Magnetic Attachment compatible with WorkSharp Precision Adjust
Folks, something I did not fully cover in the video. If your knife does not have a flat area (grind plane that is parallel to the attachment) to sit on the magnet, there are some additional considerations to setting angle. As if your knife were to have a beveled grind. Contact me on Etsy if you need help with this.

There has been an update to the design!! Watch this video instead: ruclips.net/video/b8netVFCReo/видео.html User guide for the Magnet attachment for Worksharp Precision Adjust A few customers of mine have asked me to make a video guide on how to set up and use this attachment. www.etsy.com/shop/Practical3DP www.ebay.com/str/practical3dp
how much does it weigh with the scales? Love the vision scales bty so great!
Got 1. Game changer.
Are these still for sale?
Yes, they are on my Etsy store.
Great video!! Thank you for sharing.
Hi Thank you for your good video, how long does this knife sharpener usually work? And after how long should it be replaced? Question 2: I do not have an electronic angle meter, and without using an electronic angle meter, how do we know what angle number to use for each type of knife, such as 15 degrees or 17 degrees or 20 degrees or 25 degrees or 30 degrees?
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by your first question. As for the angle gauge, it would be difficult to find the appropriate angle without one. I recommend getting one if you can,
@@Practical3DP Hi Thank you very much, my good friend, the meaning of the first question was, how long is the useful life of the diamond stones of this Work Sharp knife sharpener model?_
Do you not these any more
Yes, I still make them. They are on my Etsy store.
Fortunately, I had the opportunity to try a lot of different systems, from different manufacturers, but the difference between them is very big, especially because of the materials used. Unfortunately, absolutely all sharpening systems that contain plastic, plastic components or other flexible, elastic, soft materials also have a very large margin of error, regardless of how different and well attachments we put on it and regardless of what upgrades we make, we don't get anything more until we eliminate absolutely all plastic. For a perfect sharpening, only need a solid, rigid, well-anchored and balanced system, for a stable, well-centered angle, which will remain perfectly centered throughout the sharpening process. NOT plastic components that buckle, swing, move eccentrically in all directions, and especially that over time lose their parameters and tolerances becoming wide and unstable. Rather than buying a system like this that is so fragile, and upgrading it by investing in other components, it is better to buy from the beginning a better system as HAPSTONE RS which I think is the best and most stable system possible for its price, because is completely metal and very solid and well balanced, or a more budget system fom TSprof such as Blitz or Kadet which is also completely metal and very solid and well balanced, and much higher performing options, because on the Work Sharp systems, both Lite and even the Pro version, errors cannot be eliminated with any kind of upgrade, as long as the system still contains plastic. I own both systems and have done a lot of upgrades with metal components from HAPSTONE, Kak Britva, TSprof, with connectors, clamps, magnets, etc. but as long as the chassis, the support, is made of plastic, it remains fragile and unstable for ever
Hello, do you sell this on eBay?
How do I order one?
There are so many flaws with the Work Sharp system, they need to hire you to fix their problems. I did get so frustrated with this sharpener that I bought a TSPROF KO3 and it’s just about perfect, except for the cost.
I have TSProf blitz pro. I agree their products are so much better. I did design my own system but I haven’t got around to making it. I can’t do it cheaply enough. I don’t get the benefits of economy of scale like these companies.
@@Practical3DP How do I find your site to order from.

Hmm... the issue I see with that magnet setup is the centerline of the blade (spine to edge) isn't parallel with the angle gauge because of the hollow grind, so the actual grind angle is going to be steeper than what the gauge says. The OEM clamp would be more likely to hold it so those lines are parallel.
There are ways to compensate. You can use the front fence to make the blade parallel. Alternatively, you can subtract the angle of the primary bevel.
So whats the best way to reduce stiffness using your stone holder?
What exactly do you mean by stiffness?
Just to note, when measuring your sharpening angle, you should be zeroing your gauge on table top, not on blade as in video. If you zero on blade, you are subtracting the flat grind of blade from your angle and not sharpening to the angle you check on rod. Example: The flat of blade is ground at 5 degrees. You zero on blade and set your sharpening angle at 15 degrees. You really are putting a 20 degree edge on your blade.
