MAXAMET SHARPENING EXPLAINED
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 май 2018
- This is what I do for my Maxamet sharpening service.
I only sharpen Maxamet steel knives for customers, no other knives or steels.
No exceptions. I want to be a custom knife maker not a professional sharpener.
I'm using the Gritomatic Poltava Metallic Bonded CBN stones
full review of these later, they are found here

Thanks a lot Shawn. Even thou I can sharpen most knives to hair whittling this one whip me. You put the sharpest edge I my self ever had are ever felt on a knife. On top that your are a super nice person that takes time with people. Highly recommend for anyone wanting Maxamet sharpen right. My the good Lord bless.
Randy Parker Thanks Randy, glad I could help, thanks for the privilege , it was very satisfing creating something that can bring someone joy.
God bless
@@FearNoSteel how to I send you my pm2 yes it’s in the same steel
Yup , we use the gifts the good Lord blessed us with , whatever that may be .
You could kill it at a TV show lol I swear. Your knowledge and ability to speak clearly and precisely are unmatched! Thank you so much Shawn for real. This stuff keeps me sane these days ❤️
It's an absolute joy and privilege to watch and listen to you explain sharpening...
Thanks man....
I am thuroughly impressed and inspired. Your channel offers more than I could have expected. Well done. Thank you
I'm going to buy a Maxamet knife just so I can send it to you and see the difference between my S110V and the Maxamet
Edit: I love the fact that you have a microscope, it definitely adds depth to your videos. thoroughly impressed.
Good work. I really enjoy watching you sharpen. I also respect the fact that you're proud of your work, but not full of yourself.
Bob Snyder thanks brother
This is one of the best sharpening videos I have ever seen! Thanks! It helps so much to see the detailed tips of hand-sharpening. It truly is an art. Yes, we can all read the "how" and the theory but experience and technique make so much difference.
Those "stones" look awesome. Have to look at those.
I’m impressed... that’s amazing freehand work
Great way of explaining how this stuff works. Inspiring to see that beautiful of an edge put onto a semi-mangled blade; thanks for sharing your expertise!
Man this was helpful. That's some beautiful hand sharpening. Really nice consistency and even bevel.
I’m learning all kinds of good knowledge from these videos 👍. Thanks for taking the time. Knowing how to hone a hair whittling edge or sharpen people’s kitchen knives has got me some respect from some people . Similar to any good skill , it’s a worthwhile one to learn imo .
I appreciate the fact that you speak clearly and loudly unlike many of the knife videos I’ve seen where the presenter sounds like he’s on downers.
We are watching a true artist at work!
great walk through,with the steel..as always great to see and hear you do your thing,take care
You are a master of freehand sharpening. Your ability to sharpen precisely at speed is absolutely amazing to watch. Your results speak for themselves. I haven’t done much freehand but you are convincing me to by a cheaper fixed blade and some water stones so that I can begin to learn.
Great video, these tutorials are very well executed and explained. I'm still on the fence about purchasing Maxamet because I know I don't have the skill/tools to sharpen it.
Really a great vid!!! Great job of sharing-explaining what is going on, very appreciative, thank you.
Impressed. Freehand is an art.
Great video. You explain the steps very well.👍
Thanks homie!
Love my para 3 Maxamet. I get it shave sharp quite easily. Good stuff
Awesome! You do some great work
Damn good work!! A lot of pros won’t even touch maxamet
Jacob Dawson what? Maxamet has better edge holding and toughness, and it’s still plenty stainless. How is 110 better?
Excellent. A LOT of information in this video, BBB. It is that easy.
Thank You very much. Appreciate it.
JRCLAD Thanks man, hope it helps
As I said: It helps ¡¡¡ A LOT !!! People like You make internet worth like gold.
LOVING the saturated blue colour you showed in the end of the video ... ;)
Vesselin Georgiev yes Ooo pretty haha
Thats a great video. Very informative.
I really enjoyed. Learned so.much.
Looks really good! Thanks for the video it’s very informative
Excellent video. Learned quite a bit...
Your a beast bro. I appreciate all the tips. I’ve been debating on buying a knife with maxament. If you listen to the apostle he kinda steers you away from it. You made it look easy. Very impressive.
The apostle is overrated
Thanks so much for this vid. I ordered a Maxamet Manix 2 tonight and then watched the Apostle's vid on the steel and started freaking out. Nice to know the steel is not a dog.
