- Опубликовано: 24 июл 2023
- With Work Sharps Brand New Professional Precision Adjust, I decided to compare it to all of my sharpeners, and demonstrate it knife sharpening. In this video you'll find overviews of my strops, the Smith's pocket pal, The TSProf Kadet, and the original Precision Adjust Elite. I hope this guide explains the differences, the drawbacks, the abilities, and helps you decide which system is right for you. The sharpeners are available multiple places below.

It's been a rough day here at AKB studios. An audio issue that I could not hear, and half of my viewers could not hear- drove the other half crazy. I tried replicating it with youtube, in my editing timeline, on my phone, with headphones- bluetooth and wired... and couldn't hear the problem. But a few listeners said it might be a stereo phase cancellation. So I set my timeline main camera track to mono in editing and that seems to have corrected it. I have recorded this way before in several videos and have had no prior complaints. Maybe more people are listening on noise cancelling headphones now and some are thrown for a loop when there's barely audible anomalies in recording? Anyway I think I've had enough people help me with testing this revised audio and I really appreciate it. In the future when I record with a stereo mic into the camera I will avoid this cropping up again by setting it to mono in post. Not that you need to know this. But anyway I appreciate all the time, and even that one person who unsubscribed because I got snippy with him and called him a troll.
thanks buddy
hey dude, I'm one of the ones who commented about stereo fuckerey. Its fixed on this one, I'm listening on speakers and checked back and forth against known audio before I commented. I can go back and check other videos if you'd like I don't always watch every one that comes out. It sounded like either one voice channel was out of phase or it was recorded on a "stereo" mic and then got panned hard left and right which made it sound super weird. I think it may have been unnoticeable if I was wearing headphones but I didn't check that.
Personal recommendation: check your stereo mic with speakers and then check how it sounds when left and right channels are not hard panned L/R. If its a proper stereo mic then do a few tests of moving around in space and check them on studio monitors? Overall i'd recommend just running mono voice tracks and letting the rest be stereo. Are you still doing stagehand work? I'm one out in nyc and I originally subscribed because I thought you had a similar use case for your tools to mine. Just fucked up a pm3 edge on some red carpet :)
I appreciate all that, but I fully test all my videos play them back on multiple devices before ever uploading them. It was a one off thing- and no it wasn’t a pan in davinci. I’ve used the mic on several videos… and again half the people weren’t experiencing it. It was a one off thing and you’ll see in the comment above that i said I’d be making sure to stick with mono when using this stereo mic. Anyway thanks, no I don’t do stage hand work any more. I did editing, AV, camera up, lighting for neatly 20 years but I’ve moved on to something that pays the bills.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro I pay the bills as a hand, but I'm union in NYC& don't have a life :) sounds like you're doing it right. Weird that that video had the issues. Keep on killing it out there
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Never giving up is one of the AKB spirits I'm here for!
If I could "like" twice I would willingly do so. Protect this bro at all costs.
AKB doing great representing us 40+ married Dad types with a knife/watch/sword/plate armor penchant. Our children will never want for cutting implements or telling time.
Right here with you buddy, and our kids will out grill other dads on the block before they graduate highschool. My kids are a bit young for knives, but they are already asking what their first knife will be. Counting the days until they're old enough.
@@craigrj232323 got my first Camilus Boy Scout folder at 8. Kids grow up quick these days. I say, machete at 6 is totally safe! 😎
Now I'm legally obligated to watch it a third time! Hooray!
YES!!!!
I’m here for the ennui and fatalism. Also the gallows humor. Keep slugging, AKB - we need you.
Love your videos dude. Never stop ❤
Thanks for doing this, Mr. AdvancedKnifeBro. Your service to the community is invaluable..
Hope that was as fun for you as it was for us. Glad it went so smoothly for you with no issues whatsoever. 😅
I had to subscribe because it is so refreshing to watch an American who is downbeat and making videos that aren’t so annoyingly polished and shiny.
First video. The dark humor and disdain for sharpening made me a subscriber. Thanks for your work.
It doesn’t matter how big they make those money grab worksharps, that clamp is always going to keep you from doing thicker blades. I do really enjoy your videos.
Thank you for re-uploading it, now I can hear your angelic voice
I would just like you to know, that I was listening to this as I was showing and my wife had to use the sink in the bathroom so she listened to probably a good ten minutes of this video.
