Nice video but one suggestion. Set your camera higher, closer and angled downward to obtain a better view. Your arms were level with the knife so it completely obscured the knife sharpening process. Your narration and tips were excellent.

Great video! I sharpen my blades at about a 17 degree angle, right behind the top of the 10" wheel I use. It's where the belt is very stiff. I also run the belt towards me. All the old timers did it that way. You kids are afraid of the belt running towards you! LOL You always make sure your belt doesn't have any nicks and it works fine. You are barely touching the belt like you said anyway, so it's not going to dig into the belt as long as your belt is good. I grind the primary hollow grinds with the edge up and the belt running towards me, (Belt running down) using my 10" wheel as well. I forget why the old guys said to do it that way. I think it's so you get a crisp line for the hollow grind. I do buff with the cutting edge down because my wheel is not stiff enough and you don't want the buffer to grab the blade! I do have a leather belt that I just remembered. I will try your method. I'm not stubborn enough to keep an open mind. I still learn something new every day, after 55 years of being a self taught machinist, that has run a very successful manufacturing business for 43 years. I see your T shirt says Peru, IN. I'm near Chicago Il., in New Lenox, IL. Your 150 miles from me. Do you ever come this way on I-80? I'd love for you to stop over. See if you can find me on Facebook. I'd like to show you my knives.

You said you are putting a convex edge on the knife, but it looks to me like you are putting a slightly concave edge on it…your platen is bowed out like a wheel. To get a convex edge you would need a slightly slack belt. Am I missing something?
@TheSharpeningGuyАй бұрын
If I said that (I did not rewatch the video), then I misspoke. I was probably trying to say I was using a convex platen, not that it would produce a convex edge.

Can you possibly recommend anyone that is trustworthy to sharpen a couple pocket knives that were passed down to me from my dad and an older mora that was my moms dads? I was gonna go with someone local to me here in eugene oregon, but sadly when i tried to go see him i found out he had some health problems and has sadly had to give up sharpening to focus on his health i cant complain because thats a very good reason.

Great video, thanks for sharing Matt! It's pretty common to see Shuns all chipped up, and it's great to see someone who's thinning out behind the primary bevel as a result of that much stock removal. I would also like to see & hear more on your thoughts and processes regarding the thinning and subsequent polish to restore the knife afterwards.
