comments the vid generated that had me laughing.
