Sharp Sharp Sharp on Cutlery & Knife Accessories

I deal with some fine tools with chisels etc that need fine sharpening with waterstones, diamond sharpeners etc. Recently I started fishing in seawater and came here. tell the difference between a really sharp fillet knife and an "I'm trying to butcher a fish with a baseball bat" knife. I've tried several knife sharpeners ranging from $40-$10 and spent some time using my chisels and whetstones. I know how to sharpen well, but cheap quick V-shaped sharpeners are just a joke. I don't want to spend an evening sharpening a bunch of knives so I invested and bought this device. I'm also an engineer and I'll admit that there are two things in a sharp knife: angle and burr. You can grind a corner easily enough, but you'll probably have to deal with a microscopic burr of bent metal, depending on how you do it Grind or shape corner. Now that you have some background, I got a little familiar with this tool, read the instructions, and was given a fillet knife, sharpened with both hands on my stones and honed with one of those carbide "V" shaped "sharpeners". became. I've slaughtered a ton of fish with him in a variety of conditions. I ran it through this Worksharp MK2 in about two to three minutes (including changing the belt for honing). The end result is phenomenal. it was a great purchase. It's not a very complex device, but it does what it needs to do exceptionally well. From a purist point of view, the combined strap system forms an arc on the machined edge instead of a straight line - so it will dull a little faster if it does dull - but that's a minor gripe. The complaint is tiny, especially since it only takes a few minutes to get a razor-sharp edge again. I am very glad I bought this sharpener as it takes me several minutes to do what used to take me 30 minutes with a knife.
