I'm in Tampa Florida and have recently become certified to sharpen clipper blades and shears...I went ahead and purchased a Harbor Freight 1x30 belt sander that was recommended to me by my good friend and he introduced me to you on UA-cam... thank you for all the content... I've been watching and learning nonstop... keep up the great work brother...
How did you get that certification? Did you go to a special course or school?
I have been watching all your videos, I can watch them over and over again, and never get bored
Thanks for putting in all the effort to show us this. I know it drastically slows down your process. I'm not sure if I'm alone in saying this, but I could watch you sharpen all day..
Thanks as always man, I keep thinking about if I could live stream like on TwitchTV and would it be fun to watch(would I enjoy it?). As long as you guys keep telling me its good, Ill keep making new videos trying to show new stuff. Suggestions encouraged! :)
The red HF belt sander with the flames looks real nice 😎👍
So far only watched a couple of your videos. Learned a lot. Just bought a sander and trying to figure out which belts to buy. The video on belts is extremely useful. I will be watching more. I have a big knife which too easily sliced through a fairly thick branch, then proceeded to follow through until it hit the concrete block buried in the bed of leaves below. I hope to remove the chip without having to do too drastic a reshape on the blade. The chip is up near the tip, so it may be doable. It will be my first go at a task like this. I think I will be watching a few more of your videos before I put blade to belt.
You are an excellent presenter/teacher. You have a great delivery; it's obvious that you know what you're presenting. Thank you. So many UA-camrs are just not good at communicating. I have stopped more than one video that I just could't take any more. I can watch you anytime, any day. Thank you.
Huge compliments, thank you very much!
U R an excellent teacher Cliff !!
Appreciate that comment very much I try
Hey....great video with some fine sharpening tips....I thank you. One thing, you could do to get away from the motor housing problem you complained about grinder number two would be by simply moving your bevel guide up an inch or so and there sure appears to be sufficient room for that kind of modification. Keep up the good work. Saludos, Anaco, Anz.
Its really a brilliant simple solution. Some else had pointed it out a while back. I need to mention that in a new video coming up
Awesome video, thanks Cliff
Awesome video Cliff! I always glean a tip or two from watching. Keep the videos coming! I enjoy the commentary along the way regarding sharpening tips and the usefulness of different types of edge finishes.
Your videos are great! Keep up the good work.
Bonjour, bel équipement. Bravo. 🇫🇷
Je vous remercie :)
Another great video, Cliff!
Thanks Garry! Stay tuned for a special piece of sharpening equipment in an upcoming scissor sharpening video. Grateful man!
Really appreciate your time and effort to produce these excellent and informative videos. Please keep it up. Would like to see an update on the Rikon.
I commented as Kimberly Lewis below, not paying attention to the fact that she was signed in. My opinions still stand. Thank you.
Cheers cobber ...nice little linnishers 😃
Hey . Happened to find your channel . Really enjoyed this video and some of the others you've made. Looking forward to seeing more !
It looks like the first three machines all turn towards you is that not also dangerous? Subscribed!
Right on brah,
Another awsome video, I see that free hand on the buff better edge trailing without the job gig, do n’t pull the blade away off the gig.
Nice keep um coming

Nicely done
This is awesome. Showing closeups of the blade edge is really interesting. Question: Why use the felt belt and diamond spray if you are going to keep a toothy primary edge? Is there some advantage to polishing just the edge of the secondary bevel? How does that affect cutting performance? Keep up the great work, I'm learning a lot from these. Thanks!
The video poster might have a different answer but in general you go to a buffing belt to remove the burr while keeping the tooth. If you leave the burr then you haven't refined the apex completely but progressing through the higher grit sanding belts will remove the toothy bite. Skipping the fine honing belts and jumping into the buffing belt is the compromise that gets you both de-burred but still toothy.
