The tester uses a slow processor, so you need to cut slowly. Cutting fast produces false readings. Your 70 is likely more like 200. The original diamond disk is good quality. Good system.
There is a limit to how sharp a blade can get, each device has its own limits. If you continue sharpening after you have hit this limit, nothing will happen to the sharpness of the knife, but more material will be shaven off, resulting in a slightly smaller knife (not very noticeable). This will have an affect over the years as your knife will get less broad and smaller. Hope this helps
The wooden block with the magnets in it that he sticks the knife to holds the blade at an angle, one side of the block holds it at a 15 degree angle, the other side holds it at a 20 degree angle. When people say a knife is “too sharp” what they typically mean is that the angle of the edge is too minute, and therefore won’t hold up to its intended use. This tool will only sharpen the edge of your knife to one of two angles regardless of how much time you sit there sharpening it.
Magnet is to weak. Also its barrel is wood, not ideal. Wood swells and contracts. Also no lip for smaller knives. I'm upgrading. It will give you a sharp knife for sure. But small knives I have to hold the blade to keep it from going to low to sharpen. The concept is sound. Their are better models. Hone, and worksharp both offer a superior product.
I agree, only found this type recently, and although he calls it legendary, there are still improvements to make. For amateurs, novice , and the very light house user, these seem to be ideal; hopefully competition will present an affordable entry price model.
Loved the concept, got excited and ordered the Hone, found out 3 days after ordering that it won’t arrive until Jan 30th. Canceled and going to the Worksharp Precision Pro.
Thanks, the best ‘how to do it’ video I’ve seen.
Thanks! Glad you liked the video
love this vid. subscribed
Thanks! Got any recommendations on other products I should test out ?

All these guys trying to promote a sharpener do it fast for low readings!
Great video
Thank you 🙏 glad you liked it
Try the horl kagami
Could you do a follow up review on the Horl? Maybe another video where you try to get a knife as sharp as possible with it??
Yes sir that sounds good il try to make one this week
Did you ever do a follow up on the horl to get a knife as Sharp as possible?
Absolutely delightful watching your content!
How much time, or passes did you do with the white whetstone?
Yeah on the blue and white ones they says on the box to do 100 passes for the best results
What type of knife can you use it on? Just kitchen?
No it works with pocket knives to
Straight razors as well?@@Miller.modification
Awesome video!
Thanks!!
was this the Pro or just the Standard 2 gen?
This was the 2 gen not the pro
The biggest difference from the pro and the 2 gen is that the pro does more passes/stroke per roll so it will sharpen faster
@@Miller.modification Thanks for the reply and clarification.
can it be over sharpened?
Can your bank account have too much money in it?

Yeah I just did a review on the worksharp roller
@@Miller.modification I'll look. A comparison with the hone would be helpful.
@@PhonePhone-bz2ql yeah I’ll check out hone thanks

I own the set and believe me it is at least 3 times overpriced, there are more affordable and even better systems available
It looks extremely dangerous to use for stupid people.
Over priced and needed to be upgraded
Inane. Talk less
