Just learn to free hand and don't have to worry about the limitations of systems! Not to mention once you learn it will your edge quality will be better than systems and it's far more rewarding.
Does it do a load test? I have on but I'm not sure.
My Baja is making the same noise, did u fix it or is it ok to drive w it like that?
Thank you
Me looking at my KME smiling because i never have to worry about any of those problems and because the accessories for scissors and broadheads and small blades/serrations dont cost a arm and a leg.
I love my Edge Pro. It even handles my Paramilitary 110 (after market CHEAP diamond stones). Still, there is that I love it so much I look at other systems in hopes of even better. The Wicked Edge caught my eye. However, information from too many sources and who repeated the same problems stopped me from the INITIAL investment. They say, buy a good tool and you'll only cry once. If true, the Wicked Edge yet has far to go before being at the cry once place. That it needs me to spend far more than what the Edge Pro cost me to cover all my blades and is still limited keeps me at the stop mark. And there is that the, as of this writing, flagship version has issues too, so a cheaper version would be better for many of us. Meanwhile, the Wicked Edge did inspire me to build my own sharpener. Fortunately, I have a lot of materials and equipment, so the rods (minus the ten dollar swivels), scrap aluminum for mounts, composite like you'd find on a science lab table, a lot of Plexi and jig tracks and knobs are making it possible. The only thing mine has in common with the WE is, the rods and stones. Knives are held via the handles, instead of the blades. The blades rest on a removable/replaceable rod. Even at 10 or 12 degrees, the rod, under the blade, doesn't fight with the stones. Stones are just more composite or hardwood with leather, glass and diamond plates mounted (drilled using a pen vice used for setting up turned pens). All dimensioned the same, to avoid complications. Assuring the blade is 90 to the base is as simple as a light shined down the blade, producing shadows, the position of which can be changed by way of loosening the self centering vice (dowel jig or vice). IF need be, the vice bed can be raised and the support pole changed to correspond with increased height. Everything is tool less. So far, so good. [I really should have taken some geometry classes and such ;) ]
The flat grind problem could have been solved if the tighteners were at the bottom [of the entire clamp] and pushing the top together (instead of pulling the clamp tight). Hell, you could have both choices. The former would change the angle of the clamp by widening the bottom of the clamp, altering the angle at which the blade is held.
Huh… well this video is a few years old but I just wanted to comment that it was helpful to me. It looks like Parallels will even work for M series chips. Awesome!
I put that engine in my 1830. Case skid steer so far so good
And you will work for that
I just bought the same motor for mine. Did it bolt right up the same as the Onan?
I got the wicked edge go and my knife won't go anywhere after clamping it down
Where did you buy the filter?

I like my Edge Pro Apex 4. No clamps and you can sharpen any size of blade. $285.
Hi Bro! You made the best choice to replace Wicked Edge with TSprof. Why? Because, both Wicked Edge and other many systems, such as Work Sharp Precision Adjust and others that are made of plastic or that contain plastic components or other fragile, elastic, flammable materials, are a mess and no matter what the manufacturers promise, they are just dust in the eye. Because of the plastics, these systems are not stable, they are not fixed, they are not balanced, they buckle, they produce eccentric movements and vibrations, swing, they are flexible, which affects the sharpening angle, not visibly, but physically. In addition, the plastic loses its proportions and properties, as it wears out quickly, grinds, the holes widen and become unstable, and for a perfect sharpening we need a perfect support in which the angle remains stable, fixed, stiff. From absolutely all the systems I tried, being many in number, I can say that almost all of these which are better performing, only two are truly true systems with the best performances. TSprof and Hapstone. Both are built entirely of metal, with a very solid and resistant structure, high precision, both are very stable, very balanced, very well anchored, very well centered, very rigid, with a very well designed angle adjustment system, gear rail, magnetic, etc., and in addition to all this, both also offer the possibility of customization with a wide range of different clamps, which allows sharpening any knife, with any kind of blade starting from the razor blade to the axe. They have a lot of accessories, such as stone holders, all very good, completely metal or aluminum, and Hapstone also have a very elegant and beautiful design especially at stone holders. I was a little more detailed, for those who want to purchase a good and high-performance sharpening system, but it is difficult to decide which one, as there are many. A good example is you, and your experience should be taken into account. Be happy and enjoy your new system
Where is part 2😂
using worksharp system for my chef knives only issue i have its a bit slow for hardened steel .cant use 10 deg angle as it hits the jaws but apart from that does ok job
Plus, factor in the clamp isn't wide enough to accommodate longer blades which will result in bending towards the ends and proprietary stones. I think tsprof and hapstone are the top contenders here. Tsprof seems the best designed but accessories are expensive and there's the Russia thing with the war.