Thank you for pointing that out. I forgot to mention that the fence on the front can be used to level a knife that has a flat grind. You can simply bring the blade up 5 degrees to take out the guess work. Although, I don't think your example tells the full story. First, lets zero the angle cube on either the attachment or the work table, as this should already be close to 0. Then set your angle with the cube to say 20 degrees. Now imagine a plane that goes from the center of the spine to the apex of the knife. This should also be 0 degrees and ideally what you base your angle off of. So if this said knife has a primary grind of 5 degrees, your center line is now tilted downwards by 5 degrees once you place the knife on the magnet. So really if your angle cube says 20 degrees, you should subtract 5 for a true sharpening angle of 15 degrees on relative to the knifes center line.
These upgrades work great! Been using them for a while now
Ez egy nagy baromság. Kék papír ,jelölgetés.Röhej az egész.
Apparently, he does NOT know about angles, establishment of angles and what are the factors in changing angles. Moving the edge, relative to the contact point of the the rod -- its contact point (in space) most definitely changes the angle of the stone relative to the blade cutting edge angle. Also, remember that the whole point of being able to rotate the entire knife through the push-button on the back of the stone/rod holder is one of the hallmarks of this Worksharp system.
I know that this is not a perfect replacement for the rotating mechanism. However, the stock clamp does not fit well on all types of pocket knives. That’s what this is for. It’s very possible to use this and get a sharp knife. Myself and many others have done it. It does take a little effort but after you know what your doing you can get repeatable results. You have to develop a technique depending on the blades. Also, I have updated the fence to make alignment easier.
Hi Seth. I bought your new version and I have a question about the angle meter. Do I still zero it on the base of the attachment or on the blade itself? If I place it on the blade and zero it, I run out of adjustment on the worm drive. The blade is beveled so it's not a flat surface. What do you recommend?
There are different mounting positions on the attachment. So you can raise or lower it on the arm. This allows for more angle range. Also you can use the front fence to tilt the blade upwards. This isn’t necessary though. For the angle. Since your blade has a big primary bevel that will attach to the magnet, follow this procedure. Zero on the attachment itself. Next place the gauge on the primary bevel on the knife. Take note of the angle. For this example, let’s say 10 degrees. Now, you want your knife to have a 15DPS edge bevel. Place the gauge on the sharpening rod. Adjust the WS so it says 25 degrees. You’re doing this to compensate for the primary bevel and will have a true edge bevel of 15DPS or 30 inclusive. If you have more questions please contact me on Etsy. That way I can show you illustrations.
@@Practical3DP Will do and thanks for the tips, makes perfect sense to do it that way.
You know I can appreciate all the ingenuity out there trying to make the Worksharp Precision Adjust more accurate. But at what point do you say you are polishing a turd? I was looking at this item myself because of the base price but after adding up all the upgrades to try and make it a decent sharpener you are at the price of a KME Sharpeners. I ended up going with the KME and calling it good. The magnet base your demonstrating looks somewhat sketchy safety wise. Its good your thinking outside the box though. I would say never give up but on the Worksharp I would say its time to tap out.
Do you know when these will be back in stock on the etsy or ebay store?
Thanks brother! I just got mine today gonna give it a try in a few minutes!
Love it. Subbed. I’ll definitely check out your store.
The design has had some slight updates. I have updated the top blade fence to make positioning and flipping the knife easier. Hopefully I will be able to make a new video soon.
So glad I found your video man. Your prices are excellent compared to some other stores that sell parts for the precision adjust. I’ll definitely order some Friday.
I just got the precision adjust. It works great. I love this magnet attachment. You sold me.
Can you give me the link to your esty store please.
Where do you zero the angle cube?
In most cases it’s probably best to zero on the blades primary bevel.
I have thicker knives such as the Ontario SP 8 . That are a .25 thick . Of course they won’t fit the work sharp clamp . My question is will this work for knives like the sp8?
I think a knife of that size is beyond the capabilities of the Worksharp PA in general. I’m not sure if there is enough stone throw to cover a 10” blade? I cannot say if it would work as I don’t have one like that to test. I designed this with EDC folding knives in mind. I think additional magnets would be required for a blade that size.
Fussy operation. Kidding yourself if you think magnetic maintains position nearly as well as clamp. What is the benefit again?
There exists plenty of blades that don’t fit well into the stock clamp due to their profile.
Looks great! Just order one.
Hi Seth I just received this holder and it looks like with longer screws I can mount scissors to the end...
You should def do more videos and I'm definitely interested in your products. Awesome job man
I think I will after Christmas.
Just visited your Etsy store,No more shipping to Canada?
Temporary. I don't ship international during the holidays. It's too much of a headache for me. I'm sorry.
@@Practical3DP all good thank you though.
What is the name of your company/Website and where do zi find it?
