Haha! I knew the video was long, so I set my intention to set aside the time and patiently take everything in. When he started going through the entire history of mankind I was forcing myself to find it interesting, which surprisingly I think DOES help a beginner understand EXACTLY what you're trying to do when removing material to make an edge. BUUUUUUUUT - that was a little much. 😂😂. This was created in a different time when people had better attention spans, but most of the modern KZread videos I watched were the opposite - Sure they're shorter, but nowhere near as in depth. I haven't seen anything with the happy medium. Oh well. At least after watching this I'm a sharpening EXPERT!!!! Don't doubt me!! (Like I doubt myself....)

The facial expressions 🤣 on Marni as he takes us back to early man are cool that "bowl" sharpening technique was a nifty one...but when Sal said "technically our stones, being "man made" are also an "artificial" gemstone 💎 must admit my ears perked up a bit... In 10th grade I worked w Dupont as I'd raced BMX factory sponsored and had a design needed "bearings" so they gave me some Rulon (ruby injected nylon...) ones to apply to my design...sadly the bicycle was stolen so I enlisted moving on...but yeah any time I'm learning of a special composition it's interesting...

The Bob Ross of knife sharpening

thinking this was a boring "hold the knife like this and do like this" i was amazed of how informative and how good this demonstration is , glad i watched the video

Sal seems like a very mellow man. He knows his stuff that's for sure.

Sal is truly a master of the blade.

Love spiderco, im 50 and been using for about 10 years now, love my pm2 dont leave home without it, and this sharp system is best

What an incredibly informative video even beyond just the purpose of learning how to sharpen. Sal truly is revolutionary in everything he does

Extremely enjoyable - I've owned the SpyderCo for a few years and never came close to knowing its true potential. I learned a ton watching this.

Sal is a true believer in his product .. this was actually informative 👏

The main person, SAL, was extremely charismatic and gentle. The gal was wonderful; the third person added to the script. I found it wonderful. My old Spyderco system only had two holes. I IMMEDIATELY ordered the new 204 system. Thanks for a GREAT video.

Love my Sharpmaker. Works better for all my knives than anything else I've owned. I just got my first Spyderco knife, a Manix 2. The blade is scary sharp out of the box but was very impressed with how the Sharpmaker tuned up the blade. Awesome.

Mr Glesser is a man to be respected in so many ways, his ideas are an inspiration to every person who has an interest in knives.. He is one of my heroes.. 👌🔪

Dear Sal, I have a bowler derby hat with a cutting disk hidden under the brim. Can I use the Sharpmaker to sharpen my hat so it can decapitate marble statues like it did when it was new? I may also want to baton it through some firewood. Sincerely, Odd Job

Very interesting... really such a simple and logical concept... so well thought out... its not something for freehanders but for everyone else perfect!

Sal is a boss. Video straight out of 1985!

This is a great system. I've tried using stones freehand numerous times but am no good at that. Great guided system.

Fantastic product.

The man sharpening them seemed like the nicest guy lol

Update a year later .this sharpener has made my knives ,axes,machetes like a razor..Mostly I just need the brown/grey stones and that makes it sharper than factory finishes .a GREAT product and very short learning curve to use properly .You MUST do the 20 strokes as he recommends and believe me you will NOT fail.

I have a sharpener that works the same way, though not a spyderco sharp maker. I did the 20 strokes and my knives are mega sharp. I am planning on buying a sharp maker soon though, because mine can't sharpen all of the different things like a sharp maker can.

This video feels like it was done in 1990

Just ordered one
