    I was taught that a honing steel is corrective; it realigns the tiny imperfections on the knife's edge while not actually removing any material or sharpening. Honing will get each sharpening to last longer.

    A whetstone is defiantly the way to go. A pull through is not that great. Most whetstones come with an angle guide that allows you to hit the correct degree. One think Sam did wrong was pulling the blade towards him on the whetstone. You always use it pushing the blade away from you. That reduces the micro burrs on the edge. Finish with a leather strop and it will cut amazingly well. Watch this kzread.info/dash/bejne/i4etm7CPlMyyodo.html And, no, you do not have to spend 300 on this set. A simple 2 sided grit stone (one side 1000 and the other 6000-8000) combined with a barbers style leather strop will produce amazing results. Honing steel is used to realign the angle on a blade, not to sharpen.

    Funny... Just taught my son to sharpen with a whetstone yesterday. The stones are best, without a doubt, but do take a bit longer. A lot of the pull through sharpeners are very aggressive and can wear down your knives over time. They do take the mystery out of sharpening, but you'll buy new knives in years instead of decades.

    Honing steel is to “true” the edge and should be used before each use of the knife. The actual sharpening process should only be needed a couple to a few times a year depending on how much use it gets. I take my honing steel and and hold it vertical on my cutting board, then draw the knife down at an angle 4 times on each side, then proceed with my cutting.

    The second tool you're using is just to straighten the edge on an already sharp knife.. not to sharpen a dull knife.. Edit: And the wetstone.. you're doing it wrong and not effectively sharpening the knifes edge. Real knife sharpeners use wetstones.. It yields the best result, counting you know how to proberly use them..

    Few things in this that weren't addressed. Japanese knifes sometimes only have an edge on 1 side. If you hold the handle and look along it to the blade you'll prob see that 1 side is flat and one beveled. The beveled side has the edge. Trying to get an edge on the flat side will be a huge amount of work. This is where whetstones come into their own cos you can really just work on that 1 side. Same with steels but they're not really used on Japanese knifes. This also leads onto a potential issue with pull thru sharpeners as they'll try and put an edge on both sides. There's a pull thru whetstone called a mono sharp which does a great job of combining the 2 but as the stones are only angled 1 way, you'll only get an edge on 1 side. If that's the wrong side for your knife, like 1 of mine, it's a labour of love with the whetstone to get it back as good as new. But it lasts a while.

Get a garage sale knife and and a diamond honing stone 400/1000 watch a few tutorials and learn the stone you can sharpen most tools and knives with a stone. From there ceramic or high grit whet stone then a old leather belt for stopping. I'm self taught and keep my knives hair popping sharp. Not just shaving they make hairs jump off and I'm NOT A PRO it just takes practice. If you us carbide pull through dont use too much force it will gouge out chunks of your blade.

    "How do you sharpen a knife?" "I don't know. I never went to culinary school." "Why do you need to leave out a steak until room temperature?" "I don't know. I never went to culinary school." "Why did you drop my phone in the garbage disposal?" "I don't know. I never went to culinary school." "Have you seen my keys?" "I don't know. I never went to culinary school." "Where do babies come from?" "I don't know. I never went to culinary school." "What is the purpose of life?" "I don't know. I never went to culinary school." Works for everything. I will use that excuse from now on. Thanks!

    A nice pull through is good in a pinch or especially when beginning to learn about the sharpening process. I do agree with others, the using angle guides with stones and strops delivers better results. Especially when learning, the process is more time consuming , but as you said, keeping them sharp with regular maintenance will mean the task is not so tedious. Like you have said in other videos, it is not that you can't cook, but that you don't cook. Sharpening is a similar skill and no matter the method, requires practice!

    Hey @samthecookingguy I just wanted to drop a line and say thanks. You have made my venture into cooking for my family a far easier road. You make cooking simple and easy and enthusiasm makes me want to try your recipes. I must admit your enchiladas with the chorizo cream sauce are still my favorite thing so far but your jerk chicken definitely won the crowd and my family's 4th of July cookout. Was going to get a nice picture and send in but they got gone before I could finish grilling everything else. Anyway thank you for all you do and thanks for putting up with Max. The relationship between you two is a strong part of the reason we watch. My wife and son consider you part of the family here in Oak Hill, WV so if you ever want to do a small town America tour swing on by.

    We've got a house full of dull kitchen knives. We have a whet stone; we have two (2) honing rods and several of the "pull-throughs" and we can't sharpen our knives to save our lives.🤣🤣🤣!!! I guess we should remove our knives from the drawer(s) and keep them separated. We have a block with a bunch of fancy-looking knives but they're all dull as well. I'm tired of looking for a sharp knife to slice the meat before the grill gets going. I love your delivery: just the way you talk to the camera, "crew" and all of us. You seem really genuine and I love watching you. So does my wife. Greetings from Antioch, CA.

Hopefully I can buy a chefs knife with a part time job. Edit: its a nice balance because sam makes amazing sandwiches/burgers. Joshua makes amazing meals and babish teaches a lot of technique. I've been cooking for about 6 months now thanks to these 3 and I'm pretty decent for someones who's only fried nuggets for 20 years.

    You channel is great, and I love your recipes. But this episode should just be deleted. I'm not trying to be mean here. But I will be firm about it because everything you just said is bad advice or plain wrong. I was a classically trained, professional chef for 15 years. In every professional kitchen I have ever worked in, we sent the "kitchen" knives out to be professionally sharpened maybe once a month. Those suckers were ridden hard every day and beat to hell. Each chef and cook also had their own personal knives, which were treated much more lovingly, might get sharpened once or twice a year -- by the chef themselves. But you have to use your pull-thru after a single 4-5 hour cooking session? You are 100% doing it wrong and destroying your blades. And now you've just told your 2M+ followers to do that as well. Also, for the love of god and all that is holy, learn how to use a whetstone and a steel properly. Throw that horrible pull thru knife-runner in the garbage.
