Top this....

My favourite was the little 'don't overheat' disclaimer with the fire animation :thumb

Ummm....

 

I'm surprised he didn't spell vise with a "c".

 

wow i thougth i woud joke about this but dam. love the 45 degree angle set at first then the ceramic at what has to be 60 per side. NUTZ i have nothing even close for this

 

The sharpening left an impression, but the video editing...wow!

 

Fantastic video!

 

If that is a portable vise, I'd hate to see the shop model. But it is clearly labeled "portable vise" so I learn something new every day. Each day I am exposed to new artisans who make my failings clear. Wonder if he does mail order?

 

where can i buy it me of them portable vises

 

That had to be a special sand paper, designed to not abrade the blade faces... just hitting the bevel.

 

Wow, I guess I've really been going about it wrong all these years

 

So, could you chuck a chainsaw in that portable vise and knock out a custom handle???

 

Is there any other way???

I have a chain saw... And a vise. though not a portable one like his...

 

Ok let's top that. At 4:45 we get to see some serious chopping.

 

So after watching the first video, I have one side of my 240mm Hiromoto AS gyuto ground. It's a B&B group buy knife that Dave thinned and etched. I'm trying to make it symmetrical now. I'm really starting to wonder how I'm going to get these deep scratches out of the blade and how long it will take to strop the chips out of the edge. This will also be my first re-handle job. I'll follow up with some photos soon.



























I kid! I kid!

 

i use that same method on celery

 

LOL!

 

I wonder what mental math was used to determine using sand paper AFTER the ceramic rod? That might work for a beater machete tho as I use a grinder to sharpen my chipping gun chisels.

 

Love it!
Nice finds!
