    @eric6345 4 місяці тому +1

    Sharpening with the whetstone I think makes the most sense because your moving the cutter blade with the grain of the stone, similar to sharpening cutlery on a whetstone. The circular grinder seems off because your moving the blade of the cutter perpendicular to grain of the metal, like a floor waxer.

    Thanks a bunch! I have always had a whetstone ... learned how to sharpen kitchen knives from my father when I was just a kid ... but I never tried to sharpen my rotary cutter blades with it. Duh! There is definitely an art to using a whetstone effectively. I would rather go the easy route I think so I might just purchase the 3rd one.

      Yeah the #Trucut sharpener didn’t work for me either and actually made my blades duller. Unfortunately for me I waited several months before I used it so never returned it.

  • @scmom745
    @scmom745 2 роки тому +2

    Great review , but I didn’t like the omnigrid sharpener. It didn’t sharpen my dull blade at all and I thought that it could easily yourself if you’re not careful. I plan to order the Trucut sharpener as it’s getting good ratings on several sites. However, one thing that I learned in all my blade sharpening research and trial was that the cutting mat should be cleaned regularly especially after heavy use.

  • @bella-bee
    @bella-bee 2 роки тому +3

    Does it matter what shape central hole you have in the blade? Does the 2nd sharpener require those little cutout shapes in the central hole, meaning a circular hole wouldn’t fit?

    I didn't use my rotary cutter for 1.5 years and it got dull even if I just bought and used it once. It didn't cut at all but just created a crease on the fabric. Really amazing because the cutter is of Clover 🍀, quite a good one so ²⁶⁶²4x⁵⁷

  • @kfaz3979
    @kfaz3979 3 роки тому +7

    Super helpful video, thanks for doing the research for us! One thing though, at the 3:30 mark, the in/out of the camera isn’t good for the eyes or brain of your viewer. As a RN, this can cause a trigger for epileptics or, for me an instant headache and dizziness. Things like bright flashing lights (think fast strobe lights or a flickering light bulb that needs to be replaced) aren’t good for the brain and they’re hard to process. Again, love your videos, but might not want to use that particular effect for your viewers.

    I use both a 45mm and a 60mm rotary cutter. If I buy the little handheld version, I will have to buy 2 (one for each size). I am guessing that the linear sharpener will work for any size blade. 2 handheld and 1 linear amount to about the same in price. So which would you recommend for me?