After talking to her after, she described you as "the worst man I have ever heard speak"
So
Do with that what you will.
I thought it was great.
Gonna ease out my collar with a finger, “my wife would agree”
I just found this channel today. I'm pretty sure its the best thing that's ever happened to me . 😐..like ever.
I made it to the end. Finally it works 👍👍👍
That was a long haul. Thank you sir!
Ahh the frustration and disillusionment, love it! Guys stropping back their 'dull' blades, I suspect their definition of dull is slightly different. 'Yeah, it JUST stopped whittling hair, dull as a doorknob!' The musings on various how-to videos is relatable as well. Feels like some of them either forget what it's like to be a beginner, or omit some crucial bit of info that's extra important for the folk who'll be hitting a roadblock with the process.
Seein' AKB fiddling around with that cane machete... lemme just say if you have the space and folks around you won't mind the noise, absolutely invest in an inexpensive belt grinder for your big beater blades. Takes so much tedium out of it, even just using a coarse belt to change the angle of the edge.
Absolutely enjoy your content.
I appreciate that!
Reading you loud and clear now! Now to enjoy your sharpening special.
Thank you!!!
Junked bevels learning to sharpen with rods on an angle. Got really good at it over the last 20 years. Having options on sharpening really helps out with different blade types. Recently i started buying knives that have a useful sharpening choil, flats with a defined stop so i can use a knife sharpening system. Its funny how many blade designs take neither of those things into account.
Keep the longterm content coming bro👊
I love your style and candor. You got a new subscriber now
This videos is hands down brilliant & very informative believe it or not, thanx for the video & helping further in my ongoing streak of not buying crap ass worksharp sharpeners, u may be advanced knife bro, but I'm, green thumb w/ a band aid on it.
I need to buy a work sharp ASAP! Great video AKB!
That Sir, was incredible! I have yet to find a sense of humor that surpasses yours. Its in a category of its own. So if you'd like to give it a name, then I'll scream it from a very high open window. Much like my favorite movie, "The Neverending Story."
The worst thing about buying a good knife sharpener is running out of knives to sharpen. 😂
I use a KME and i love it.
That’s a good one… basically anything that does the job of keeping the angle consistent. Then some systems accommodate different blades better than others. And that’s probably how you want to make your decision.
Thanks for the video!
Thank you for watching!
I enjoy sharpening on the OG precision sharpener and am looking forward to getting a new upgraded system..still debating on the PRO or perhaps something else. Thanks for posting.
Alrighty then. I have to say this was the most unconventional knife sharpening video I've watched from cussing ur Alexa to fumbling through and half explaining the knife sharpening setups . I have to say U had my attention all the way thru th whole Damn Thang Hehe. No long drawn out detailed geometry lessons on metallurgy and exact science of leading edge versus trailing edge. I just relaxed n laughed along. Thank U for this video. Oh n that dish U found in ur bag could be for the sushi dipping sauce from thinly slicing fish with ur new sharpened knife. Lol. Keep em coming
Very witty. I am looking forward to the Worksharp because I have the belt-grinder one. A bit rough. I do like your tempo and dry humor. Thank you. I listen to you in fast speed, because you speak too slowly for me to justify watching for a long time. The ceramic Sharps pull sharpener I use for a touch-up.
Yeah I wouldn’t have time to watch the whole thing either. I know it asks a lot of the viewers! Thanks man!
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Can you speak a little more Cali? Faster, but without the Marxist.
My problem with the clamping systems (i bought a Lansky one years ago) has always been, that i never managed to clamp full flat grinds symmetrically concerning the angle. It always tilted to one side and thus the angles on each side didn't match.
And with teh first sabre gind long bladed knife i shaprened with it, i discovered that the grind angle with the clamping systems does change along the blade as long as the blade isn't completely straight but has a curve (like most knives have towards the tip). And the angle change depends and changes with where you clamp the knife. So with longer kitchen knives for example, it becomes important to clamp the knife at the same spot each time. (i clamped that knife closer to the handle, and so while most of the edge had around 20°, at the tip it was more like 12-15°!)
And i am way to lazy to measure, record and look that data up next time i have to sharpen a kitchen knife. (during that set up time i have sharpened the knife already with other methods)
The next thing i tried was the Spyderco Sharpmaker. And while it does work, i seem to need way longer and more strokes with that stuff than anyone else on the interwebs.