Thanks for the always informative videos. I've found that 15 degrees is perfect for my Japanese made knives that have a Rockwell hardness around 61 to 63, they can keep the edge well. However, my softer European knives, which have a Rockwell hardness around 56 don't keep the edge as well at 15 degrees and keep a better edge at 20 to 22 degrees. I sharpen by stone, then with a wood/leather strop. However, If I ever decide to go with a 1 inch sanding belt machine, the Wren variable speed looks sweet and seems worth the extra bucks to have a variable speed.
Great work !! Love it!!
Thanks Keifer as always, please guys let me know if theres any suggestions for things youd like to see too. Im thinking for the next one Ill do a "Down and Dirty" quick n easy just like the guys at swap meets do. 1 grit and knock the burr off, done. Finish on a cardboard wheel n show that finally as well.
Curry Custom Cutlery if i was to buy one machine?? Suggestions?
Curry Custom Cutlery Any update on doing the down and dirty video
Dang Keifer225948 not sure how the heck I missed your question. Comment notification is so goofy on this sometimes. Email me: currycustomcutlery@gmail.com or message me on FB. Lets get you sorted, I know youve been following along for awhile!
If you could see my shop you'd see why no videos...looks like a bomb went off. New equipment everywhere...next video might actually be from the Farmers Market! :O
Why isn't the Harbor Freight 1 x30 you have videos on in the lineup?
I painted my original one cherry red and put flames on it.
Still using it 5yrs later everyday damn day!
Been going through the videos. Thanks! They're so helpful.
I know you have a shop, but do you sell the motors, or do we have to source those ourselves?
Hi Cliff, is there any way you could tell us how you started your sharpening business?
Thanks, good videos.
Happy to discuss privately anytime. Hunt down my contract info and hit me up.
Excellent video - just wondering... at ~ 17:55 you mention that the toothyness' is conducive to cutting into/through vegetables. I believe the same theory works with red meats. My question is, what food types would a *highly* polished edge work better on? Chicken... fish... other?
Where and how to draw the line if especially with food types is what particularly interests me.
Happy to hear from any on the matter, including any other relative factors
Thanks again for this *great* upload/info.
In general my understanding and experience has been toothy for slicing, such as meats etc...polished for chopping vegetables. Chefs like their stuff at a high polish but still not sure if thats just a "thing". I know the local hunters like em toothier the better.
A very clear and concise answer of which I really appreciate. Best regards!
@@CurryCustomCutlery I'm only a long time hunter but I can say toothy is great for skinning work.
Hi Cliff, I bought the Harbor Freight 1"x30" sharpener and the Surgi-Sharp 1"x30" leather honing belt .
My question to you is What`s the best way to initially charge the leather belt with green resin.
I installed the the belt rough side out and when I attempt to apply the green resin while the belt is spinning , it sends little fragments flying all over and very little of the resin sticks to the honing belt. Please give me your secret for thoroughly impregnating a new Surgi-Sharp Honing belt, Thanks in advance SC
Sorry if this is not the correct place to post this question
I wish I had "the" answer for you but each compound applies different and personally I now think Ive been putting too much on, more then needed. You can try to lightly warm it before applying.
Hi Cliff :) How do you pivot the microscope camera and still have the edge in focus? Some sort of a jig?
hello from florida
Hello there!
Great video. Where can I find those guides for the sander.
www.amazon.com/Knife-Sharpening-Angle-Guide-Sharpen/dp/B01HVXFP80/ref=asc_df_B01HVXFP80/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312003160272&hvpos=1o3&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13645972697591714747&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9032784&hvtargid=pla-423204249741&psc=1
Where can I find the angle guide
www.currycustomcutlery.com/products/angle-guide
We also have full line of belts at best prices around for quality.
Why do you prefer a toothy edge over a polished edge?
Why not use your scissor sharpening jig to sharpen your knives? You can lock your blade at the fixed angle and then pivot the tip with the pivoting action of the scissor jig.
Much slower process for starters..?
How much pressure are you using? Are you making contact with the back stop?
