I didn't realize there were so many experts in the comment section here, wow!
Good video man, keep up the good work.
Thank you
Nice video! It would be much easier and safer to sharpen your knives by having the wheels turning away from you, not towards you. That way, you get better control of the angle at the top of the wheel. For better precision, a "Tormek" type railing system used with a dedicated knife jig can be mounted at the front of the bench grinder. Extra cost obviously, but the difference is noticeable if you want perfect knife edges. Also advisable to wear a face mask. Metal & paste particules are not compatible with lungs.
Thanks for the comment and advice Geoff.
Yes you are right I have the same wheels and was sharping a bench made and it jerked it from my hands and broken it in half it could've been worse
Great video, try hitting each edge twice in the same direction before turning your knife around to get the other side at least until you get your bur, it keeps you from flipping your knife around so many times. Great system as i have used it for years, my only slight problem is getting my fillet knifes so razor sharp is that when i am filleting a crappy i sometimes cut right through the backbone because my knife is so sharp at least on the first side of the crappy because the first side doesn't sit as flat on the board as it does on the back side of the crappy. This paper wheel creates a hollow ground edge which i like on my knifes and tools.
Thanks. Yes, I still love this method and I’ve gotten better with it. Developing a burr on each side is a game changer, and this gets it done quickly. Gotta love a sharp knife!
Really enjoyed the video. There was a guy at a gun show a couple of years back that had this system. Wives sent their husbands to stand in line to get their knives sharp. I was amazed and always wondered what it was...until i saw your video. But this is exactly what he had. I have bought mine and looking forward to testing it. Thanks for the great video.
Glad you enjoyed it. It’s still my favorite sharpening system for knives. Thanks for the comments!
gave up on regritting the mdf wheel, made an 8" plywood wheel, glued on 240 grit emery sandpaper, lasting over 50 sharpening and still going without any signs of failing!!!!
I’ve had to regrit the wheel twice and it’s not my favorite activity lol.
Use both hands to control the blade. This is true of using bench stones as well. Do not use force to accelerate the sharpening. A final strop is in order and then periodically thereafter. 80% of your sharpening needs can be handled with a good strop and stropping techniques.
One additional comment, i have a strop belt with green polishing grease on it that i hit to remove the bur after you have polished it, this keeps you from having to chase the bur back and forth until it is removed. Great video, please be safe.
Good tip!
Great video AP! Wish I had room for a grinder. The future home of Boomer Ranger Ron's Reloading Bench is the old furnace room, and both Harbor Freight work benches will be made out with the DILLION 5500 and other cartridge making devices. That said, I'd love to have all my kitchen knives this sharp!
Sounds like it’s time to put another extension on the house! 😀
@@leafinitup1 I'm sure I can squeeze in a grinder on the bench! The BIG issue is that RUclips is cracking down on gun videos! I'll send you some startling information and facts on this segment!
@@boomerrangerron The extreme censorship going on, not just on RUclips, is very unfortunate.
Turn grinder around use the top of the wheel
Digging this my man. I'll have to pick one of these kits up.
You’ll love it. Your knives will do wonders on all that smoked venison!
Excellent video Andrew
Thanks for watching Jason. I appreciate the feedback.
Great video I have to get that into the cart thanks
Thanks Matt! This thing was a total game changer for me. I’ll never have a dull knife again!
Great video Andrew! I'm bringing my fillet knife out to your place the next time I'm out on Long Island! I'm still sharpening all my knives by hand with a stone and oil. Seems to work just fine for me, but I'd love to know how to sharpen broadheads. Wished I had the space for a bench grinder but all my tools are in the construction shed! And the post Covid-19 haircut looks good too!
LOL. I’m done with the hippie look for the summer. Bring your fillet knives, and bring a striped bass for us to work on! Thanks Ron! Recognize that black knife? I love it.
@@leafinitup1 uh
Glad to see you used one of those knives for a haircut
Funny, my daughter said the same thing to me tonight. 🤣
Turn the grinder so it rotates away from you. Then you can place the knife facing away from you, and use the top of the wheel, simply angling the knife at the correct angle. Much more stable and safe.