Even though i bought the diamond rods additionally to make it faster.
(I have used the diamond rods for 50 minutes on a knife and it didn't get sharp. because the rods didn't remove much material. The angle was fine though. And the little paper they put into the package said to not use much force or the glue of the "diamond" particles gives up...).
So in the end i went back to what i did since childhood and use freehand sharpening. Just because i am faster with it and need fewer things to prepare.
(And i don't think anyone who isn't able to do freehand sharpening is _insert favorite insult here_ because different people have different talents, and have spent different amounts of time to practice different things.
I practiced since my childhood, and that's basically almost 30 years of practice. Eventually anyone is able to do it ;-) )
I have the same diamond block you got in the video in the beginning, and i use that when the blade is really dull or has breakouts. Otherwise i have a combined 1k and 3k stone and that is pretty much enough for everything in my use case.
(I bought an 8k grit stone once, but that's really unnecessary for my uses unless maybe for optics)
Useless fact: i have sharpened an old axe with a metal file (the edge was completely destroyed as someone used it to hack off roots that weren't copmletely cleaned of rocks before hacking, so it was either power tools or a file, and the result with the file was decent and it was way more quiet).
But years before that, i have spend 2 afternoons per week for 6 months at the age of 14 learning to use a file and getting marks for the results in engineering school.
All that said, i do find the contraptions manufacturer come up with absolutely interesting!
Sweet! You got your voice fixed.
It sounded bad to you before and now it sounds good? Sound coming out of both speakers?
I own a work sharp adjust pro, great sharpening system. You can now buy aftermarket stone holders so you can also now use your favourite stones
It's about time you got off your lazy duff and did a hardcore, down-n-dirty video about what's up with knife sharpening! lol Keep up the good work, bro. 😉
Yes!! And hopefully the sound is good now
I don’t know if it make sense, but after watching this I FEEL sharper.
Yes!!!!
Fun video. Damn Alexa, such a saucy minx.
Years ago I bought a Wicked Sharp system.(Cooked for years after culinary school) It's such a PITA to use. I bought the attachment to do smaller knives. PITA still.
Mainly I'd just pull the stones out and sharpen by hand. I know, I'm an idiot. I should donate the thing to a local charity.
Recently I bought the WS Pro Precision system. I haven't taken it out of the box. But I bought a bunch of knives and machetes with the plan to stick to that system... I'll probably cave and just use the lil WS Field Sharpener that I used at work (In produce because cooking jobs suck and I could make more with better benefits working produce at a supermarket.) for years... because I'm an idiot.
Product idea for us pull through fans, someone make a really good one. Can't be that hard, you guys put a man on the moon and that sounds way harder than making a really good pull through....
Bro. Yer the best knife Bro on yt. Yer a little dumb but so am I !!!
Kep up the gud work 🤠
Sound is so much better! No wonder it sounded out of phase, it actually was a phase issue with the audio.
The Precision Adjust Pro is so much better and solves a lot of issues from the original (primarily I couldn't sharpen my small slipjoints on it) but I just can't justify the $300 when I use my knives so rarely anyway.
Yeah the few people who said phase issues or mono or stereo got me thinking. It’s gotta be phase issues canceling stuff out or making it sound weird on certain devices. Are those devices overcompensating, not compensating when others are- who knows. From now on… if I use that stereo lavalier, I will change it to mono on the camera track.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Mono is like the png of jpeg.
Maybe you will enjoy the Fällkniven CC4 as much as I do then, @zerobladehonmono.
Dry humor was the best
Success! I can hear this on either my phone or my Bluetooth speaker
Thank you!!!!! It all sounds normal to you now?
@@AdvancedKnifeBro well...as normal as you're likely to sound 😂
@@williamlenderman387 fair enough!!!!
My mono-speaker on my laptop also put out the full sound now!
In the day of expensive complex sharpening systems, there’s something to be said for the simplicity of a system like the spyderco sharpmaker or furthermore just a benchstone. Depending on how nitpicky I’m feeling and how expensive the knife is really determines what kind of sharpening I do on a knife. There’s always a point around halfway into sharpening a knife where I have the thought of “why did I even start this”.
Watching again to see what I missed.
Thank you!!!