Yea its like watching someone talk shit about a Ferrari because its loud, gets bad gas mileage, low storage capacity, can't comfortably seat 4 people and can't tow a trailer or go off-road. Its made to go Fast AF not that other bullshit. Thats what maxamet is, pure performance without consideration to other factors that would water it down. So enjoy, its my favorite.
@@FearNoSteel Thanks! That's quite an endorsement!
Wow, so jealous u make it look so easy. I actually just bought cheap Walmart Arkansas stone to practice sharpening my D2 civivi. I got a beautiful even edge on both sides but for some reason can't get it to apex. I've learned sharpening on worksharp precision elite learning how to get a burr and working off. Great video!
I've been thinking about doing my left hand so I can see when my edge is touching the stone like with my right coming towards me. I've got a pretty good routine with just using my right but I feel like sometimes some of my passes dont hit the apex or go a little too high but like you do I check it often and always make sure my burr comes up on one side and then the other the whole way before switching stones. And sometimes I get the burr down to nearly nothing before switching to my next stone but it doesn't really matter I've realized. I feel like I always have an issue towards the tip with having a tiny tiny burr there that I am forced to stropping it to make it go away. Maybe if I start using my left hand too I can fix it by being able to see my edge...I hope so! I have a KME and while its awesome I have switched to basically just free hand for the last year and only use my kme if I want a show piece type edge with a crazy mirror. I can get my free hand to whittle hairs and stuff but like with s110v I have an issue with the last 1/8th of an inch at the tip not being able to get my burr to go away. Damn thing! Going to just keep at it though! And now I'm thinking of getting the cbn stones for edge pro and using them like you do. Although I really like my atoma set and 3k diamind from ken schwarts
I just ordered one of these and I suck at sharpening. Thanks for this
Awesome video mate. I have a maxamet blade been a bit anxious about sharpening it.
Patrick Bateman fear not brother
Nice set up bro!
My Maxamet PM2 went 2 years. Didn't really need it but figured to work on it before it got bad. Just use the full set of diamond stones and sharpened up nicely. Here in Boston near the water it's not too bad bit I keep mine coated with edci out of an abundance of caution.
I wish you would show me as much love as you did this edge 😭😘
dead xD
My two favorite knife YT's!
Thanks' for posting this information
So satisfying 🤩🤩
Just amazing to watch... thanks bbb:)
Sharpening is a art and you Sir are painting mona lisas!!
Nice Job!
Hmm...edge trailing strokes on the stones to remove the burr..I've never done that really but maybe that will help. Holding my angle exact is key I think you said as well. Gonna try it. On every stone
So I just finished sharpening my para 3 maxamet. I was having the problems people were talking about in the beginning. After I removed enough material and exposed fresh metal I stopped having problems. Almost like it was overheated at the edge.
👌 Thanks for sharing your knowlegde. I think i will grab a second hand spyderco manix 2 i that steel
great advises ! thx a lot
Velcro also works well for a semi permanent solution for using gritomatic stones freehand. I've added couple small strips to each end of each stone so I can still read the labels. Conveniently enough, the standard width for velcro matches the width of the stones. The trick is to not use too much velcro, since the modern stuff is so strong it'll actually pull the adhesive off if you use too much. But with the right amount you can attach the stones to a larger piece of wood with an antislip thing on the bottom. Hope this helps someone.
Super great idea!! Thanks😎👍
@@user-cs3hi8zp7p hey no problem! Glad it helped.
Awesome impressive video. I have bought a set of 7 metal bonded cbn stones. But I have been using them with honing oil though and never tried to use'em as wetstones. That was interesting to find out one can use the stones as wetstones. What kind of dressing stone would you recommend to use with these cbn stones? Thanks!
Excellent job! Thanks for the vids and the explanation. Just got a Manix 2 Maxamet, but I’m nowhere near the freehand sharpener that you are.
James Covington hey man, we all gotta start somewhere, you can do it. I wasn't born a sharpener.
If you need help give me a holler.
Big Brown Bear
Thanks Brother, I appreciate that.
My respect to people, who keep manual sharpening when there are plenty of excellent sharpening systems in the market like "Profil" or Apex for instance....
This really illustrates one of the biggest issues I had with sharpening early on....not taking it far enough. Running it on one side til you think “that’s good enough” isn’t, indeed, good enough. You *really* have to get all the way down on every part of the blade, both sides, with each stone. If not, you have a really shiny looking bevel that’s either dull or goes “coarse, fine, sharp, coarse” on different parts of the edge. Super embarrassing and frustrating...
