@@southerncastin7092 absolutely! It does a great job on filet knives, kitchen knives, and also pocket knives. It comes with a double clamp set-up and that works really well for larger knives like kitchen and filet knives. You can also set it up in a single clamp configuration for pocket knives and smaller knives. I have it set up in the single clamp configuration for this video. It comes with the ability to be set up in both configurations without having to buy anything extra. Its a great system!

@@samsonedges Okay, im thinkin about getting the precision control plus KME sharpener as it can sharpen at a lower angle than the others. I think that is the one you use. Appreciate it man! I am just waiting till they come back in stock now :(. I ordered myself a KME axe sharpener so I am excited for that

@southerncastin7092 they're definitely worth it! The precision control plus is the system in the video here. Its a beast of a system. The KME axe sharpener is great sharpener as well. I have a few UA-cam shorts with my hults bruk axe that was sharpened on the axe sharpener.

@@Knifeguyyy thank ya sir! Only took a couple minutes too! KME FTW!

@@kennywheelus6857 I'm not a huge fan of the new design, but they're not completely trash like some make it out to be. Ive cut coat hanger wire, wood screws, nails, and some dog cable with no issues with my arc. Ive heard there was a heat treat issue with some of the first batches but supposedly they've fixed that. Idk how true that is, but that's what I've heard. I bought mine when the released and haven't had any issues with it. The arc is a beast.

@samsonedges , right exactly,I got mine last December after they started locking into the matter,I've not had any issues with mine either,been a great tool so far,I love it

@@prestong93 you can't go wrong with either in my opinion. I have both and love them both. If I had to choose and could only have one, I'd go with the precision control plus. The new features on the new system are awesome.

@ thank you,they are out of stock now. I Have a few good knives that can’t be used too dull to do anything. Might as well bite the bullet and get one when they are back in. I was looking at the emulsions. Correct me if I’m wrong but the diamond and cbn emulsions they offer is basically the same thing?And the lapping film is just a budget version of the emulsions with strop? I hope to see more of your videos soon they are very informative!

@@Edcreviewer I left this edge pretty coarse. I sharpened it to 600 grit and then stropped minimally to remove the burr. It has plenty of bite. Ive used this edge progression for years on many different steel types and it has proven to be a really solid progression.

@@tonyeden8381 thank ya thank ya! The hairs on my arm got so scared of the edge that they just jumped off 😂

@ Hahahaha………wouldn’t you faced with a diamond razor edge ?

​@@tonyeden8381can't argue with you there 😂

@@Knifeguyyy thanks brotha! This knaf has been a good'n! I'm sure it aint as sharp as it came to me, but it'll do!

@@MrEric0822 appreciate it! Thank you for the comment and the view. Appreciate the request as well.

Yessir! Diamond emulsions really do the trick!

Thats the plan hopefully! I want to do more long form content. Anything in particular you're looking to see?

@ Just clamp a knife and go to work. You will cover all the relevant topics as they arise when you are sharpening different knives.

@@MrEric0822 sounds good! I've been wanting to do a full sharpening session using the new Precision Control Plus. I'll have to see what I can drum up.

@ Yeah, IMO I would use the KME as your instrument, but it’s secondary to your sharpening expertise. I don’t think you should be doing KME instruction videos per se; it’s more about you working through the ins and outs of sharpening - the KME just happens to be along for the ride.

@@kpfagerberg there are several ways you can clean stones. Is it diamond stones? If you don't sharpen using oil, you can use a pink pencil eraser to clean them. I run my diamond stones dry and use a small spray bottle with water after I'm done using that stone. I spray it and then wipe it down. When I wanna do a deep clean, I take the stones to the sink and use a tooth brush with some dish soap and water. If you sharpen using oil, you can just use more oil and rub it in and then wipe it off for a quick cleaning. Now for ceramic stones, bar keepers friend seems to be the best that I've used. I make a paste with the bar keeper's friend and a little water. I then scrub the ceramic stones with a tooth brush and the paste I made. Rinse thoroughly and you're golden.

@ thanks, I use the diamond stones. I’ll try rinsing them off and doing a deep clean later on them. They are still pretty new. I just got the system

@@BladeShowMan I didn't measure the angle but id say somewhere around 18-20dps.

@@kpfagerberg congrats on the new KME! Did you get the 4" stone KME or the new Precision Control Plus? When sharpening, the main goal is to achieve a burr on both sides and then you'll want to remove it. I'll link a video I did a little while back showing a good technique for burr removal. Also, if you're on Facebook, join the KME Users group.

@ just the 4 stone model. Gave great results just messing around on it. Just trying to figure out how to get to that next level of sharp.

@@MrTrainREX the fix in this short is fixing the unsharpened portion of the heel. Spyderco is notorious for not sharpening their knives all the way to the plunge grind. Using the technique I display on one of my videos, you can fix this area with the KME. Are you using the KME? When clamping are you making sure to pinch the jaws before tightening the tri-wing knob down? Also, its a good practice to make sure to clean the blade with rubbing alcohol before sharpening to get any oils and such off the blade for better clamping. You can also use rubbing alcohol to clean the rubber inserts in the jaws. Sometimes the jaws can get gunked up from sharpening swarf and/or oils from sharpening, so cleaning them every once in a while isn't a bad habit to get in.