So many of the systems you displayed function like the Lansky system I couldn't get to work. Five different grits and the same push or pull process. I spent hours on several knives and failed. I lent it to my son-in-law and he wasn't able to sharpen a knife either. I used the table clamp and the stand plus I replaced that oversized sized red screw which prevented sharpening at a lower angle. I have better luck with the $4 pull through. That Ken Onion belt sander looks like a good possibility. Thanks for the dry wit video and injury to make me feel normal!
$4 pull throughs have rarely ever done anything for me. I don’t like them and I’ve had them screw up blades. Belt sanders scare me as I’m afraid I’ll look away for a few seconds and take way too much off… and I’m always worried about them heating up a blade too much. That doesn’t mean my fears are valid… but I’ve taken off too much material with the worksharps when I wasn’t paying attention once. They get them pretty sharp for me. I don’t have the patience to split hairs, but push cut through papers is fine for me
As someone who almost always failed on the Lansky system(and then almost circumcised my arm on the one knife I didnt fail on), my problem with the Lansky boiled down to sharpening at the wrong angle and not realizing how long you need to go for with the course stone when you begin at a different angle than the knife was originally. Reprofiling with a standard Lansky set takes an era and a half unless the knife is in a uselessly soft steel. Going from a 20 degree edge to a 17 degree edge takes about a week and a half on a decent modern steel. For me the TSprof clone has been the savior(same quality and half the price), but it took a lot of trial and error getting some sharp edges that looked bad. In the end it is just beautiful with a good selection of diamond stones and strops.
Wooooo sharpen dem knives boyah!
OHHHH YEAAHHHHHHH
I had no sound issues, I appreciate your guide don’t think that I’ve seen another knife bro acknowledge that stropping will dull your knife if you do it wrong, or demonstrate correct technique.
you are also correct on angled systems being a pain in the ass, I learned to do freehand touch ups because they are such a pain.
The angled systems are made for inpatient inconsistent sharpeners like myself… however the patience also comes into play when cranking knobs and setting angles. I just don’t enjoy sharpening like some people do. However the systems hold the blade if you are unable to.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro For me sharpening is mostly a pain in the ass, I like worksharp’s guided freehand systems as they pivot and follow the knife blade. I use a DMT diafold fine / Xfine instead of a stone for my freehand needs.
Been eyeing that spyderco sharpmaker, though looks like a fast and easy way touch up.
Thanks so much for my review of my Center clamp adapter for the TS Pro Kadet, and K03 sharpening systems. Links to where it can be purchased are in the description of the video, and I am happy to answer any questions anyone would have on it!
Back on track bro 👍
You came here from the link right?
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Yeah arrived from the link. It says course; it says fine; it says China 😂👍
So yesterday it sounded bad for you … and today on the same setup the audio is normal right?
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Yup that's right bro.
I appreciate all your time. Thank you!!
The Arkansas shout out with the humor got me to hit the subscribe button
Great video.. I am new to sharpening and just got a Work Sharp system, but am scared to try it..
Do it!
38:35 including 38:40 is one of my mantras in life. 🙏
When Alexa turns sentient one day...run.
Hi I just sat thru and watched this complete video and I was hoping that your technique with the away from the edge strokes was going to leave you with a laser beam edge. So zit didn’t not even after striping it I’m no pro but I just learned how to get the sickest edges on my Kadett. You have it down partially. Your technique on developing a burr is the same as mine. Instead of doing only away from the edge strokes which I do when I flip the knife to flip the burr. Then do some into the edge strokes 8 of them make sure you are going heal to tip at 1st. Once you have completed 1 cycle with the same stone now do 5 into the blade stroke from tip to heal then 5 heal to tip flip & do the other side. Switch stones and start over until you reach the grit you want to stop at. Good luck let me know how it works for you.
Lots of good information in this video. What are your thoughts on the wicked edge system? Is it worth the extra money?
I think the wicked edge is great. Most of these systems here are great- it’s just getting used to the quirks of each. I have heard nothing but good things about the wicked edge.
I actually do collect lead. I collect wheel weights and melt the down into ingots that I use later on for casting bullets for reloading or fishing weights :) I probably have a few hundred pounds more than I need in lead sitting in my garage.
