Great video. The system is not a bad starting point for any "Knife Guy". The bulk of my carry knives are in the $150 - $250 range, having a workable sharpening solution is a must. 1. Picked up a KME as a starting point 2. Next Work Sharp Ken Onion, with blade grinding attachment 3. Down the 3 x 8 bench stones rabbit hole 4. Picked up the TSPROF Blitz 360 5. Finally got the TSOROF K03 If I had to limit myself the 2 methods... 1. TSPROF K03 and 2. Bench stones. I like to sharpen as much as buying new gear.. Thanks for the video.

You guessed right Jared.😜 I'm already designing my Leading Edge stone holder for the Professional Precision Adjust. Gritomatic will stock them when I'm done. I'll also work on a scissors sharpening attachment and a LED light attachment next...

Jared I hope you publish videos when and if anyone makes an aftermarket attachment for non proprietary stones since you will likely find out way before the rest of us. Great video.

I just got the notification today that my pro system has shipped! I'm excited. I'm not a huge knife guy but my knives have one job and if they can't do that they're a waste of everything. I've worn out 6 or 7 Lansky clamps over the decades, and I got pretty good with those, but having a system several steps above that is going to be great.

You're so right about the after markets with the precision adjust. I got the 4 inch hapstone holder and it opens up the system. Also, I bought the support piece for the jaw section. Do not overlook this. If you have a worksharp precision adjust, you need that support piece.

Very nice video Jerad. I will definitely be picking one of these up. The only thing that I want to add is that the tilt feature is also for when you're using the support base so you don't have to remove it to flip the knife.

Been looking to level up from KME and think this is it thanks for video Neeves, well done !

Thanks Jared for the video. I'm really excited to get this one.

Thanks Jared, I am just barely good at sharpening knives and have the regular precision adjust and am kinda wishy washy on about upgrading to a better system or just pay someone else to sharpen my knives, I think I will get this and spend some time learning how to get better. I was talking with my dad about how I can get my knives sharp but the edge doesn't look pretty and he reminded me that Rome wasn't built in a day. I see all of the knife youtubers with their amazing looking edges and I hope to get there some day. Practice is the key thing I have to work on. Your channel has been a great help so far. Thanks again!

I can't wait for the fixed angle tips and tricks. I have something wrong with my hands where I shake really bad, so I can't free hand sharpen. Love your videos, bro! Been watching for quite a while.

Great review - I suspect a little two-sided tape and aftermarket stones will work just fine on this beast ... a bit of drilling and some rare earth magnets should cure the weak magnet thing ... would be pretty easy to set up a new rod and holder from some spare rod material laying around the workshop - a fun project for sure

Hobbyist knife maker and free hand sharpener here. My wife just bought me this for Christmas. Not sure how much use I'll get out of it, but I think I'll find it useful for setting my first initial bevels on small knives. That way I'll know they're basically near perfect starting out. ...I hope.

Bro, this video is awesome. I love the new formula you've been using. A huge level up.

Been waiting on this video and no better person to review this product. Look forward to the sharpening video .

Great video. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and found it VERY informative 👍

wow you answered every question that i had about it. well done .

Another well done video!! I like this system very much, the comps to tsprof is spot on, with thr kme ehh not so much. I had a kme back in day, and this blows it away. First you need mention that the jaws can accommodate 1/4 " spines, this is a big deal, kme can't. Then throw in the magnetized table, you have the best of both worlds in one system. I agree 100% after market stone carrier will make this a true beast and unleash its full potential. But with the current military conflict I'm finding it very difficult to get supplies from either tsprof or hapstone/ gritomatic and the later IMHO made thr best after market stone carrier for the original precision adjust. In closing, another well presented video.

Thanks for the review! A couple of notes on the KME price comparison. As far as I know, the base for the KME is still extra, $25, and it only comes with four hones.

