FIRST KNIFE SHARPENING
- START WITH A SIMPLE "CHEAPIE" PARING KNIFE (This is very important. Do not start with a "nice knife.")
- Use a table or firm surface to work on. (No "freehanding.")
- Do it just like you see in this video.
RECAP:
- TURN THE TOOL, (rather than trying to align the angle yourself.)
- Control the downward pressure with your thumb.
-
Finish the edge with the Side Knife Guide.

WARNING
- Some knives are so dull they are almost impossible to sharpen.
- "Tough steel" knives can also be very difficult, so practice on an easier knife first.
- Inexpensive stainless steel knives are the easiest to start with, (like in this video.)
SHARPENING A "TOUGH STEEL" KNIFE
High Alloy knives, (such as Benchmade, Spyderco, Cold Steel, Kershaw, and