Well done whippersnapper
Thank you so much needed this… bro did you brush your hair and glass of…water????😳
Been seriously thinking about pulling the trigger on some type of sharpening system but have yet to do it (I'm poor with a bunch of kids 😂) I've gotten pretty good at freehand sharpening after a LOT of practice but still may get one at some point. Which one would you personally recommend? Love your cheesy humor lol. You remind me of me
Check out the little lansky pull through. They have 3 or 4 different ones but all of em have 4 different angles on each one.
I’ve had too many pull throughs screw up and fail to sharpen any blade. These systems are pretty good for me.
Espada ❤.. I want it
Boy when I was your age, I could sharpen two Katanas at the same time..😂
Love the video. I’m confused on one thing with these clamp sharpening systems. Doesn’t the height of the blade change the angle of the sharpener? Like, won’t setting it to 20° for a Case knife, and setting it to 20° for a machete with 2” of blade height give you two completely different angles? Also for longer blades, won’t the angle change the closer to the handle and tip you get vs the center? Or is my brain not functioning correctly? (That’s entirely possible.) Thanks and keep ‘em comin!
Isn’t that why you set your angle for each knife?
@@AdvancedKnifeBro that makes sense. It just seems like, if you set it for 20°, it won’t result in a 20° angle for both of those examples. Because the arm has to reach out further for taller blades. Maybe it’s too small a difference to matter, was just curious.
😂👊🍻🍻💥solid vid my man -
i think i'm gonna go with a wen 6515T and the leatherbeltman angel guides .
Have you found anything that would work well with shears or pruners with a convex blade
I use a sharp maker rod on my lawn tools and free hand it. I would probably think a sharpener with a motor would work best on those or a grinder. It’s slow going but you kind of have to feel for the edge. On thinner edges like my Kukris it’s easy but on old thick ass garden shears it sucks
Get it
Is there no brace to stop the holder and knife from moving when you're sharpening?
There is, I address this later in the video
But how do these systems hold up to batoning?
Ver gud
"Murder Porn Weapons" LMFAO I'm dead.
😂. Arkansas is known for its stones and barber shops.
Bluetooth and laptop both work.
Thank you!!!
I think we went to the same school, I copy a content creator that takes them 30 minutes to do. Then I do it in 6 hours. 😂
👍
Aside from not knowing the angle of pull-through sharpeners, they don't really sharpen. They tear away at the edge and create a ridiculous burr that might feel sharp to the touch, but that "edge" will be gone in seconds, once the burr gets knocked off and then it'll be dull as hell all over again. I could maybe understand using a pull-through in the field in certain circumstances to quickly give yourself a little bit more refined working edge but only using the fine ceramic. I'd never ever, in any circumstances, want to use the coarse carbide side for anything but to deliberately destroy an edge. For like $30-35ish you can get a WorkSharp Guided Field Sharpener with diamond plates, ceramic honing rods, and even a strop, all with angle guides. Makes it super easy, as long as you understand edge angles.
I didn’t go into depth- but I have been burned by pull throughs. Some don’t sharpen the right parts, others really gouge and scratch the shit out of your blade… they’re really only good for old lawn tools and not any knife you’d use as a carry or in the kitchen.
Whats a good angle to use on this sharpner for a survival knife.
20 is my go to. But there may be some better opinions online
@@AdvancedKnifeBro thanks
@@AdvancedKnifeBro Quick question I'm new to knife sharpning and I'm wondering if I wanted a 20 degree knife would I do 10 degree per side of 20 degree per side?
With the exception of the spyderco sharpmaker all the other systems here show degree per side or the normal way. So 20 degrees is 20 degrees. Spyderco sharpmaker has 2 main settings 30 degrees (or 15 per side) or 40 degrees (or 20 per side). Spyderco sharpmaker is the odd one out, and not the standard way that people talk about sharpening edges
@@AdvancedKnifeBro ahh that's interesting thank you 😊
Why do you work up and down instead of Across the blade from one end to the other in Even Strokes ?
Seems to me like the edge would be uneven.
Thanks! I like the Reality of the Video, not polished bs
Glad you liked it!
Advanced Sharpening Bro?
I saw a close up view of a pull through sharpener at work and I will never use one of those on my knives again.
If you got a horn handle you can scrape off some shavings and put it on a cut that annoys you via bleeding. You can also file down your nails and use that dust, it's also horn. It has sort of a cauterizing effect, I forgot the other word (obviously it doesn't burn you).