Thank you for this video, I've got the old pro system and have thought about getting this one

Ive heard good things about the edge pro system and the price ranged from $150-$300 depeing on the option. It takes 1" 6" stones and you can use after market stones

I just ordered, Jared you’ve been very helpful in my quest for better blades. I am skilled with them, just.. never knew how to maintain. Kind of like the race at driver who doesn’t know anything other than how to drive 😂

I recently got the bog standard basic precision adjust and for the most part very happy with results I get from it. I just cant justify the price difference with the new system unfortunately.

I just got mine for Christmas and i love it, i just wish it came with a couple finer stones like a 1000 and 1200 and

Nice system and a good upgrade from the original, like you said there will be aftermarket stone holders out for these in no time. Nice having the magnetic base for pen knives but a bit of a missed opportunity as they could have added scissor sharpening as well. Im quite happy with the original system, but I've invested in some aftermarket parts and stones to increase the quality of sharpening. Hard to choose between this one and ther other ones on the market when looking at the price tag as there are great systems in this price range. Thanks for the great vid and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable

What are other systems in this range that are equivalent in features?

My wife just bought me one for Christmas and I love it, it's such great improvement over the old one and the old one was good for the money, if i could change anything about I'd like a little wider stones and some finer grits beyond 800, i also think they could have done better with the clamp, I would have liked to see a double clamping system like you see on the TS Prof, they could have had it snap in just the way it does but have it longer with bigger clamps, i feel like they could still use the plastic tightening wheels on each side to tighten it down, since you have more reach with the stones on this unit it would make sharpening larger knives easier and I feel they would clamp in better too, I know that would add to the price of the overall unit but they could always release something like that down the road, either way i still love it, maybe other people think those ideas are stupid. Just my thoughts and opinions

Great honest review. Bought the warthog multi edge just prior to this Work Sharp PA release and for the money I think the warthog was right choice. As its also portable and with a simple mod I can also use whet stones.

Great tip on the tape to remove the metal shavings. I was going with an old paint brush.

Great review of this system. I went from Lansky to the precision adjust elite so this seems like it will be a good natural upgrade. However, I'd like to find a system that would also touch up my Tungsten blades and I wished there were even finer grit stones available for this system.

Appreciate your review. After seeing it, I purchased it. Thank you.

yes, definately worth it. I love it, especially when you use lapping paper. When using the lapping paper, the edge gets scary sharp and very polished

Great video had been considering the original system for some time glad I waited. Does this system come with storage/case?

This is awesome knife sharpening tool. Worth every penny. I sharpen my wustouf shun and bob kramer knives.

I’m happy with my original work sharp. After saying this I did get the 4” stones and holder plus a aftermarket support brace. I am going to get the 1200 grit. I do have to clean the strop and apply the jewelers compound. Otherwise this does have some mundane features I like but not enough to justify a purchase

Looking for a guy like you to help teach me the ins and outs! Keep it coming.

2:26 the stone holder/guide should be double or triple sided so you can just rotate it to different grits… may not be as comfortable to hold but it’d be faster than reattaching every grit change.

The Polish distributor of the Work Sharp products also sells simple clamp base, which I got right away.

Fortunately, like I mentioned, I feel pretty competent in freehand sharpening and this was enough to get pretty much all my pocket knives hair whittling sharp (with some help from various strops ;) ).

I was hoping you would check this one out. I really like the base for the small blades !!!

From the looks of the stone attachment, I think we would soon see a lot of aftermarket stones and strops targeting the WS Pro PA.

Thanks for the review, I have the previous model and can't stand that the blade clamp play (unstable), so I like that they addressed that. Does it come with an actual case or just the box? or has anyone made a case for it?

I bought an adapter for other stones. Because i have a lot of higher grits. Thanks for the video

I would also guess that the way the clamp clips in, it allows for worksharp to introduce additional clamps. They could also make a rod and clamp that would take the other stones.

Too late, already ordered the TSPROF kadet pro and coming Wednesday. Anyway I prefer the machined aluminum which should last a lifetime. One of those cry now than cry later. Enjoy your video, keep up the good work 👏

Masterful. Top ta bottom. Its better than 90% of content or ads. Somebody is gonna snatch ya up and hand ya a briefcase full of chedder to do this very thing. And ya tell them…ya run the show…..Because your instincts are stellar. Great piece of work.

