Got one for xmas and it is a great tool, BUT i would set it on a stable surface , works great that way.
Finally picked up one of these. Got my PM2 back to shaving sharp. Couldn't quite get the surgical factory edge, but works better than any other sharpener I've used. You'd probably have to throw down for a Wicked Sharp or Edge Pro to do better. Definitely a keeper.
An eraser works really well at cleaning the diamond plates and the ceramic rod. I have an a couple of erasers in my sharpening kit.
Bought one a couple weeks ago... hugely impressed and I've been sharpening blades for over 20yrs. Muscle memory of the angle is very important and the angle guides do a great job of training your muscles. Took a very dull kitchen knife that I hadn't sharpened in a few months (used Japanese water stones last time), and it was impressively sharp in minutes. The leather strop was dry as a bone right out of the box so I added a generous bit of honing oil to moisturize it then loaded it with green chromium oxide compound and it's perfect. I've also got a worksharp Ken onion edition belt sharpening system and a worksharp 3000 for my woodworking tools - all around they've got a stellar lineup for sharpening
Couldn't disagree with you more - product is disappointing and not fit for purpose. Have now tries to use this product on a simple folding hunting knife - does not provide an edge that is usable at all. Forget shaving the hairs off your arms - you'd have to scrub the knife up and down and I'd still think they'd still be there.
How to you know if your knife should be sharpened to 20 degrees or not?
I've had a number of :field" sharpeners over the years, but nearly all of them were just honing rods. This is a real sharpener. I've used it to sharpen everything up to an 8: chef's knife. I have it with me everywhere I can expect to encounter a knife.
I love mine For different angles I just pop the plate off and work the knife angle that way
The ceramic rod is probably for microbeveling. That's why it's at a steeper angle.
I used to not like serrations, but over time I've found myself using them increasingly for really quick and efficient cutting. And they save my pain edge, especially with hard plastics. Serrations make for quick and easy work. Try using them more often. You'll find they really do come in handy for really quick cutting where a plain edge would take forever, and leave you with a dull edge.
I bought this sharpener based on your review and it's been excellent. I am not very good sharpening, so it's nice to have something that helps out. The only issue I have is that - like you mention in the review - the guides on the ceramic rods are not the same angle as the stones. Not sure why.
I would set the thing on a log, flat rock, anything. The only way I would hold it in my hand would be for fish hooks or tiny pen blades & such. Besides, if ya set it on a fairly decent surface, it's going to be a heck of a lot more stable & consistent.....vs....trying to hold it steady. It would be much easier, don't ya think? Pretty cool little field sharpener system though, for work tool type blades.
Good job, I will doing a video soon on my 5 favorite pocket sharpeners. Here's a link if interested in this sharpener: amzn.to/2RaVn7G
I have used mine many times and it does the job. I'm embarrassed to say I didn't know the plates were removable. Thanks for that.
I believe the ceramic rods are set at a steeper angle because they are for honing the blade (removing the bur) then the leather strip is used once complete to polish the finished edge.
I was having some trouble with this sharpener but this video showed me the pressure and that trick with the index finger fixed a big issue I was having but even then the knives were functionally sharper than what I started out with so great sharpener for beginners. Thank you for the video.
Thank you for your review on the Work Sharp field sharpener. I have recently purchased a Spyderco Manix 2 lightweight (thanks to your review) and am not comfortable sharpening using the stones that I own. I can get a decent sharpness, good for working with, but doesn't cut paper super well.
With the Work Sharp field sharpener, I feel confident to sharpen my new knife without worrying as much to damaging the blade. Paper is now easily sliced through with ease with only a minute or so to sharpen. I am impressed.
Just stumbled uppon this old video of yours and I find it quite amusing to see how dynamically and badass-way you sharpen your knives then compared to current videos... ;)
Just bought mine a week ago... It's already earned a spot in the coveted bug out truck, wonderful product
Great videonu just bought this thing and I good at sharpening knives now I am a stud at it in less then 5 mins my knives were shaving sharp
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I've had this tool for over a year, and love how it works. Your video reinforced that I'm doing things correctly.
