Even if its just something like " email sent"

When you post it gives me a chance to check you out to make sure I'm not sending it to a troll :D

I will post a list of you I have so far later tonight.
 
Definitley, I'm tired of working hours to put a rounded edge on a knife. Got to be a quicker way to do it. :D :rolleyes:

I must say that this is a most generous offer of pahl's. I received the video on the first passaround and I enjoyed watching it. I just popped in to say that pahl is great for doing this, and to recommend to those getting the video that they check their local libraries for John Juranich's "Razor Edge Book of Sharpening", or whatever it is called. The book and the video go great together. I figure that since my local library has it, and I live in a small place, that most of you guys should be able to find J.J.'s book easily too!

Good luck sharpening!
 
OK, I just finished watching it! It was well worth it. I have the Razor Edge Book of Sharpening, but nothing can replace watching John's son Joe first grind in the relief and then grind the primary and secondary edge using the Razor Edge Guide. If I hadn't seen the video I would have never really understood the sharpening motion. Now I do.

One thing I don't know if I can bring myself to do, however, is to grind in that relief and totally mess up the edge of my blade! It seems like it will scratch the hell out of it. I can get my knives decently sharp using my Spyderco 204. And I can keep the edge good longer by using my Razor Edge portable smooth steel. And I plan to buy Razor Edge's Mousetrap Steel for my kitchen, and can steel my folders using that, as well. But taking one of my nice folders and scratching the hell out of the blade to put in the relief - is it worth it? If you've done it, please let us know. :)

Even if I don't use Juranitch's method completely, I learned about the burr from his book, and several other useful techniques (steeling, safety, etc.).

Thanks for this opportunity, Pahl! You are a great Bladeforumer.

I'm mailing the video today to RifRaf via Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation.

Regards,

Johnny
 
JohnnyLightOn:

Thanks for the heads up... I'll be watching for the video!

I'm like you, I've been unable to bring myself to risk scratching my better blades either. I suppose I'll "HAVE TO" try it on an inexpensive blade after I watch the video.
 
Pahl:

Thanks for the opportunity to view the video...I really enjoyed it!

JMXCPTER:

Heads up! The video will be enroute to you via priority mail on Monday 8/26.
 
Between work and puppy training time has been scarce recently. I promise to watch teh tape tonight and get it shipped off by Monday, 9/16.

Again, sorry for the delay.

Lets see if we can get this video moved around the list a little faster.
It's not that long of a video :)

Thanks,
