Rez 4,957 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Not watched it yet, but funny you should bring this up. Had to get a new sharpening stone from the shooting show, only to find one I had when I was a nipper. Love a ultra razor like knife. Downwards across the stone, and a super shallow angle.

mattwhite 1,993 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Nice video VM. I will try this on my fish filleting knives too. They are sharpened weekly on a grinder and throughout the day with a steel but this looks like it gives a very fine edge pal.? Quote Link to post

My 98 and maybe my 97... I don't have access to such a device. In fact, Richard with his 99 done his. I'll collar him Quote Link to post

PeskyWabbits 464 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 I've got a bench grinder in my conservatory. Does a good job but have to watch for sparks on the double glazing. Quote Link to post

gurtwurz 792 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 you can pick up bench top grinders from Wickes/screwfix/machine mart for 30quid-ish lads, youll have to google paper wheels or find a knifemaking supplies online for them. dont forget to get a good polishing compound or it wont work as well... cheers, wurz 1 Quote Link to post
philpot 4,927 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Well impressed with that Mitch. I need to route under some stuff in the garage for my grinder, same as the one in the vid. Phil Quote Link to post