That’s what the directions say, but I didn’t like having to reach over the wheels. I’m more comfortable/ secure. The way I had it. Thanks for the input though. These wheels are absolutely fantastic.
@@leafinitup1 one guy simply switched the switch so the wheels turned away from him, but the switch was on the front.
How much is the wheel kit? I didn’t hear anything on price. How are we to know if it is worth the money?

IMO, excellent value and time savings, and well worth it for sharp knives. However I recommend having it on its own dedicated bench grinder.
Dude turn the grinder around and sharpen with the wheel turning away from you.
I reversed the base so I have the switch in front where it should be. Sharpening on top is brilliant!
I think you may have done the serration blade incorrectly. It looked like you kinda introduced the serrations into the wheel’s edge. Te way I believe it is to have been done was to only use the wheel to the non serrated sides of the blade and then the side opposite the serrated entirely to the polishing wheel and the serrated side to the polishing wheel. JUST THAT POLISHING WHEEL WILL BE ENOUGH TO “TWEAK” THE SERRATIONS. The way you did it you’ll run the risk of running your serrations. It’s your knife so it is absolutely your choice, I’m just trying to help you out.good luck.
Appreciate the feedback. Thanks
Have you checked out the guided knife systems I got a cheap knockoff and some quality stones from edge pro and am getting best edges ever ( stones that comes with the cheap version really terrible quality and not even worth trying those)
I agree that the cheap ones aren’t worth it, And I couldn’t justify the price of the better ones. I think the better ones may be good for sharpening broadheads as well.
@@leafinitup1 I can shave with my broadheads
@@welderoo I’ll have to pick one of those up. I still struggle with some of my broadheads.
@@leafinitup1 couldn’t figure out how to reply with a video on here so sent to messenger and that was after just getting sharpener and trying for like 1 day it’s so easy
Can you do one sharpening those iron will beoadheads?
I wouldn’t recommend using this particular system for the broadheads. For knives it’s incredible, but the wheels can grab the broadheads and toss them. The Iron Will website /RUclips channel has a good video on the best sharpening method for them.
Tried finding this system and couldn't find it for sale. Maybe out of business?
There is a link for it in the description section of this video
eBay has similar kits for $40
Broken hunk flat fine porcelain no glaze free no danger ⚡⚡ sharper knives
keep cut edge facing direction of motion when sharpening don't pull backwards on porcelain
Just learn to use a 20$ whetstone and you'll be able to make hundreds of knives razor sharp. Also a 15$ leather strop for perfection.
Been there done that… Too much time for me. This system gives me a razor sharp edge in literally seconds

Why do people want to have a shaving sharp knife? Whats the point? Its going to dull as soon as you use it on food. Unless you are actually shaving.
1) because people want to be cool like Crocodile Dundee 🤣
2) as a hunter, a shaving sharp knife, really does make a difference when skinning and butchering an animal. Cuts come out cleaner and it’s just easier.
@@leafinitup1 well then... I look like the idiot. Lol
Too hard to hold at the correct angle I personally would never buy it.
Oh come on, the rest of us can do it, you can do it too.
Why buy 2 wheels of this crap @ $87.00 when you can go to any HD and get a 3/4 inch 2 X 4 sheet of this stuff for $27.00 and make 8 or 10 or more yourself! This company must be making a killing .... Every one has a jigsaw.
Because if it’s the slightest bit uneven and not perfectly round, it will become a weapon spinning at 3500 RPMs. It also has cut outs for reduced vibration and to keep the knife cool. Not impossible to cut your own if you have the appropriate tools, skills and time.
@@leafinitup1 That's why you put it on the grinder then use some 60 or 100 grit paper to make it flat first. Plus, I don't care what that bozo said in his instruction, you need a variable speed grinder and use it on the slowest speed. Right about 1725 RPM
Most clowns don't have the "skilz" to cut out round paper wheels for 3000rpm. I don't have the patience, didn't pay retail, but love the system.
@@stephanienassman1849This system works great at 3500 RPM on any old grinder. How many wheels have you cut out and set up now?
nice video! but it is easier ways to get the bur of! You can cut it against some wood and it will release that much faster. first grind then remove the bur then polish