Practical3DP currently I’m on Etsy
Just got mine today : )
I hope it serves you well. Let me know if you have any questions.
@@Practical3DP will let you know .
Using the angle cube is just anal..............Anal doesn't make the knife any sharper or functional. A knife is nothing more than a very simple tool. But I guess it might make an interesting RUclips video
Anyone try this with small fillet knives? And or the smaller Opinels? #6, 7, 8
Love love love the magnet idea imma get one of those asap
Can you send me a link for good 4 " stones to fit your parts for worksharp adjust
What sharpening stones do you use? still fairly new to this and just got my precision adjust but want to get your upgrades and some really good stones so I can get some mirror edges (I know, not really practical but it’s what I want)
If u want a cheaper mirror edge i suggest buying 3m lapping film after u use ur ceramic ull get an incredible finish and there cheap and stick on ur ceramic stone
Is the magnetic holder available on your Etsy store? I visited the pager and it is not listed….
Sold out yesterday. Will restock next week.
They are no longer on your site. Are you going to continue to make these?
Yes. I’m out of stock. Takes me a while to get them back in stock because I also have a full time job.
....I prefer to use the clamp, and made the head support from the garden hose pipe attachment.
If you do not see them on my store, they are out of stock. Restocked weekly.
Sold out again? Looks like I missed out. Hopefully more back in stock soon.
@@localresident996 They sell out quickly. Will restock soon.
@@Practical3DP I am also looking to purchase one. Following your Etsy store. Thanks!
Are those plates you have installed the DMT 4" diamond stones ? I just bought a set for your holder coming this week and I took a lot of scrolling to find the right ones.
@@haveagocommentator983 those will work just fine
I want to buy to but i cant find the magnetic holder
Don't see this in your store
Good accessory . This kinda crap is what happens when a company puts a product too fast with it actually testing and making g adjustments . The precisaion by itself is a pile of shot without the upgrades and after getting by all that a person might as well spend a $150 on something decent or even better a rubicon pro . That’s how I feel . Worksharp didn’t even sell the extra 3 sided stones Is all people really want and a more solid design.
Yes. I agree that if you can budget a better system all at once that is the best route to go. Otherwise, adding stuff here and there works as well.
@@Practical3DP most defintely . Sorry I was upset from the heat . The worksharp system works great with the aftermarket products and the magnet holder is awesome . What’s the best aftermarket stones ? Or decent affordable ones . Thanks .
@@Hungrybird474 no worries. I prefer Venev cerebus dog series. You get a set of 3 for around $80. They are double sided so you have 6 grits. A grit for re-profiling, all the way to a polished edge. Also they pretty much last forever as you can maintain them.
If the shipping to Canada wasn't the same amount as the items, you'd have another sale.
If you message me I can do cheaper shipping to Canada. It’s still anywhere from $12-$20 though. That’s first class international. Still expensive. The price is the price though. I don’t set it and nothing I can do about it. I had to remove the option for buyers to select because the cheaper shipping is unreliable to some counties. It was either taking forever or becoming lost. Especially to Germany for some reason. Etsy does not have seller protection right now so I was taking a lot of losses on the item and having to reimburse shipping charge.
@@Practical3DP Good to know. It was charging about $25-30CAD each for the two items I'm interested in (Magnet holder and the arm support) an shipping was $54CAD. I know a couple of guys with 3D printers, so even the files would be worth a few bucks for me to spend.
Great job on a well thought out design. I've got the Presicion Adjust and am looking into your magnetic holder to hold on to my whittling knives, which have a really small blade, that is just impossible to grip with the standard clamp. (www.flexcut.com/assets/ProductImages/JKN91-out.png) would your clamp be able to hold onto a small straight edge blade like that? By exchanging the stone for a rod, It should also be possible to sharpen the curved blade....
I find that depending on how the blade is shaped, the limitation is around 0.5”. Measuring from spine to blade apex. If you were to try it and it does not work with your knives, I’ll gladly process a return.
@@Practical3DP Thanks for the swift reply. I'll consider it, especially since I see a lot of options for customizing the two adjustable fences. shipping to europe is a bit pricey though, have you considered licensing your 3D design and letting people print their own ?
Wouldn’t the adjustable stop work better with the longer straight edge butting up against the top of the knife ?
I absolutely love both of your inventions for the sharpening system. Im gonna buy both of them next week 100 percent for sure. I will let you know when I get them and how much I love them cause I know I will. Thank you very much.
Thank you for your support! Feel free to contact on here or Etsy if you have any questions.
This is awesome I'm so glad I found out about you subbing now