Just though I put that in here, it helped me sort of closing a fresh cut, and it also helps that annoying burn from your nerve ends laying open to the air (which is what causes those paper cut burns that are very annoying). And I hope my weird German sentences are not too incomprehensive.
I think the word you're looking for is a coagulate.
@@Knivess0 Yes, thank you, that's the word!
Clot, clotting, clotted

Thanks dude!!
Notes:
1. I hate outtakes; however, I hate the over-edited RUclips bullshit even more. I really enjoyed the honest-to-goodness shitshow of a minimally-edited video. Discourse particles exist for a reason.
2. Hand sharpen woodworking tools. Use Shapton water stones. If you have to flatten the backs of chisels, get the Shapton 120 water stone and let a slurry build up. Only idiots use diamond stones for woodworking tools.
3. Hand sharpening knives is pretty easy. I'm not a pro. I'm not anything. I've failed at pretty much everything that a person can fail at. Literally everything you need to know about hand sharpening knives you can learn watching a few-second montage of Martin from DBK sharpening knives. 95% of sharpening is choosing good stones. See #2 above. That said...
4. I bought a Work Sharp Precision Adjust and it does a good job. It's a colossal pain in the ass. It takes forever. But it's just nice to have a consistent edge without having to worry about it.
5. This will piss some people off, *but the truth about pull-through sharpeners is that they just fucking work.* You got a knife that won't cut warm brie? A pull-through sharpener will make it sharp enough to cut held phone-book paper. It's just a fact. Anybody who can't achieve that are the same type of people who blame their golf clubs for their shitty game. Pull-through sharpeners work. There's no shame in using something that just fucking works.
There are probably a lot of people who are put off owning pocket knives because of sharpening. I've test cut pool noodles with a saber sharpened with a single-stage carbide pull-through sharpener. They're easy, they're beginner friendly, and they work.
I hate RUclips you know?
Even with those pull through sharpeners there are good and bad ones.
And i think most knife people despise them because most of the pull through sharpeners remove a lot of material in not the most consistent way and thus the edge looks "not nice". (sometimes even a little like a microserrated edge) Two things knife people aren't fond of.
About the freehand sharpening, i think different people have different talents. Some need more practice for freehand sharpening and some need less. But i think anyone can get the hang of it with enough practice.
Agree on all your points.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro You make great videos. That gets lost when I get rambling, I think. My apologies for that.
Sorry man, the audio is fixed but now i can’t see the video at all, it just shows a smooth piece of glassy plastic with a little apple on it and oh never mind I’m holding my phone backwards carry on
10:32 Montsprofity!
Mono-speaker has full audio!
This is fucking hilarious.
You ever use a Harbor Frieght 1×30 belt sander? About a minute then you can take a nap or go do something interesting. I hope life gets better for you.
I avoid belt sanders because they take off too much material if you’re not careful. Just not the method I prefer. Worksharp also makes belt sander sharpeners as well- just not super interested, since they generate heat and remove material much more quickly.
Audio is fixed!
Yes!!!!! Thanks for standing by. Sorry for the bad uploads- viewers helped me fix what I couldn’t hear.
Not a fan of the accusharp?
That video was just swell. I have some knives.
You are more funny at 1.5x speed
My brain hurts. I'll just buy a new knife each month.
420! Blaze it!
I used tons of 420 bladed knives in my youth, but I had broken, lost or had them stolen. So I will get another 420 knife simply for the novelty of it! And I might laser engrave it with a good ole 'blaze it'.
I use the Work Sharp Ken Onion, primarily because sharpening is tedious, abd its pretty much idiot proof.
advanced knife dude, stop reviewing super expensive knifes! Do more reviews for us common folk
Sharpening is like acid you have to go into with a good attitude.
Team wicked edge here. 👎🏻 for no representation. Sike. 💣🎉❤️
Jebus that work sharp flexes when you sharpen. Almost looks like you are getting a convex no matter what you do.
Edit: Now saw you put the support in and the flex reduced.
That’s the problem when I do these unscripted.
Alexa , sharpen my knife...Nope.
So we spent half an hour watching your vid and your like fuckit i cant be bothered finishing the sharpening properly, so im now non the wiser whether to buy the work sharp or not... cmon man make an effort😊