I have the kme now and use venev scorpion stones along with a few strops. I have since switched to a large paddle strop so if I can use my current stones with it then I will consider it once there are some aftermarket stone holder parts as mine are 4 inch stones for the kme

I may have been just not used to it or I hadn’t got my technique down but it seemed to leave a pretty pronounced heel on my knives . I will say the edges were pretty good . I ended up giving it to a buddy in a trade for some old knives he had . I personally prefer the gatco sharpening system or my trusty dmt aligner for the most part as far as systems go but since I’ve mastered freehand on stones and sandpaper my systems di t see a lot of use anymore . Over all the worksharp is a good system especially at its price although it’s gone up in the last few years one could definitely do worse

I really like my low dollar version. Recurve stones would be nice.

I hope you have the time to answer my question. I don't know how to sharpen, our kitchen knives are in much need of sharpening or replacement so that would be my primary usage although I do have folders and slip joints. I'd been considering the Wicked Edge as that seemed simple to use and perform well however it's very cost-prohibitive. If you have experience with Wicked Edge would you shed some comparison with this system? Thanks for your consideration.

Great review brother. $300 is a lot for that system. 😳

I have the precision adjust and to stop the wobble I put a board under the clamp it’s ten times better with something holding it just like the slider that goes under that clamp

Is there any reason why the video is blanked out (black screen) from about 3:17 to 3:32? It's when you are putting the extra large knife in the holder, I believe. Thanks again for your great review!

im gonna try this thing out. i been holding back on buying it because a few years ago i bought the ken onion belt sharpener everyone on KZread said was great, the thing was a total piece of crap i sent back inside 60 minutes of owning it.

My question is is their really a need to shapen pen blades over a wider system to accomodate longer blades instead?

What if you need to sharpen a full hollow grind or a full flat ground blade? Does any system available have attachments or something where you can get those sharp?

QUESTIONs: I have always used Arkansas oil stones free hand and have no experience with using diamond. [1] Should oil be used with a diamond 'stone'? I am considering buying this system to use with my Wusthof Classic Ikon kitchen knives ( I would think powered belts could quickly ruin a good knife ). [2] Is this an excellent choice or should I consider something different to obtain an accurate razor edge with reasonable effort ? Oh yeah, nice informative video, thank you.

Gotta buy one of these idk if i should get a wicked edge or a tsprof kadet i bought a chaves today whats your opinion of those i know theyre made by reate but just wondering your thoughts ill send it to you for you to do a video on it if you want when it gets here

so the stone holder i have for the precision adjust wont fit this new one? i already have the Dog diamond stones i could use on this system the precision adjust is ok but like you said ya had to buy a bunch of attachments to make it worth it at all.

What knife is that in the beginning when you demo the magnet system? I love small thin knives

Jerad, thank you for the video I new from your response when I p.m. due on Instagram that you were going to like this, not thrilled about the two negatives that you said , then, again, I am not totally a perfectionist, and I’m sure this knife sharpener, as is what serve me extremely well . Thanks again for the video. Much appreciated.

For $300 they REALLY should have gone with the standard 1x6" stone instead of trying to "lock" people into their proprietary stones. Another big flaw IMO is the fact you still need the clamp brace. I bought a $100 sharpener from China (Toohr #3) that doesn't have that problem and has more features. We all know somebody is going to get badly cut trying to remove or replace the brace. You can buy the base precision adjust unit, a 6" stone holder and still have over $200 left over for new stones and accessories. I think that is going to be what a lot of sharpeners are going to be thinking because as you mentioned with a stone holder you are into it for $330~ and still need stones, at that price Tsprof starts looking VERY attractive, even more so since they will soon be introducing their newest entry level sharpener.

