And how do you sharpen a knife with a point? A pocket knife? A pearing knife? A karambit? This is a n nice idea, but has a long way to go before u can sharpen "any knife"
@tipsintelligent2605 for us? For us what? What the hell does that answer mean? Am I just not smart enough to understand what u mean? Does It only work for you and no one else? 🤔 Well, that's kinda messed up don't you think? You're not racist are you? Lol
A truly sharp knife possesses only three surfaces, while a dull knife exhibits four. The sharpening process effectively restores the blade to its optimal state of three surfaces. I must commend the sharpening system you employ, as it appears to be quite effective, albeit somewhat laborious. In contrast, my own sharpening technique utilizes stationary honing surfaces in conjunction with a movable blade. Even the dullest knife can be revitalized by commencing with a 250-grit diamond plate to establish the desired edge profile. Subsequently, four additional diamond plates are employed (in order), followed by a flat of compound impregnated leather (50,000 grit), and a flat of plain leather. This rigorous process culminates in knives that exhibit exceptional sharpness, requiring minimal effort to slice. Furthermore, the sharpening angle is remarkably straightforward to master. 🙃

@@DrewJacobson61 The servers are back online. How old is dirt? The concept of dirt's age is multifaceted and encompasses various considerations. Recently formed soil, commonly referred to as dirt, originates from the composting of organic matter, a technique frequently employed by horticulturists to enhance soil quality.

Good idea . I may take this design and put my own spin on it for some of my irregular blades that dont fit my sharpner jig clamps . Thanks for this :-)
I just bought a lawnmower blade sharpener, one of the diamond sharpeners, and eyeball the angle. Medium pressure on both sides with a light pressure to remove the edge burr as a final pass. It's quick, and with repeated use the knife retains the angle of the sharpening grooves on the cutting edge. If further honing is required, a ceramic rod or the underside of a ceramic coffee mug will do the trick. The unglazed ring on the base of the coffee mug is equivalent to a ceramic rod. And, as pretty much everyone has some, is cheaper than buying a ceramic rod.
@@alanrobinson4318 yeah, the one we had at the shop used sandpaper about a inch wide. Lay your lawn mower blade down and only 3 swipes on each side and you're done. Lot better than the other way of using a hand grinder
I don’t get all the hate and trash talk here 😂 this is a pretty creative diy for folks that can’t free hand! And definitely cheaper than other pre-made rigs. Would take a little time to make it but looks like it works well!
Wonder what the Angle measurement is he took off the block of wood to fasten the hinges to hold the knife in place? Also , the angle of the side hinges for the pvc roller? Will this tool work on any size and shape of knife?
So this is a great DIY sharpener and I do respect that. However since there are multiple different angles for different knives. I would make a slot instead of a single hole. Where it would be adjustable to different angles. Also with the clamp/hinges on top. Maybe a little better to get something smooth and grips. Maybe something nylon. Like soft grips for a vice. Just so the blade isn’t getting scratches. My Benchmade for example has a coating on the blade. Just some feedback to make it a little better.
I love watching these videos. Not because I get anything useful out of them. Because it's funny to see what these people come up with. Btw, I can sharpen most knives in under a minute
This is an easy and relatively inexpensive method using regularly available hardware store items and would seem to work for most fixed angle sharpening needs. It's probably better than removing too much metal using a basic pull through Sharpener.
Bro, this is great for someone that only needs to keep one or two knives sharp, I would think tweaking those screws would allow for some width adjustment too. I personally don’t need something like this but I know quite a few that would be very happy with such a cheap set up.
I think it’s an excellent video. People are complaining when you don’t have much resources and some nations you do what you Gotta do to get that thing sharpened. Excellent video man excellent video.
My technique is a little different. I gather all the blades I need sharpened and organize them by size. Then I drive them to a shop at Main and 17th, and drink coffee while a nice old guy sharps the blades.
Awesome. This is cheaper and more fun than a spyder sharpen system and I’ll use it for axe heads or big yard knives. A pinched blade and two oppositely mounted sticks of sharpening material is still supreme. This is still great and will always work
30 seconds knife. A minute if it is extremely dull. That's how long it takes me to sharpen freehand. So I can sharpen between 8 and 16 knives within this 8 minute video😂
So you need 3 hinges? A block of wood, a stick, a tube... handful of screws... and THEN the whetstone? My gpa could spit on the whetstone and have it sharp in 20-30sec. It takes me 1-2min
Way too much background noise. I listened for about 10 minutes. Then I just cut it off. Come back a little later and lift this comment.Please cut down on the background.Noise the next video you put out
@@shikutoai belt sanders are literally used when making knives. As long as you don't get the edge hit enough to ruin the heat treat you won't have any issues.
Sorry but this is not the fastest. I will keep my select tool knife sharpener. It sharpens any knife, scissors or any blade quicker and better then your method
Buy a wet stone get your butter knife and practice by making it sharp....it's gonna take time, but if you do it you will hopefully learned how to use a wet stone.