My brother u have helped so many people , thank u
The cartridge from the Pilot G-2 fits perfectly.
Glad I bought the TS Prof. Half the price (especially on Black Friday) and bought a 8 more quality stones and the center clamp. The high dollar proprietary WE Stones were too much for me to swallow. I have a Tormek 800 with all the bells and whistles but wanted something I could go out to the garage and not have to drag out and dump water into but just sit on the workbench and take 3 mins to touch up a kitchen knife for my wife.
Get yourself a worksharp ken onion pro……. Jobs done…..
I intentionally destroyed my wicked edge sharpening system because I was so fed up with that company's greedy ways. (I could have sold it of course, but I didn't want to foster other people using their overpriced products). My loving wife bought me an edge pro apex to replace it with, and I like it much better. Thank you for sharing some of your valuable time with me. All glory to the risen Lord Jesus Christ, and no glory to us whatsoever!
😳 "PromoSM"
Any part 2 I’m working on the same thing
I had my computer with all the footage crash on me, and I lost the part where I finished it, but I did finish the project. I'll make another video about the project and try to answer the questions about the machine that might help during your project. Sorry about that!
What filter do I need for it. I just replaced it …. Just wondering
The instructions clearly say to first lightly tighten the top screw, followed by a more firm tightening of the bottom screw.
I’m in the market for a sharper… you said the price of $420 just as I was puffing on a J. It’s a sign…
Tormek make an adapter that clamps the handle not the blade so gives you another option for smaller knives or hollow ground blades
Ive been saying since i bought and sold 3 months later my wicked edge in 2017. Regardless of price, even the nicer cam clamp, i think the kme is just a better sharpeniing system. I have a tsprof on the way, im gonna make content about it on my broom blades channel. But i seriously think it is one of my biggest purchase regrets ever in the knife hobby/industry.
Flat grind AND a DISTAL TAPER on that Spyderco right?
Maybe there's something wrong with my brain but I just love the sound of a fluttering wastegate. Everyone says it sounds like shit but I'm still getting one when i get a Subie someday.
c'est toi qui travail mal et pas l'outil ,,,,
I also sold my Wicked Edge (Gen 3 Pro) and got a TSProf for the same reasons you had. It's true that you can "solve" or workaround the WE issues but why should I have to spend all that additional money after spending $1000+. Hope you're still having fun with your TSProf
Thanks for this eye-opener!
I would probably never buy a guided knife sharpener with only one attachment point. No matter how well they could have made than clamp, it's only one clamp. I also went with the TSProf. I feel like nothing will ever bend out of shape and it accepts a variety of stones.
Why did you post this😭
Exactly the information I was looking for, thank you for saving me a ton of wasted money on a WE. Looks like I'll be shopping for a TSProf soon.
Me whipin down the street in rancher with a exhaust that sounds like this lol
I got a WE with pro-pack upgrade. I was thinking about getting the clamp upgrade you have, but thank you for reminding me about their BS business model. It's a money pit. Kind of like Apple and all of the countless dongles/adapters you need to make stuff work.
The revs sound like Donald Duck lol
Straight pipe!
That thing is a nightmare. I'll stick with my KME. Thanks for the video!
Seams the wicked edge is a chef knife sharpener
Well I have so much to tell you, but in short your just wrong about a few points. Point one when sharpening full flat grind(Spyderco knives) you must place the knife bolster in the clamp not the blade itself. This area is usually flat. I like to put my Spyderco Manix 2 on the bolster where the blade steel is normally shown. CPMS30V M390 should be were you put it. Now with Microteach Knives they are made with a very high angle usually over 24 to 26 degrees. when placing them in the wicked edge if its a double edge version you must use something as a shim. I use soft leather. When you shim the knife and get the angle to the appropriate degree you will find that its rather easy to sharpen. There is one gripe I do have. That is that on heavy blades I have made a brace for the handle because of slippage. This only happens on the smaller systems or with very large blades.
You need to tighten both screws on that clamp, too first then the bottom. That knife won’t move at all
The first knife you tried to tighten in the vise. You didn't tighten the bottom screw of the clamp. That is totally misleading. What a joke of a review.
Wicked edge is for kitchen knives. Right?
Got this couple of weeks ago when the truck had it on sale. Love how small it is because it fits in tight places.
How much time on the meter before you recovered it
Don't know about those filters. They look like a pain. Potentially smelly. No thanks. Why would anyone buy this???