I am in the market for a new sharpening system, and I am curious what the new TSPROF entry level system is going to be, or called. Do you know yet? I was almost sold on buying a TSPROF Kadet Pro for $468... and it just seems like a much better built system than this Work Sharp for $300. I know I'll still have to add stones to that, but even if I just rode out the "Optimal Diamonds" until I saved up for some better ones, I think I'd be better off in the long run. I don't do any pro sharpening, just do ktichen knives for myself, pocket knives for friends and family and whatnot. So waiting on the entry level TSPROF if I can find some information, may be suitable as well.

Hi there Quick question what would you recommend to sharpen a ceramic stone with the work sharp pro. Thanks in advance, I shared your video with friends.

Couldnt you use the same stone holders as the old one but just run a drill bit through it to accommodate the thicker rod on the new one?

Stoneholder already exists I have one for my precision adjust, unless the rod is a different size? EDIT : finished watching the video, well done neeves you didn't miss it. Well that sucks pretty not happy about this one from worksharp I would have definitely bought if I could use my dog stones

So the 6 inch holder from hapstone is the one you got right?

If not those then use my neevesknives store link to search for Atoma 1x6 stones, now if you want to polish or if you want the stones on top of the ones from work sharp get the Venev centaur stones from hapstone link, 1x6 inch, you could get by with the 240/400 and the 800/1200, that is basically a 600 1200 3500 and 5000 grit becausethey are double sided. Really all you would need if you got the venev is one reprofiling stone like an atoma 140, or a 100 start. But you can get away with the plates you have from ws

i need to make time to learn/practice sharpening!

How thick of a knife would this unit be able to clamp on? And how long of a knife would it be able to sharp?

when u making a tips video for this? i just bought it and aside from basic knowledge on sharpening knives I really have no clue on the correct process.

It's been a while since this came out, are aftermarket attachments available yet?

Would you recommend this for Japanese kitchen knives that have angles of 9-12 degrees?

I'm not sure I like the price, but the fact that it has the magnetic holder for small knives is kind of a necessity for me because I mostly carry small 2 blade pen knives that a lot of people would consider too small. One of my all time favorite knives is the Buck 305 lancer which I currently have 6 variants of, and I've had trouble finding an adjustable guided system that works with them. They all use a clamp which is too big, and you'll just grind away at the clamp. Ideally I'd like to see some kind of very thin low profile clamp, but I still may have to consider this.

Do your stones sit perfectly flush with the handle? Mine are sitting flush on one end and slightly raised on the other and I'm not sure if it's just the magnet being closer to one side, or the stones I've got are warped.

And I understand it because they are a business and money is there goal so it's important for them to advertise, however it's in your best interest to watch it on a channel you trust because alot of people have friends or connections with the companies including myself however I try to hold myself to a standard of no bs and being brutally honest which they know I will do, also imho I think it's important to know and have an understanding of Sharpening to test a sharpener which I do specialize in, however I still am subject to make mistakes as I most definitely have Many times, even with this particular video I originally made a huge error and had to take down my first video that would have most likely done 5× as good if I left it up but I wasn't willing to let my mistake live on so I corrected it and re uploaded it.

Do you recommend this sharpener for kitchen knives?

WS says to use these stones dry. Do you agree? I've always lubricated my diamond stones. I'm not sure why they say not to for these??

I can actually get a Mirror Polish with this. Pretty easily. I was even able to get a Mirror Polish with the older version of this. Albeit, it takes a bit more stropping and a bit more ceramic action, but it’s definitely possible. From my experience. And this is NOT me flexing, I know for a god given fact you’re a FAR more experienced and superior knife sharpener. It’s not even close😂, I just thought I’d add some feedback to consider.

3:03 if you understand geometry… you know the sharpening angle changes along the length of the blade because the distance changes from tip to tang. Because of this, it’s important that the blade be mounted exactly the same for every subsequent sharpening - or you’ll be reestablishing a micro angle change

I'd rather have a table system than a clamp system any day. So much more versatile with the various blade shapes and designs. Edge pro is excellent but some hapstone models are an upgrade over it. I'd never get a worksharp ever again. How much of that thing is plastic? I do have a ken onion grinder and regret it.

Just wondering why you never include Wicked Edge or review them. Although expensive, they are worth the price.