Finally ! someone else who uses a wetstone by hand and hones on a coffee mug!!!! 5 minutes and blades are like razors, this video took way too long.
Freehand sharpening is the fastest way.
About as fast as a week in jail 😂
So I have to build one of these contraptions for every sized knife I have!!!!

whats the green stuff
Hey look you can REINVENT sliced bread ! Maybe next video the wheel ???
Some of us have the ability to hold the correct angle and get razor-sharp knives. This contraption only works on a knife like the one in the video.

Yup. Definitely the fastest.
wow that is sharp!
if you can build this you have enough dexterity to sharpen by hand 😉
No way to adjust for different width knife

Got tired of making jigs that did nothing. Got a 3 grit diamond system. Haven’t looked back.
ok man
@@tipsintelligent2605 nothing personal,
Has to be the slowest possible method. Interesting though
By the time ya done all that i had my knife sharp enough to shave with
Jeez, how long is this quick method going to take? 😂
thanks 5m
I think it’s an excellent video. People are complaining when you don’t have much resources and some nations you do what you Gotta do to get that thing sharpened. Excellent video man excellent video.

Why don’t you just use a whetstone? Sooo much easier.
okay

Thank you ! I don't have such conditions
Could you use the knife to trim your pinky finger nail. Please.
noooo
Initially you tested on your hand before sharpening, but you didn't test on your hand again after sharpening
noooo
I really don't think that the world " Intelligent" should be part of your channel name...
okay
I went the store to buy all this stuff to make this, luckily the store sold a knife sharpener.
Nice piece of teak
Thanks man
Very nice. 👍
Learning to use whet stones is faster than that.
This would be a great way put a stress fracture in your blade while flattening the apex
Nice, but only works for that exact size blade.
Fast?
Inventive. Maybe I may try something similar for self satisfaction. But honestly, what for?!
ok man
When I want to test how blunt a knife is I test it on my wrist or neck, it's more accurate that way.
Nice work, very inventive 👍

Or you know, since you have a whetstone right there, use it?
if only they used the same "test material" from the beginning at the end. LOL
sorry
Good design.
Not bad for a hack job
thanks bro
Titles can be so misleading!!
sorryy
This is a very good video! These clowns that say they are shapened free hand are crazy, mind you this woulden work on curved edge blade.

Something tells me this isn’t the fastest way😅
Noio
I’m pretty sure that’s not the ‘fastest’ way.
ok
Absolutely NOT the fastest way to sharpen a blade.

As he ruins his stone on the brass hinge... : /
good ideas, very sloppy and cumbersome execution. a good sharpening jig can be helpful, but you're better off using freehand than this thing
nooo
Why not just freehand like old fashioned
okay

Fastes way??
I wouldn’t say the first knife is the fastest
Cheapest way possibly (or on a budget) but not fastest way...
"Fastest"😊
Or buy a knife sharpener.
@@tersan8547 I've gone thru all the scrap lumber I have trying to draw a straight line like shown
