    I have watched many, MANY videos about how to sharpen knives on whetstones, and this is hands down "THE BEST" best one I've ever seen. His explanations and demonstrations at each step of the sharpening process were concise, very easy to follow and clearly explained. Prior to watching this video, and based on the instructions provided in other people's video, I would "sharpen" one of my knives. But there was just one slight problem; after I completed the sharpening process, my knife was now more dull than it was prior to me "sharpening" it ! And I mean that literally! it was very noticeably duller! And despite me being a decades long outdoors-man, I could never successfully sharpen any of knives until now, and thanks to Burrfection!! Thank you so much for the video and your instructions!

      @seansulli4 4 года назад +4

      Is it good knife?
      My boning knife is a model but i like it for that reson.
      Real good knives have great edges and if you lose it its hard to get that back. The cheaper blades dont compare to others, one of the reasons, amongst others, is the softer metal. Ive found I have to maintain my knives more frequently. But it takes half the time and soooo much easier to ger my edge back.

      Maybe You sharpend it so fast as Rick is talking and then, without his routine, it's impossible to get his results! ;-D Try to take 'Knive sharpening' as a 'Meditation'! and I'm sure You will reach an other dimension of sharpness (and maybe in awareness...).
      Stay sharp and happy! Sincerly Yours, RoB

    When I first tried sharpening knives I found this video to be a bit overwhelming. But now that I've successfully ruined a cheapo knife getting myself comfortable with the whetstone and the basics of the process, all the advice here is super clear and easy to follow and I'm able to get razor sharp edges on my kitchen knives! Thank you! Recipes that used to take me 20 minutes with my dull knife take me 5 minutes now that it's sharpened which means I cook for myself way more.

  • @betterinsodapop

    15 years ago, I bought a Global santoku and 1000 grit whetstone. I've been using them both for years with decent results. After watching this video and implementing your techniques (specifically: pressure on trailing edge,) I got my knife to what I would call razor sharp! I was slicing through my junk mail with ease and joy. Thank you!

  • @Flashahol
    @Flashahol 5 лет назад +12

  • @mikenone6328
    @mikenone6328 5 лет назад +1

    Thanks for the video and links info on your preferred techniques. I always like to look and read about how others go about honing blades. My personal preference for EDC is micro-beveling the edge to get max performance out of the blade in terms of over all sharpness and edge retention. Imho it is the best way I have found to date. But I'm always willing to try new ideas and see if they work better.

    Ryky I would love to see you make the new yanagiba video since this is a unique method and requires further insight. I was hoping that you can display the polishing steps using loaded strops instead of stones? I bought a couple strops from you and have them loaded with .5, 1 and 5 micron diamond paste. My highest grit stone is a 1000 Cerax. I am nervous about messing the yanagiba up and am waiting for that next video before I dive in.

    Hello sharpening master I have a question I love the videos you have improved my sharpening skill so much I’ve even started sharpening knives for other peoples for a small charge. I am professional chef with 15 years plus experience I many use DMT diamond plates and a water stone for polishing what is your thoughts on DMT plates (stones) pros and cons.And a quick side question my DMT plate is 600 and 1200 grit which I use for my Normal sharpening I want to upgrade my cheap wet stone to something better would you recommend a Chosera 3k for micro bur and polishing. Thanks keep up the great work

    One thing I'd like to know is if you have a two sided whetstone with say 800 and 6000 grit how do you know when it's time t resharpen the knife edge on the 800 grit instead of maintaining it on the 6000 grit stone. Please help me understand this.

    I bought a Victorinox 10" Chefs knife 41 years ago and have used it virtually every day since. I have had it on a stone maybe seven or eight times and stropped it every 5-6 meals. Apart from the tip of the knife becoming slightly rounded it is still in great condition! Still and all... I strop an odd number of times due to 'advice' from another chef and my knife has started to 'lean' so this video and the others have been a godsend. Best advice...? Keep your knives separate from one another and away from other utensils.

  • @Stolo17

    Hi Ricky, thanks for your videos! Do you have any input on using your left and right hand for sharpening each side of your knife? Using my right hand felt unnatural for both sides of knife, so I started switching. Results have been good so far but I have not found anyone doing this.

    @bumstudios8817 6 лет назад +2

    Hay ricky, i was sharpening on a controlled angle system. These systems usually have rather small stones as they are mostly used for pocket knives. What i notice is the stones load really fast and seem to be less efficient. I heard somewhere to use dishsoap and water instead of just water or oil for the stones and i tried it and it works great, but i dont know if dish soap is negative for the knife but i wouldnt think so since you wash it with it, anyway do you have suggestions or want to do a video on ways to prevent the stones loading up with metal too fast.

    It is probably the best channel about the knives and the sharpening techniques. So simple and so clear explanations, and so useful tips. Thanks to the Ryky, I learned how to get my kitchen knives really razor sharp. It's amazing because I working in the machine and the motor building industry for more than 10 years, and all of that time I successfully sharpened the metal cutting tools, but every time that I tried to apply my knowledge and my experience of the tool's sharpening to the simple kitchen knife, I failed more or less. Now just with $30 3000-8000 stone from Aliexpress, I got my knives capable of to shave the hair on my hand.
    And now I have a question: is it a good idea to use stones like SUEHIRO GOKUMYO 'GMN100 #10000 GMN100, Shapton Kuromaku Ceramic Stone #12000 K0705, or SUEHIRO GOKUMYO #15000 GMN150, just after a simple $30 8000 stone?
    And it is interesting to hear Ryky's opinion about the difference between Shapton Kuromaku Ceramic Stone #12000 K0705 and SUEHIRO GOKUMYO 'GMN100 #10000 GMN100. The price differs a lot, it's interesting to know the performance difference.

    Actually, I'd like to see you demonstrate sharpening a Kukri.
    I love the videos, and respect (if not completely agree with) everything you explain and instruct us (audience) on. I think you'd show something interesting and helpful as much as entertaining (to say the least) by putting a razor edge (if possible) and clean finish on a Kukri, not just in terms of "well, this is an interesting and complicated shape"... BUT with the guiding philosophy that "EVERYTHING is simply a process of steps"...
    In any case, I think I'd stand to learn something... probably something cool. ;o)

      gnarth d'arkanen you either need a very small stone, or a round stone, or if you’re fine with “ruining” a stone, you can use a corner of a stone. But the best way to do it without any new equipment of you don’t have a small round stone, is to take a file or sandpaper and convex the end of a stone and use that to sharpen it.

    Hello Ricky! I think your videos are excellent! Question: is it ok to leave a whetstone in water (as in a Tupperware container filled with water)?

    at 2:08 , when you are trying to find the factory predetermined sharpening angle by finding when it will slip because you hit a shoulder of the knife, what is the shoulder of the knife?

    Another excellent video! Thanks for all your help! Have you reviewed a LANBAOSHI 1000/6000 stone? Like it? Also, what is around your wrist?