Great video. Very detailed. I made up some diamond strops, but I wasn't getting very good results (not better than green chromium oxide) until I lightened the pressure quite a bit. I'm going really light on the diamond strop now and the results are outstanding.
Thank you for the vid.
Just ordered one of them Spyderco Native 5 in maxamet micro melt,
When the edge dulls ill use my lansky and leather to get it unreliably hair tree topping
300 grit diamond
then 600 grit diamond
then 1000 grit ceramic
then leather strop with white course compound
Then paper strop with pink fine compound
If edge angle is less than centred I will not attempt to fix.
I will update when this works or I end up crying.
Heres hoping I have not jumped into the deep end since the best steel I have sharpened is 14c28n
Other that that it got scary sharp with a high polish. I don't see having problems in the future.
Awesome video. And gorgeous edge. I wish he didn’t want the 3k tho. The mirror looks nice. But it’s a big hit to the preference.
First time I’ve seen someone do that s stroke, interesting!
Great video, great explanations, thanks for this. The final result looked really absolutely great.
For me it looks that Maxamet isn‘t for the standard customer if he want‘s to do sharpening on his own. It needs a lot of experience and practice as well as some very expensive equipment.
Would you still recommend it to the „normal“ customer?
nah, just go for it
Are you an alien? Wow!! Your skills are incredible. I lost the use of my right hand and have challenges with left so I cannot sharpen knives anymore.
If you would like some business I’ll be glad to send you some. They are all high quality and supersteels though.
Anyway, great video young man. Or Alien from some other planet.;))
Thanks man I appreciate it
WOW that's amazing work man! What do you charge to sharpen a PM2
Hey Shawn, do you notice differences between Practical sharpening CBN stones and Venev CBN stones?
Thanks for your videos, you make me want to achieve the maximum sharpness!
Best from France,
Martin
WOW, great job Brother!!!! 🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾 Do you still have your Sharpening Services for the Public? I'd like to give you my business.
Do you ever use Porcelain hones instead of stroping? I used to use them a lot on my "cheap" victorinox kitchen knives and they seem to work great, but never use them on my pocket knives at it seems less precision/fine tuning.
I am not afraid to muck up a cheap kitchen blade just dragging it to keep it sharp. I was wondering if there are more precision porcelain hones that work similarly.
I am back to carrying a knife after many years without and picked up a Para3 maxamet
I use knife to cut boxes and open packages, zip ties occasionally, stuff like that, I don’t abuse my stuff really
My question to you,
What supplies should I get to maintain my steel? Do I get strop and diamond spray and strop it fairly often and then don’t have to actually sharpen it or hone it?
what edge do you think is best for my use? Toothy? If so what different microns or grits should I get?
Want to keep the edge up nice and sharp but I don’t want to get too crazy spending tons of money on minor differences , what’s best bang for my buck ?
One last thing. After my 3k Ken Schwartz diamond stone do you think the 3k naniwa diamond would be a big step up on polish or should I get the 6k? I stop my work knives at 1200 but this is just for my high end ones. The 3k leaves a similar polish to the 1200 atoma and will get better as it breaks in more. I have a chosera full size lineup and kitiyama but I want a naniwa diamond to go with my diamond setup. I bet the 3k will look great by your video
@bigbrownbear for my benchmade presidio 2 should i use diamond stones to sharpen it?
Older video, but you said "It's mostly skilz and not toolz". Truer words are hard to find. I purchased a wicked edge and have been pursuing charp. I can do paper towels no problem, but free hanging hair is eluding me. My skilz aren't there yet.
Did the cbn stone come unglued from the aluminum plate also wouldn’t the ferric chloride mess with the aluminum plate
That is awesome
I had some trouble with my pm2 as well. What worked for me was to just keep the same angle maybe 16 degrees idk. I cut out the ultra fine finishing stone and just left it at an atoma 1200 I think. It might have been a 600 plate. It’s stropped with by some jend s sprays and had been awesome since.
crf450r bullet david nice, yea just play with it to find what works, good stuff man.
Big Brown Bear your awesome man. Keep up the good work.
very cool vid
Wow, i really need to improve my freehanding
This is great info! New sub! I also just checked out your S110V vid. Question: What kind of grit would you normally finish on for an EDC knife in M390, prior to stropping? What about D2?
