If Mr. Smith were around today, in his prime, I could easily see him cast in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Frank Castle aka The Punisher. He would be perfect for the role of that tough, cool and bad to the bone superhero.

I can’t see how you’re angling the blade during the first stage, I can see you holding it to the right side of the sharpener, but on the very next pass, I can’t tell if you’re cantering it or holding it to the left side of the sharpener?

I gotta say, I was super skeptical about these at first. I am more of a convexed edge guy but I have this huge selection of kitchen knives that aren't as valuable as my Bark Rivers, BlackJacks and such. I just picked one of these up and at first it was very frustrating. I was using a "Good Cook" thrift store pickup to practice on. I went to a Japanese knife and had REALLLLLY good luck in half the time. I also learned to not overthink it and just let the machine do the work. Went back to the China special and, with some more work and just letting the machine do its thing, I had that also REALLLY sharp in no time. Would I ever use this on "good" knives. No. But the cheap beaters around the kitchen? Yeah. The edge that these can put in is good enough for many of the people who would view this. Good enough for a pro chef? Probably not....but, with practice and patience you can get a darn good edge really darn quick.

I never liked William Smith wherever I saw him on TV. He was too damn scary. I once saw him on an episode of the Rockford Files, a 70s TV series where he attacks Jim Rockford, James Garner. I actually felt afraid for Rockford, lol. I've read in real life he was actually a pretty nice guy. This guy had both brains and brawn.

William Smith was definitely a terror as Falconetti on Rich Man, Poor Man. His guest role on Simon & Simon where he plays an ex con in the episode Quint is out was even more menacing. His revenge was on Rick Simon who was beaten and tortured by Quint(played by Smith). That was a gruesome episode.

My first exposure to William Smith was in Rich man Poor man as a young teenager. I had never seen nor have since seen a more intimidating bad guy playing a villain on any screen be it tv or movie . Way way underrated as an actor. He should have won or at least been nominated for an Emmy but they went with the more popular actors back then. Asner, Nolte, Strauss .

Let's see if I can summarize some of his many impressive achievements and attributes outside of acting: William Simth also: Wrote a book of poetry, was an experienced horseman since childhood, competed in motocross, flew secret missions for the NSA as crew member during the Korean War, held both CIA and NSA clearances, graduated Sum Cum Laude with a Masters degree in Russian studies from UCLA where he also taught Russian, addionally, he spoke, German, French, Serbo-Croation and of course English, was a champion discus thrower at UCLA, won an Airforce boxing championship, was two time World Arm Wrestling Champion, held a Black Belt in Kenpo Karate, served as a volunteer fireman and fought California wildfires. And here I thought that he was just a great character actor and legendary movie villain. What an amazing and fascinating guy. I would love to see a theatrical movie about his life, but who would have the good looks, size, body, athleticism, screen presence, swagger and acting chops to pull all of that off? Even if you could find someone, you'd also have to find dozens of lookalikes with great acting chops to play all of his co-stars and celebrity friends and acquaintances. It seems like an impossible movie to make without an insane budget. Maybe that will challenge some young director.
@edljnehan2811 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for that he's always been my favorite. He was a superstar in life and by All Rights should have been a superstar in Hollywood and not just a character actor villain. I would have much rather seen him on the screen t h a n any old Arnold Schwarzenegger any day. He was also featured in a couple of men's fitness bodybuilding magazines in the sixties and seventies.

You do realize that any knife with a bolster, like a Henckles or a Whustof, along with knives with a protruding handle, can’t be sharpened by stone, belt, or grinder, end to end. Only flat blades end to end never have that problem. So yeah, a pull through sharpener leave’s some metal untouched, just like every sharpening method, it’s inherent to some knives. When it becomes a problem, you sand, file, or stone, it back in line, but it still isn’t sharpened to the very end, and in time, it will be an issue again.

A real sharpener knows that the bolster to the blade is a concave curve from bolster to blade, you can’t sharpen that curved part. While this video is 3 years old, and I’ve used every sharpener from a KME to a Wicked Edge, along with whet stone’s along the way. I’m using a 1X30 belt sander now, edge leading, I still contend the Chefs Choice CV15 is a great sharpener for most home cook’s! If you don’t agree, I could care less. Let’s see your video.
