Sharpening a Serrated Knife on Your 1x30 or Work Sharp Ken Onion Elite

I am often asked about sharpening serrated knives and how I do it. Over the last four years I have tried many different methods to sharpen them. Also I would add that some really warn serrated knives need more of a refurbishing job. So that would be a knife where the serrations are almost gone. This method is not for those knives. This is for a serrated knife that's still in good shape but has just gone dull from use. This method will also work well on a Ken Onion Elite Sharpener as it's a great tool for serrated knives always run edge trailing and I have used that as well for serrated knife. I have done a video on doing them on the Tormek. It's not one of my favorite methods but I will release that video soon so if all you have is a Tormek you can see how I do a serrated knife on it.

I use 3M Cubitron and Trizact and his conditioning best for both my 1x30 and 2x42 and Ken Onion it's the very best place to get them and once you use them you will see why.

    I do it similarly on Worksharp, however, I sharpen only the outside of serrations. And from inside, I only deburr (using narrow ceramic rods from cca grit 600 up to cca 3000). Greetings from Slovakia, central Europe.

    Well if you are really good with a C&C machine you can it's really well made and I can say its worth what he's charging, maybe I will make some sets of split belts and see if they sell. Since you can't get them any place.

    Yes and guys who are good with wood could make one out of wood it's just a cost reward thing how much time with it take to make it and are you better off just spending the $160 I will say this its extremely well made so it has not ever messed up a split for me I did a video on it before did you watch that it may give you some ideas if you decide to make it yourself the slot for the razor it dead on so that one of the best features. @@Redmaster919