InYourDefense Glad to hear it!
Hello from Atlanta Georgia I really like your presentation Cena have a lot of experience in knives just listening to you talk I think you did a wonderful job on that knife sharpener the Benchmade is very nice for the field and it really gets the job done thanks a lot my friend I appreciate it God bless and take care great video great great video we're getting an education here
Hey buddy, itl be 25 degrees on the fine edge to ensure the final bevel reaches the edge - kinda like a tertiary bevel, common in woodworking tools :)
Ah, the Rat 1 ! Best
Great video, the angle goes from 20 to 25 degrees on the ceramic to break off the burr the developed on both sides as we go from one side to the next. We are to lighten the pressure and pass it less aggressively.
I believe the 25 degree on the ceramic side is more aimed toward hitting that secondary bevel to refine the edge. Hope that helps with why the sharpener transitions from 20 to 25 degrees.
That fish hook design of the ceramic rod is also very good for medium to large serrations, that's how I sharpen my serrated knives
I bought one a few months ago. I love it. Works great and easy to use.
Vinny outside Glad you like it.
A great little tool. that always goes camping with me, but lives in my kitchen.
I agree that a 20-degree angle on the hone would be a better idea, but I've learned to deal with it, as have you.
A lot of folks don't know this (I didn't for a while), but the ceramic rod also comes out for cleaning. There's a little stainless pin next to the knob. Use a small rod; the micro driver on a Wave,. for example, to push the pin through, and pull out the rod. I usually stow the pin under one of the diamond plates.
What a great product. This works much better for me than some other sharpeners I have purchased. Thank you & thank you WorkSharp.
James Hines Glad it has helped you.
+gideonstactical should i get this or the smiths trihone? plz reply quik and thank you :D
I'm a recent subscriber here having only found your channel a week or so ago. I didn't come across this video because of that though, I was actually looking at this on Amazon and some of the reviews said to "check out videos on RUclips" (one of those head slapping "Duh!" moments, LOL), so I did a search on this sharpener, this was the 1st video in the list that RUclips popped up (I'm glad BTW :) ).
My question is, this was 4 years ago, what are your thoughts on it now?
I wanted to mention, I don't just randomly subscribe to channels because there's a video or 2 that I like. While I really do/did enjoy your channel before I discovered your faith, it was your faith plus the content that made me click "Subscribe". The content that I've seen so far (including this video) plus the encouragement of another's faith that you share in your channel that let me know I wanted to :)
Anyways, wishing you and yours a very blessed holiday season and a merry Christmas!
I have used on everything to my ZT Assisted Opener to my Winkler II Damascus. It is awesome! If you know how to use and handle a blade, you won’t cut yourself!
OK, I have the guided system and I really love it, so I am thinking, should I buy this? Boom, yes! Great for a quick and super sharp edge, fits easily into small places but still big enough to be a useful tool, has all the components you need in a small package. Sure, if I am going to sharpen a bunch of knives, I will pull out the Work Sharp Guided system, but for everyday quick edge and touch up, this rocks! Thanks GT, keep up the great work!!
The more I use mine the better I like it, I especially like the ceramic rod it cleans up my blades very nicely. This is an essential piece of gear for me. I have one in my pack and another on my desk. I would recommend having a larger strap along with the sharpener because the one that comes on it is too narrow to do much, and tears up pretty quickly.
Do you have to wet it?
I will say, I own a wicked edge system but, I just picked this up and I really like it. I mean, I wish it was a bit finer than 20 degrees but, that puts a great work edge that will be durable. My wicked edge will be my go to on my expensive blades but, I love this for a quick job on my cheaper blades. It gives a fantastic edge if you do your part. Great working edge not a mirror, but shaving sharp with a little bite for digging in. So far I've only used it on S-30v and AUS8 I wouldn't want to do my harder S-30v or D2 or anything like that but, it would do it if it was all you had. I freaking love this little sharpener.