@@samsonedges thanks! i was focusing on the wrong thing haha - i see it now

@@whoknows1534 the pliers head stiffening after hard use is a known problem with the free series multitools. I had a free p4 do the same thing. Sometime you can tap the pliers head on a table and it will loosen back up. I always just throw a little oil in the pivot of pliers head and it seems to do the trick.

@@Buh_Sting there's nothing wrong with the worksharp, however the KME is also very portable. It comes in a nice hard pistol style case. I will say though the worksharp is limited in its capabilities as well as accessories/add-ons when it comes up against the KME. I think both work well for what they are designed for but overall they're in 2 different leagues IMO. Its like comparing apples to oranges. Appreciate the view and comment.

I completely agree! I sharpen 99% of my knives to 600 grit diamond, and then I'll strop using 6 micron diamond emulsions from KME. You talk about a nice n crispy edge!

@@bullybar4078 I'm from WV. Id really like to get back into making vids sometime soon hopefully. Work life has really kicked my butt the last couple years. I'm glad to hear that my videos have helped you! Thats really awesome brotha! Thank you for the comment!

@@dustinwhitt5297 agreed! Polished most definitely can be stupid sharp!

They are wrong. A coarse edge has rougher scretches and these scratches are clicnging against the cut in a microscopic view, giving more resistance in cutting some mattirials! while mirror polished edges don't have that problem since they have much finer scratches. In conclusion, mirror polish is sharper but in many cases it's little to no difference depending on the knife and the things you cut!

@@nOObels1 no, I keep it the same. KME makes all of their diamond stones, strops, and lapping films the same thickness, so no need to change the angle when stropping. The only time you'd want to change the angle is if you were dealing with stones and strops of varying thicknesses.

@samsonedges ok thx ! Heard or read somewhere that the angle needed to be changed also when the strop is soft.

@@judaismopractico1542 this is the KME Precision Control Plus. I'll link it below for you! kmesharp.com/products/new-kme-precision-control-plus-professional-knife-sharpening-system

@@urbanarcher3535 thats a Tusker Aztec.

@@chrishavlinek8754 its definitely well worth it, especially if you sharpen a good bit of larger blades. It really comes in clutch with kitchen knives and especially filet knives.

@@thaknobodi absolutely. This test, with such a short blade, truly shows how sharp the knife is due to you only being able to push cut.

@@recardovega6022 the KME can definitely change that for you. If you're looking into getting a sharpening system, definitely check out the KME.

@@mmllrjr I'll link a video I did a while back showing the process I use to fix the unsharpened portion of the heel on spyderco knives.

@@chiefsmakahoe0444 congrats on the new job! The stropping emulsions are freakin awesome! You'll love them when your able to snag some. If you're not going for mirror edges, id recommend just snagging the 6 micron. Thats my favorite one and done emulsions grit from KME.

@@chiefsmakahoe0444 she's definitely sharp after the KME treatment. Appreciate the comment

@@samsonedges o problem I’ve been wanting one for a while hope to get one soon I’d love a titanium one but g10 is fine with me can’t decide if I want the 20 or the 20s also been wanting a hinderer xm18 3.5 fatty

@@Crackadona KME. Ive owned the KME for almost 10yrs now and love it. I now have the new KME system as well. Its phenomenal.

@@samsonedges I've been looking for info in the new system. I can only find one video on it on UA-cam. How do I tell the new one from the old model. Is it called like KME xl or something? Thanks.

@@Crackadona the new model is the Precision control plus. Knifeguy, Cedric and ada, and KME all have some vids on the new system. Its great. All American made backed by the best warranty/ customer service in the business. The new system has only been out since last month. You probably won't find alot of vids on it. I have a few shorts on it but haven't done a full video yet.

@samsonedges Thanks for the reply! I was leaning twords the tsprof system but would like to avoid that price tag I'd possible. Does the kme system come with stones? And if so do you recommend swapping them out for any other brand/type of stones? I will be doing folders and kitchen knives mostly and would like to achive a mirror edge on my folders. Thanks again for the information.

@@Crackadona the KME comes with 4 diamonds stones. You get a 140, 300, 600, and 1500 grit. They are around the best diamond stones on the market. They last a long long time. For mirrors you can add a couple of the strops and diamond sprays if you would like. I recommend just getting sharp with the regular kit first before doing mirrors.

Ehhhh idk about all that lol 😆

Not sure what you mean by that.

This was a buddy's knife but he dyed the scales. It's the yellow native dyed with ritdyemore.

I'm hoping to soon have a full setup and sharpening on this bad boy! Its a beast of a system for sure.

😂ahhh yeah!! KME tends to do that to a fellar.
