Great video. I didn’t know they made steel angle guides.
sure do they are great
I enjoyed your discussion of honing. I too frequently recommend this to my customers, and I usually give a demonstration, using the same vertical stroke method you describe. I also point out to customers that honing doesn't accomplish a thing if you aren't hitting the apex, and then I show them the "Sharpie trick" so they can actually see whether they are hitting the flat of the blade, the shoulder, or the apex. I also show them a flat Nanohone diamond Nano Strop, which is costly but very simple to use when combined with the Sharpie method.
Good luck with the move. Moving is one of the most difficult tasks in life. I wish you the best at your new shop!
I sharpened a Henkels for my Brother in law and He started honing/stropping before He used it every time.... it's been >1 year and it's still cutting ok. If you use a good board, avoid the dishwasher and put in some maintenance it's crazy what's possible. ❤👍
Good luck with the move!
thanks so far its going well
I wish you a very happy time in your new home
Ditto (good luck) with the move-not fun. Good tips on the honing.
Thanks 👍
When you get to move in to the new shop, would you do a video of the move in a set process for a good sharpening workflow?
I am going to try I will say I have made changes to my current shop several times over the last 5 years but hopefully I can get something good right out of the gates and not have to make to many changes
Its pretty ballsy to tell Paul he doesnt know how to sharpen a knife 😂
Quick question - I've noticed you have a few good work benches with butcher block tops. Got any recs for one I can just buy as-is or one that would be a stupid-simple setup? I'm looking for something probably 2X4ft that I can mount a 4" bench vice on, and maybe a smaller bench grinder. Kinda hoping for something reasonably affordable ($200-300ish) that wont be too much of a project.

A few years ago I got a really inexpensive butcher block top to put on a laundry room cabinet, from IKEA. Might be worth looking into getting one of those and attaching it to whatever suits your needs.
