In todays video I answer this weeks most asked question! How I sharpen my knives!
Paper wheel system…amzn.to/3oL1Mre
Leather strop belt.. amzn.to/3dI91Ki

Tip for those who are learning this technique, as the tip of your knife makes contact, do Not follow through pulling the tip off the edge of the belt or wheel. Lift it off just before you follow through.
This will help to prevent you from rounding over you tip, tearing into your belt or wheel, or worse overheating the tip.
If you rewatch the video you will notice he lifts off and doesn’t pull the tip off of the edge of the tool.
👊👊👍👍
By far my favorite newer/smaller knife channel
Well I really appreciate that!!! 👊👊
Great sharpening video. Sharpening has always been my arch-nemesis, and has caused me to quit knifemaking half a dozen times. 😅 I keep coming back though... I started with a Lansky style jig, then paper wheels, but couldnt quite get the hang of them, so I went to the 2x72, but still wasn’t happy so I’m currently getting pretty good results on a Tormek clone made by WEN l, but it takes f.o.r.e.v.e.r. I may have to revisit the 2x72, but hold it the way you do and then maybe use the WEN stropping wheel for the polish.
I think that’s a good plan. I haven’t tried out one of those tormek style sharpeners yet!
That wheel is on a high speed grinder. You will overheat the blade from time to time. You should use the leather belt or felt belt for your 2x72.
Interesting to see different techniques and equipment for sharpening, thanks. I'd like to see safety glasses used though.
Thanks for watching!
Once again, great tutorial and info. Hadn’t heard of the paper wheel system but will definitely give them a try at some point.
Thank you!
Awesome! I’ve never tried the wheels. I’ll definitely try it out. Thanks for sharing brother.
They take a little practice but I love that setup
I’ve been sharpening on a 3500 rpm grinder, my new one comes tomorrow can’t wait
Very nice! What one did you go with?
great job showing that bur coming up. that was cool see and know what to look for. Thanks!
I had my wife come out and film for me 😆 thanks for watching man!
What is the quality of the edge for utility work? I’m concerned about the slightly hollow grind versus a convex grind for my larger, heavy use blades, machetes, etc., before I invest in a bench grinder, MDF wheels.
I’m wonder if I could just get the MDF wheels for a do all, or should I get the work sharp Ken onion thing for a more durable, convex edge.
What do you think?
Great video! I’m just getting into knife making and the paper wheel system looks pretty solid to me. I just ordered one and I found a 2 speed grinder that Buck tools makes. Runs at 1750 or 3500 RPMs. Ordered that too. I figured if you use it and make a living doing it, it’s probably good enough for me. Thanks for all the content. Love the channel!
O man that’ll be very nice! Maybe I’ll look into get an adjustable speed grinder for the paper wheels. 👊👊
@@gentrycustomknives8008 Bucktool TDS-200DS 8-inch bench grinder …$165 but they offer a $10 coupon if you sign up for emails. Direct form bucktools. I’ll let you know how it goes when I practice on some kitchen knives!
@@gentrycustomknives8008 adjustable speed!better than 2
Great my friend and that is smart turning the wheels that way I have the same wheels and I had a knife jerk out of my hand it could've been bad
Sounds sketchy!
You are definitely a craftsman
Thank you!
Very good video. I’m still haven’t perfected holding the angle of the knife steady, I could use one of those stickers your son gave you, lol.
Definitely takes alot of practice!!!
The way you pass the blade back and forth over those wheels 2 or 3 times is going to overheat the edge and reduces Rockwell. Slow those wheels and belts right down and spray water on them. One pass and dip.
Sharpened 100s this way with no problems.
I’m not at all into the Paperwheel, but I’ve tried it. Too dangerous and I don’t have the space. 400 grid and 800 grid on the belt grinder in quite slow reverse on top (away from me). I must try to find a leather belt here in Europe. A good stropping to get rid of the burr and I’m good. Takes max 5 minutes.
That works great too! The leather belt is fantastic!
What’s something a regular guy can have on hand for putting a little touch up on a pocket knife on the go. Saw a little key chain thing somewhere on UA-cam. Guy called it poker chip or something along those lines. I don’t know much about this stuff yet. Thx for any advice on getting my feet wet .

Nice vid. Good time management.
😀😀thank you!
Nice! Well done!
Thanks a lot man! Appreciate you checking out the videos!
hey brother, thanks for the great video! curious how the regritting work on the wheel? do you just hit it with some spray adhesive?
I actually use white Elmer’s glue for re gritting
Great stuff....
Thank you !
For resharpening do you go back and start with the belt or straight to the paper wheels?
Straight to the wheels
Have you ever tried turning one of your old sanding belts inside out and applying a bit of compound to it. Saves buying a leather belt.
Interesting! I haven’t tried that
Does this scratch the edgeup a lot?
Good job 👍
Thank you!
Did you name you boy after Walter the knife maker just curious lol
Lol no
What 2x72 machine did you use?
Beaumont metal works KMG TX
Unless you are good at this you end up like me with a dull knife. Got to have a fixed angle guide. I know you can do it, but I am not able to hold the angle so my knives are often worse after "sharpening."
Just need to practice!
@@gentrycustomknives8008 I probably should just go get a pack of razor blades and a holder.
Thanks for ur « clear » english 👍👍
👊👊👊
Good video...but brother, protect those eyes. All the gear and skill ain't worth shit if you're blind! I've started using the paper wheels and really like them, but I find for kitchen knives, I like a bit of tooth on the edge, so I don't polish them as much as pocket knives. Also been pretty happy using 3M Trizact belts. You can get them super fine.
What grit trizact belt?
Dude, Not even safety Glasses?
No way
New to your channel and I did subscribe so where can I get 1 of your bird and fish knives.....
Message me over on Instagram to talk about it!
Sharpen on a budget?
How budget ?
LOL! If you’re hand sharpening, you’re not even in the same ZIP code as truly razor sharp. Razor sharp is sub 50 on the BESS scale.
Awesome
