Like so many other things sharpening is an art. There is the shape of the bevel, flat convex or concave. Dry, honing oil, which honing oil of water all effect the final edge. How sharp do you need? How quickly do you need to sharpen? Do you sharpen one knife or several at the same time? I use diamond hones. Like sandpaper they dull over time and actually work as if a finer grit than when new. That is true of all honing stones.

Trevor Lee this is probably one of the best KZread channels IMO.

Great video. I love the delivery and timing, and reading the actual instructions is illuminating and maybe unintentionally humorous. Having been a sharpener for a long time, I’m very impressed at your whetstone results. Normally proficiency with a naked stone takes a lot of time and care. The Lansky is surely the most storied and venerable of the devices you tested, they’ve withstood the test of time and have been the gold standard of the consumer bench sharpeners for many decades. Devices like the Lansky and the Wicked are all about controlling the variables of sharpening that make it difficult - you can get a sharp edge on almost anything, but a consistent edge is more difficult, and a full razor edge that effortlessly strips the hair from your forearm or cleaves tendons from bone is very difficult to achieve with simple stones without a lot of practice. Controlling the variables makes it much easier. My gas with the $900 Wicked is that although you can get reproducible results with it on kitchen knives and other such edges, it’s not versatile - there are many tools in the workshop that require an edge, which makes a sharpener like the Tormek - which can not only put a mirror edge on a kitchen knife, but also on a plane iron, a bowl gouge, scissors, an axe head, and pretty much every other edged tool - a far better investment. Durability of the edge is all about the bevel angles and the composition of the material of which the blade is made. It has little to do with the sharpener, other than the ease at which one can produce a given angle. Shallower angles can produce a far sharper edge, but are not as durable as deep angles.

Some of these sharpeners can only put one kind of angle on the blade, so I think the durability test makes sense.

I know you've done 3 of these now, but one thing that hadn't been taken into consideration is the amount of time it takes to sharpen these. I have the full Lansky diamond set, but it just takes so long for each knife. A full knife block would take a full day. Would love a showdown between some different "automatic" or quick/easy options.

You shouldn’t need to do a full sharpen on any particular knife very often if you consistently use a steel. I’m a professional chef, I spend 12 a day with my knives and I don’t do a full sharpen (with stones) except maybe once a month. I have probably 5 knives that get used all day. Use a good steel and it’ll straighten out your edge as it looses it sharpness. Best Regards

Not to mention how he only used 1000 grit. People who sharpen knives with whetstones generally go to 6000+ (generally starting at around 1000 and working up), which completely makes a joke of the rest of the competition in this video (excluding the last two extremely expensive products, which are literally just a whetstone with a guide, which isn't needed if you can hold even remotely steady). It doesn't even take that much practice to get good at it, either. I bought a set for like $45 and it only took me watching 2 short KZread videos and 2 tries to get pretty good at it.

This could be another factor involved: I remember him saying in some of his earlier videos that his goal was to present the viewer with all the test information and let them make the final decision of which product was best. In many cases there could still be some subjectivity in establishing a final ranking. With all the work he goes through to make tests as uniform as possible, I’m sure he doesn’t want any mark against his credibility by making a questionable ranking decision. With all that to say, yeah final charts would still be nice.

Yes and no. Ive used a few of these different systems and higher end one. The wicked Edge once set up is pretty easy. Lansky can be finicky since it only has the 4 angles so to adjust to match your Sharpie you need to loosen the blade and move it out or in more. Once you know the system is can be done relatively quick. I can get a dull knife to laser sharp on the kme in about 20min. Kme and wicked Edge both have tons of tutorials and Facebook groups dedicated to their use.

I've used the Lansky sharpener for years. After a bunch of reviews, articles, research, etc. on the Wicked Edge I bought one, ~$250 kit. The Wicked Edge is good, but your right, the Lansky is by far the best deal, it does a great job for any price. The Wicked Edge is systematically/consistently better, but not 4x better-- more consistent and a 15% better edge. What is missing from your analysis is skill. Once you build skill with any of these tools your edges get better and better.

The issue with the lansky is that the abrasives used are shitty, you're also going to have a big change in angle the further away from center you get. The wicked edge is the most fool proof and the edge pro is the most versatile and both are available with shapton pro stones.