I've got 3" x 8" Eze-laps, 150-250-600-1200, an ultra fine 3" x 8" Spyderco ceramic, and a CrO strop. Also, a couple of water stones and a bunch of SiC paper.
Ruster Kat preference is king, also depends on the cutting job.
I prefer the middle road. An 800 grit to a 1um diamond strop.
That's my favorite.
The 3k in the video I only use on special kitchen knives or for showing off. But not what I like on my edc
Thanks for the reply!
@@FearNoSteel I always found D2 on 800 grit cuts like a beast. Anything finer and it doesn't have the bite. You make very good points about working knives vs. "show" sharpening.
A lot of times a lower grit is the best for the task at hand and will last longer.
im still new to all this, what (to all in the thread) do you think is a good start stone for diamond? I have an old DMT but wanting to replace, i was looking into venev but wanted anyone's opinion. I have a sage with maxamet and a 940-1, and a para 3 with s110v so im looking for diamond stones any advising?
Hi there. Would it make sense putting a convex edge instead of V edge? What are your thoughts?
@Big Brown Bear I have a maxamet that I would like you to sharpen to a hair whittling edge.. what is your cost/process/turn around time?
Again that's a great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge! I learn a lot thanks to you, I have a question about pressure. Can you give me a comparison when you use the 400 stone? what kind of pressure you re using? i use dmt diamond plate coarse, I was always confused about the pressure to apply. How can I know I am doing the right thing?
Francois Cressin dmt coarse you need to use light pressure or you'll strip out the diamond.
Big Brown Bear thanks BBB!
I'm having trouble getting my pm2 maxamet knife sharp, I have a dmt red fine 800 grit diamond bench stone and I can't even get it sharp what so ever.
Any tips? What stones do I need for sharpening maxamet?
Thanks
@Big Brown Bear - how do I procure your Maxamet services? I have a maxamet PM3 just like the one in this video and would love the same thing done. Thanks in advance!
What’s the nagura you’re using on the cbn plates? I’m ordering them and would like to use a nagura instead of the ferric chloride
I bought a worksharp knife and tool sharpener Ken onion edition can I sharpen maxamet with that ?
Hey Shawn, How do you re-dress the stones with compound? I had just purchased the Maxamet Manix 2! So i'm pretty stoked to get some use on it. Also, Where did you get your Diamond stones and Stropping compounds?
Semper Fi
Also, What is the difference between the Gritomatic Edge pro stones, vs the Edge pro stones on Amazon?
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M1O99H5/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A29350M8J9NDWU&psc=1
How do you sharpen near the ricoso/choil area? It baffles me that spyderco won't put a choil on their knives.
Awesome video! I’m new to sharpening and just tackled my maxamet para 3. It cuts paper like butter, but my question is, other than feeling a burr, when do I know when to go up in grit?
Look at the scratch pattern
@@FearNoSteelscratch pattern?
Just coming across this video now….do you still sharpened Maxamet? I have a brand new Para 3 and I’m wanting it to have a super solid edge to start its life.
Nice end cut block, Boos? If I ever make a video, I collect boos blocks and blades. Avoid breathing those particals in bro, exotic steels have some wicked things in them. You obviously have great attention to detail. Great video, im subbed
Boos? Welcome aboard Homie.
Ok, I'm sold. How do I reach you to sharpen my knives?
If I can sharpen a s110v on a lansky diamond, I could do maxamet yeah?
What did you use to clean these stones you said in the video,I just can't seem to catch it???
Thoughts on CBN v Diamond on S90?
Do you absolutely need diamond to sharpen Maxamet? Would the choseras be able to adequately do the trick?
What exactly does that mean if an edge is “crushed”?
you are a fucking master to get that edge apex so crisp and consistent free hand.
haha Thanks Jack.
Do you still provide these services? I need my knife sharpened and cleaned. What’s your contact info? Thanks
How can i send my knives?Just dont wanna mess with my maxamet.lol
Bbb - i wish you woukd do a freehand tutorial on free handing! I do pretty decent with stone in hand, but at a bench i cant get the feel for precise angles. Great video man!
How much do you charge for that mirror finish edge ?
factory sharpnes is 3 microns ? 6894 grit ? or ?
tnx 4 sharing ;)
How do I go about sending you a blade for sharpening?
Tips on how to find a correct angle? I get super close but I want exact
sharpie the edge and adjust
