sorry for the lack of sources, but I remember seeing people making clay grinding wheels. There's probably examples right here on youtube. it's likely to be the cheapest way to get a large wheel for a treadle-operated grindstone.
Normal earthenware is great to sharpen on. Depending on the clay and possibly added sand you can get anything between a coarse and almost a polishing stone
Well shoot, I was researching sharpening systems to purchase ~ Lansky, KME, Wicked Edge but after seeing this, I'll just go to Home Depot and get a brick....
Call it the 1000 year old stone. It will be a meme between you and your viewers. The people who have been watching will know it's a brick but new ones won't that's the joke. It's an inside joke.
This made my day! I'm laughing so hard. I suggested Excaliburr already on a previous video. How about calling it Wilburr? Because you don't know if it will burr.
WHen I worked construction I used to insulate pipes and duct work. You needed very sharp knives. I lost my sharpening stone one day and had no way to sharpen my knives. ALmost ever job is concrete floor. I decided to try and sharpen it on the concrete. It worked and it worked well and they are cheapo knives. I never carried a stone with me again. Every few hours just get down on the floor and scrape.
That has some to do with it. It comes down to how you sharpen it as well. A major factor is how steep or not you make the sharpening angle. You can make a knife ridiculously sharp but it won't hold its edge for very long, or you can make a knife that's somewhat really sharp but it will hold its edge for a very long time because it takes longer to curl the edge. Also to OP, more expensive stones are there to make a knife ridiculously, almost unreasonably, sharp. it's very useful for kitchens because it's very easy to keep a sharp knife sharp, it's not very easy to make a dull knife sharp. These expensive stones allow you to do touch ups with very fine grains so you don't have to resharpen your knife from scratch. The mirror polish isn't necessarily there to look nice, the less resistance a knife has to cut through the sharper it stays. The mirror polish lets a knife glide through, making it get a burr slower. If you want a functional knife, then most people can make use of just about anything hard, if you want to maintain your knife edges, then it's worth the small investment to buy a polishing stone. You can make a functional knife out of a brick but it won't retain its edge and you'll ruin your knife relatively quick if you do it too frequently, you're grinding away a lot of the metal when doing this.
Of course you don't. When i was little i used to sharpen the knives in the house with flat river stones gathered from the sand my grandparents always had in their yard to use for various purposes, mainly for maintenance, walls and wood or whatever else that burns stoves. Found out that those things left a shiny finish rather than using the rugged grinder stones i had acces there.
Love your videos. I too have sharpened on a brick. I found a cheap, old, beat up cleaver that was taking way too long on a 1K Shapton water stone. So I took it to a brick wall and spent some time getting rid of divots and finally setting the bevel after removing a great deal of metal. Went back to the Shaptons and strop s and got it sharp and is now a daily use knife. The brick is also very clean looking now. Again, thanks for all the great info.
Thank you for the time you put into your videos’. I am learning so much. You are a great teacher among a lot of instructors. You have inspired me to learn the art of hand sharpening. I started of with a Japanese knife from Burrfection and I am very happy with it. Hopefully I will have practiced enough on some old cheap knifes in time to have a go on sharping it myself
I have an unhealthy infatuation with knives and sharpening since I started watching your videos. I love your elation at the sharpness obtained from the brick :-)
Technique means a lot. Also, anything that will dull a knife will eventually sharpen a knife too. I use paper to put a final polish on my edges and if you take enough time with it or use a machine like I use it works beautifully. Slow...but worth it in the end
Hi Friend, Don't be surprised. This is the way them days in Srilanka We used to sharpen a knife, even without soaking in water. Next time try without water !!!!
That's a handsome looking brick how about Rock Hudson You could probably use that shiny color magazine paper to strop the knife, the ink is usually a clay polymer and has a grit rating in the several thousands, you can also use it to buff out scratches in glass or even lap carbide if you put it on a very flat piece of glass.
hey this was recommended to me, its the first video by you that i ever saw, and i dont understan 50% of what you are talking about but i had to subscribe to you because youre so incredibly sympathic and i dont know watching you is just enjoyable keep it up !
Some shale rock has very fine grain and is naturally pre oiled. Not a bad choice for camping. The windows on a car door can also put a good edge on in a pinch.
I enjoyed this, it was fun to watch. Just a little history, there are parts of stone buildings that have been found in various places, rome, england elsewhere etc that have deep wells in it where people have stopped to sharpen their knives throughout the centuries.