Greetings from Aus. Had one of these for a couple months. Love it. Definitely recommend. Good review mate.
Mitchell Sichter Thanks so much glad you have had good results with it also.
What if you have a blade that has a differenty angled bevel?
Love the videos keep em coming but I have a suggestion for you I think if you put a weaved lanyard on the end instead of the loop you'll give yourself that extra room to get a good purchase on the field sharpener just like you would some of the smaller handled knives thanks
I will have to try that!
Zach Henderson Excellent suggestion. Adding it to my sharpener.
This sharpener works amazing I use it every time a field sharpen
There's no reason not to own one of these. I recently also bought the Work Sharp Micro for maintaining the smaller folders and I love it.
The built in archery broad head wrench under the diamond plates is another great feature.
A GREAT PRODUCT AND A VERY NICELY DONE REVIEW! THANK YOU
+Lonnie T. Right on! Thanks!
Great demonstration. I've been wanting to get one of these for my field kit/bug out bag. Very affordable also!
Thanks so much!
Attaboy with the RAT I have had that puppy for years now! One of my best purchases... it has gone through hell and still gets a razor sharp edge.
Nice idea, but those angle guides close off the sharpening area in a weird way. I have a Smith's 2-sided diamond handheld sharpener and while it doesn't have angle guides--which I wouldn't bother with anyway--it does provide a better handle in the form of a cover that slips over the stones when you're done. I just glued a small piece of ceramic and a strip of leather with some polishing paste for finer honing of the edge. For larger blades, I generally take the stone to the edge rather than the edge to the stone. More like you'd do with a file on a machete. Oh well. Whatever works for you.
Great Job !! Just bought one of these yesterday at Scheels. Your video was very informative. Thank You
Awesome sharpener. Have two. One in my edc and one in my bowhunting pack. Fish hook sharpener seemed worthless at first (to me) but it's actually excellent for sharpening the point of your knife. Just watch the rod rotation easy to slip off and poke yourself. Carmex keeps the strop in good condition and I use a little metal polish compound on my strop. Surgically sharp :)
I have the Benchmade version (a freebie with a knife purchase), best field sharpening system invented!!
Great Review! This is what I use exclusively... It's a great tool, it is the most portable and versatile sharpening system I've seen.
The ramps should have been removable to have multiple ramps with different angles.
Norse Woodman no its not... the standard one is 23. The 2.21 is 34
One more thing to fall off and lose in the field...
@Norse Woodman No it's $40 in Canada buddy!
@@booishoois309 $44 in Czech Republic. LOL.
Have one inbound any day now from amazon, saw reviews of the worksharp before but this vid just confirms it that i made a solid choice! Mahalo for your review! Kenny
Sweet, and thanks for the support!
That's just a fantastic review, much appreciated ! I already placed an order to get my own Worksharp Field Sharpener.
Wow. Whatever I want to buy, you post a review of it. And it is always amazing!
Thanks so much for the support and kind words Ethan!
Aaron, figured I would weigh in on a few questions you had in this video.
1) At the 5:15 mark you speak about cleaning the ceramic rods with powdered cleanser (like comet). While this is certainly my preferred method for cleaning my ceramic stones, I'm not so sure I would advise doing that on this sharpener due to the fact that you wouldn't want to get the leather strop wet or get comet worked into the leather strop either. So I would probably avoid getting the whole sharpener wet other than the diamond stones (which can be removed and cleaned separately). For the ceramic rods, I think you're probably better off just simply wiping them off with a damp cloth or paper towel and calling it a day. It would have been nice if Worksharp could have designed the ceramic rods to also detach from the sharpener as well. Then you could certainly give them a proper cleaning with some comet cleanser and a nylon toothbrush or scouring pad.