It sucks the motor you upgraded your harbor freight grinder too is impossible to get.someone should make an upgrade kit with the motors and wheels.thx for your videos.
Hang in there, information is literally weeks away with upgrade kit possibilities and at least 3 different motor options out there in use that Ive been testing. Im serious this time, I mean it...really!!!
Wish I'd have watched your video before I tried my strop. Cut it right into first time. OOPS. Now I know...
Ouch!! 😵
Does the Rikon motor get in your way? Looks like you adjusted your grip at 6:29.
I dont notice it anymore. Also smart comment from someone was to move the platten up vertical an inch. Problem solved
What camera do you use?
How do we reduce the direction of the belt? Where do I get an Angle Guide? I just bought a Harbor Freight 1x30 Sander.
Hopefully not to late with the reply.
We have best quality belts and the angle guide with other stuff:

GoodVideo
Cliff has gone missing. He said more projects were coming but it has been over 6 months.
I really am trying to record. New van n equipment are on the road. This weekend I'm at Western Sharpener Workshop in Portland. Check my face ook page if curious where I'm at. Sorry guys...I'll be back!
Question: are the angled guides that are made to use edge leading still recommended? I ask because i recently purchased one but its orientation is different
I find the edge trailing version to not work so well. I understand many people want to go with the belt for safety reasons. The problem is the belt pulls the knife off of the angle guide and the bevel becomes all wavy and not clean looking.
Hello. Tell me please, how many rpm have a red belt sander? Best wishes. Great video!
Roughly a bit under 1000rpm up to 2000rpms.
So this belt sander has the ability to adjust the speed ?! Did you buy it like that or have you personally installed the speed reducer or something else?
Machine frame has been modified to mount a variable speed DC motor. Drive wheel was also modified to fit new shaft.
14 degrees per side or inclusive
Gotta be per side. Generally high end steels on say Japanese knives get sharpened as low as 10-11 degree as per side, 15 - 17 9s way more common. Good German knives have a lot of debate on the best angles, not generally between 17-15 degrees with 20-22 being kinda in the mean. Lots of new info saying that 17 dps is great for the “softer” German steels too. This is a rabbit hole, but to answer your question, I’m positive he’s sharpening at 14 degrees per side.
Noticed you have not been doing many videos lately. I am about to invest in that Rickon 50-161vs (currently $199 on amazon). I see you removed the sanding disk side all together... what is the shaft size on that? Have you thought about adding a paper sharpening wheel system to it?
I did attach a stropping wheel. I liked the idea but it's a bit close for comfort. Hard choices, I've found problems with all off the shelf systems. This one is variable speed which is good, but the motor body gets in the way of larger knives at lower angles then 17 degrees.
@@CurryCustomCutlery what is the size of the shaft?
Roy Fernbach if u put wheel on other shaft end itbwill be in way of hand. The motor housing itself is already in the way for finer anfles or narrower knives.
What’s your micro photo setup?
I have small starter studio setup including tripod, mount for smartphone, mini shotgun mic and led lighting. I wasnt using the shotgun mic today and probably should have...tried to level out audio in editing but its a pain with the software I currently have. Editing is my weak link atm.
Where do you get angle blocks
Google Surgi-sharp angle guide.
There is a video in this channel with more info.
The price fluctuates alot for these items so I bought them and stock on our website here:
www.currycustomcutlery.com/products
What happened I was getting a vast wealth of knowledge from ur videos then poof ur gone, hope all is ok
Lol Bill I'm sorry. Been so busy n so many new things haven't picked up the camera. I'll try to remedy that.
Excellent video. Great tips. I will try that felt belt. Have you ever tried using an unsewn buffing wheel for the final finish? It will remove any lingering bits at the apex of the edge but I think you will retain the toothiness from your belt. I'm a woodcarver so my carving blades get sharpened out to 1500 or 2000 grit before stropping and then I touch them on an unsewn buffing wheel, just like in this video: ua-cam.com/video/Bi-v43tzrUs/v-deo.html