The results that can be achieved using "junk" tools can be pretty good, I have been without my normal tools and have been using a cheap 200/800 oilstone from the hardware store, lubricated with peanut oil, to produce a bevel, the back of a china plate for the final cut and first strop and then an old belt for the final strop. Although not professional in appearance, it produces a razor edge that is easy to maintain, 90% is technique.
As I was falling asleep last night. Clay has microscopic bits of aluminum oxide in it. Aluminum oxide is harder than steel. I wonder if it's possible to sharpen a knife with a brick. I found this video in the morning. What a gem. Gold star!
Just about to dip into the sharpening stone world, and this is a very good video to keep handy when it gets more tempting to spend more money on this. Bricky!
I don't know if you have named "the brick" yet, but I thought "Dull-dley DoRight" might work. I've enjoyed your channel for years. I enjoy it when you mention your personal history and your love of family. Keep up the great work!
I'm curious, is this a clay brick? (looks like it) I wonder if you would get similar results with a concrete/cement brick? Thoughts on how the 2 would compare to different whet stone grits? Great video, love your energy and expertise!
@@vidard9863 i used to sharpen a machete with a river stone when i was little, my father used to teach me to rub 2 river stone together to form a flat surface if i can't find a flat stone.
@@LeftOverMacNCheese works well if you have soft flattish stone, like shale, especially since shale tends to be very fine grain, but yes you can always make two stones flatter by rubbing them against themselves, I should have mentioned that.
Haha tour reaction to the paper test is priceless 😂 awesome job! Did you decide on the name? Burrick pops first in my mind, but The Zero Stone sounds pretty good. Or in an orderly fashion Stone Zero since the number comes always second Someone said Bryky, also catchy

Definitely a good alternative to whetstones. I will have to order fireclay and sandblasting material like SIC for my custom flattening stone some time.
That's not true, ice gets more dense as it gets colder, as do all objects. The less movement an object has (IE: kinetic energy in the atoms) the more solid the structure its creating.
@Bumbleness Supreme Brady Not quite. Ice is an odd material. After about -3 degrees, it actually becomes less dense as the temperature drops. It's why ice floats on water.
sandstone and other stones have been used to sharpen since the cave men. For the bricks a person finds it depends on what sands and materials were used because some sand is rounded grains of quartz--windblown sand of the southwest is a good example because each micro grain is like round balls. However if sandstone was made from shards of quartz that were sharp then stone will cut better. So the goal would be to spot which bricks have the sharpest micro structure likely using local ingredients and then stock up on those bricks from that area. Agatized material of any kind like jasper or agatized conglomerate can be sawed and it also will sharpen.
Definitely Nokia stone, have seen it bellow in the comments and it's a worthy name. I sharpen my knives on a broken piece of flat granite floor tile, works great, try that once when you have a chance instead of the finer grits.
I've only lately begun watching your videos and yet my knives are getting sharper. 👍 You complement other 'sharpeners' so well. And, you are a joy to both watch and listen to. The stone, brick, previous part of a wall. Seeing it's a master, could it be ブルク Buriku?
From your expertise, what grit size do you think that brick is? And do you think it can smooth out small edge chips? I've got loads of old knives. I'm planning to purchase a 1000 grit whetstone but I need to remove some chips first. Do you reckon I can use a brick first to iron out any chips first. If possible please post a video and see if bricks can remove small dents and chips before moving onto a whetstone. Btw, Very good video. Most interesting and satisfying.
If you made a video just like this without any talking, it'd be ASMR. The sounds in this video are *so* pleasing! Especially the knife going through the paper or when you dulled the knife on the brick. Eargasmic.
This video demonstrated the difference between expensive sharpening stones and lesser ones perfectly. The cheaper gear takes a lot more time and effort to achieve a desirable result.
Used to drag the kitchen knife on the edge of the ceramic plates on our electric kitchen stove to get a keener edge back in my youth, worked just fine.
Depends of the knife. I used a ceramic knife for touch ups for a while after I broke my alfresco double surf and waited to get a new one. Worked decent.

Think about it, back in the days of jumping around the jungle we used what ever was around us to make things work, I'm sure many a knife tool or arrow was sharpened with whatever rock was available and I'm sure it was damn sharp. The hand is still the greatest tool around.
Its both depressing and amazing that the brick knife is sharper than any of the knives in my home are, and have ever been.