2) At the 6:30 mark you demonstrated sharpening a 10" blade (junglas) on the sharpener which looked a bit sketchy doing it the way you were demonstrating. My tip would be to rest the blade against the 20 degree angle guide (if you need it), then move the blade in small, controlled circular motions. Slowly work your way along the blade until you've raised a burr along the entire edge, then flip the blade over and repeat on the opposite side. If the blade is so long or so big that it's awkward, then take the sharpener to the blade and move the sharpener in small, controlled circles and keep the blade stationary.
Using circular motions is also a much faster way of sharpening than simply pushing the blade across the stone. Using circular motions also allows you to hold and maintain a consistent angle without the need to constantly pick the blade up, find your angle again, and reset it at the end of the stone for your next stroke.
3) At the 6:40 mark you mentioned that you were not sure why the ceramic guides were set to 25 degree angles instead of 20 like the other sides. This is most likely because worksharp understood that ceramics are really only intended as finishing stones for burr removal and by raising the angle by 5 degrees, you create a micro bevel which does a few things: adding a micro bevel adds strength to the cutting edge to reduce rolling and chipping. It also removes the burr created by the 20 degree sharpening angle more quickly due to the 5 degree increased angle. Being a "field sharpener" they want it to work quickly so the user doesn't have to spend a ton of time tuning up his equipment in the field.
I own a myriad of sharpeners, including this small backpackable "Worksharp Model WGSGFS221 and I have to admit ....It's the SCHIZNICK!
Also, I certainly agree with most of your post but to touch on your first point, I have discovered that one can actually REMOVE the "large" ceramic rod for cleaning by merely pressing out the small detent type pin that holds the red knob in place...( the one that's marked with the different coarseness settings).
It just pulls right out. To reinstall, one just has to fully seat the rod back in and then align the slots (cutouts) in the red knob while pushing the small pin back in place.
Easy way to clean the ceramic sharpeners is to just use a school eraser. No water needed and works great 👍
just bought this thing. hope it works well. gotta put my edge back on the avispa
A+++ on the review, just ordered one. Thanks for providing a high quality and informational review.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you Aaron. I have one ordered for a Christmas present.
i just ordered one as i have been impressed by the reviews of this product. when i use my other sharpener (lansky rod system) i use a chain mail fillet glove, that might come in handy (no pun intended) for using this too. just a thought.
Haha, nice.
Cleaning off the ceramic part i use a small rust eraser. Good video.
Bought one at Cabelas, absolutely love it.
I enjoyed that review. thank you... old information is not always outdated information.
if I may ask... what type of wedding band are you wearing? looking at some of your reviews, most rings wouldn't look that good even 12 hours out of the box.
Might be Tungsten Carbide, which is what I use as well.
Good video as always. I have that same sharpener it kicks ass. Another good tool is the work sharp knife and tool sharpener you just have to becareful and not grind off the tip of your knife. Be safe.
Right on
Which ceramic would you recommend for the serrated edges of a blade? Thank you liked and subbed
Your reviews keep getting better and better. Think from now on I'll wait for your review before I buy equipment.
Thanks so much, I am really glad that the videos are helpful!
I watched several videos of different knife sharpeners including this one. It was the key to my decision to order one.I am not very good at sharpening freehand and I think the angle guides will help. I watched your video on the EZE folding sharpener and your reference to this sharpener turned the tide. I will also incorporate the woven lanyard idea suggested by another viewer. My favorite knife, a Kershaw 1620, has an oddly curved blade. Can I sharpen it on the Diamond flats or should I use the 3 way ceramic tool? Thank you for the fine video.
I'm new to the knife world but do you think that would be ok as a primary sharpener? I just don't have a lot of room for something more elaborate. Although I really can't see how you can do much better than shaving your arm hair lol
A pencil eraser cleans ceramic really well
It could use a handle version. Along with a serious carbide cutter much like the speedy sharp. Not the kind with 2 at an angle the knife isdrug through.
There's a 5 degree increase so you can produce a microbevel. That said, I'd prefer a consistent angle as well.
Awesome review as usual. Picking one up from Amazon. Thanks
These work great on an axe. Remove the plate from the magnetically held grip and go for it. Then use the ceramic and the strop and you're good to go.
25 degree for secondary bevel.
yes
you look like a younger Tommy guerrero or whoever that is in your profile pic
Very good video and excellent description
1:47 excuse me sir what’s this space for?
you put your WEED in there man!
Just bought one. The have the instructions rolled up like a dollar bill you’d use for cocaine. Lol. Too many subtle hints with this thing.
Hey. Thenks for video.
I just got one of these and it seems really good.
Question: the leather stropp is green, not smoot, and transfering bits of this green particles to either knife or my hand. Is this normal because of its brand new or defect on this particular tool ?
Should i bring it back to store ??
An excellent video.
Thank you.
May I ask you? Why are on D.plates 20° degrees and on ceramic rods are 25° degrees?
Nice video, I´m thinking about this field sharpener.
Is it possible to sharpen curved blades with it? Blades like the Ontario sp53 and the Buck Paklite skinner 140?Great reviews, thanks a lot for all your effort. And say hello to Tommy.
Wow! Sold! I'll be getting one ASAP!
hey man, when should i use the diamond sharpener and when should i use the ceramic one?? great review by the way
3:20 gonna slice the crap outta your index finger.
Does it work on convex grind knife? Bravo 1
Could you use this as a primary sharpener
Sorry for the late reply but absolutely! It’s fantastic for touching up blades. I mostly carry smaller folders like the para 3 which I sharpen when it gets a bit dull. I suggest not using it when your knife is completely dull but it’s great for touching up blades
just got 2 off them great buy 30 bucks a piece thanks for the video
Awesome video. When do you use ceramic, when diamond? Does ceramic follow diamond?
Diamond coarse; than diamond smooth, than ceramic, than strop.
In video you’re actually pushing blade, I have this field sharpener and use a pulling/dragging motion and create small burr and then use ceramic and strop to get shaving sharp edge. Dr David
Nice review. But all you need to do is rub your hand along the leather to keep a bit of oil on it. Your hands have just enough oil on them to keep them from drying up & cracking. Learned this from a guy who strops with high end leather for straight edge razors. No need to put oil or paste on it unless you want to polish even more. I also do not understand why put 20 degree angle then a 25 degree angle. I personally would rather see a 17 degree angle for my fishing fillet knives.
Is this good for a benchmade pocket knife with a 15-17 degree angle?
What type of oil is used for the leather strap/stroppe?
It looks really hard to hold comfortably, as you point out, the thumb grip is way too short. Although possible, as you show, they're too small for bigger knives.I think I'll stick with my 6 x 2" diamond stones.
You’re supposed to stop the tip in the middle of the stone not slide it all the way off you’re going to round your tip that way
what's the knife being sharpened at 5:43
fine and corse ? what is the grit on each of it ? just wanted to know
Note that the leather strop comes oil infused. So maybe don't oil the leather until it's seen some use first.
Daniel G some of the ones you order from Amazon have been sitting there for a looong time. Mine actually came with some green mold on it if I'm not mistaken. Oiled it up with some olive oil :D
joey8obby that's the stropping compound. 😊
Can you sharpen the Mora carbon steels with this? Love your videos! Thanks
Im about a decade late here, but what model was the 154cm fixed blade?
It’s an Ontario Rat 1 but they only come out in Aus8, D2 and S35VN.
@gideonstactical I just recently bought this the other day and I cannot get my Benchmade Sharp to save my life. I am doing it as you were explaining it. Any suggestions?
I have one and I love it! Very handy. Great review.
Thanks!
Keep in mind that the actual bevel angle will be not 20 but 23 degrees or more, depending on the cross-section of your blade.
The actual angle will probably be more dependent on the person doing the sharpening than the guideline ramps at the ends, since it's not maintained at any particular angle other than the hand holding it. Holding it freely in the air while sharpening will most likely vary a great deal from any single angle throughout the stroke.
Cheers Mate!
What knife was the 154cm knife? I like the design.
