Knife steels aren’t for sharpening. They’re for honing. If you know how to do it well, and do it regularly, it keeps edges straight, not sharp. For the uninitiated, sharpening removes metal, and honing will true up the very tip of an edge that is prone to folding over.

@@josesepulveda634 The knife steel for example: The idea that you use it tosharpen your knife is a misconception. Your knife will have a sharp edge. This edge can dull, break, or bend. When the edge breaks, all you can do is grind down the knife to where it becomes even again and then resharpen it. If the edge is dull you just resharpen it (for example by using a whetstone to grind away material to make the edge sharp again). But when the edge bends, you don't want to grind that away, you ideally want to bend it back, and as soon as possible so the edge doesn't bend any further during cutting. That's what this steel is for: When you slide the knife across it (in the right manner) it catches all the little bends and bends them back. Trying to sharpen a knife with it will be as successfull as trying to chop down a tree with a hammer. Doesn't mean it's bad tool, just that someone has no idea how to use it and what for.

Good old misconceptions on the butcher's steel... lets clear some up: 1) Butcher's steels don't hone (unless they're ceramic or diamond coated) they burnish. Honing is an abrasive process, burnishing is not. 2) Most cheap butcher's steels are useless because they are either too soft (chrome plated instead of hard chrome plated) or too coarse (most professional butcher's steels have very shallow grooves that are only slightly grabby; some are even polished) or both. 3) Butcher's steels work best with blades that are not very hard, viz butcher's knives and low end to mid range kitchen knives. Using a butcher's steel on a very hard blade might cause chipping of the edge (a very hard blade might even catch on / slightly cut into the surface of a cheap butcher's steel that's too soft). 4) Butcher's steels can be used to touch up a knife that has lost its bite, but it won't bring back a completely dull edge. 5) Using a butcher's steel will work harden the edge (like bending a palerclip to and fro), so it cannot be touched up indefinitly. At some point you'll need to grind a new edge removing the stressed steel.
@cmdrsocks

Great points. Most modern kitchen knives (I am assuming decent quality here) have steel that is hard enough and tough enough that using a butcher's steel is a waste of time, better to properly sharpen and strop the blade.

@paulstallings1177
6 жыл бұрын
My understanding, and correct me if I'm wrong, was that a butcher's steel does not "sharpen" a blade it only re-aligns the edge. With normal use the fine razor's edge on many kitchen knives can roll over, on a microscopic level, seeming dull and the steel corrects this. But over time and/or with neglect material on the edge will ware away and no amount of honing with a steel can bring back the edge, because it's no longer there. That's when it's time to sharpen the blade via a subtractive process by grinding or using a wet stone, removing material but leaving behind a new razor's edge. That's why chefs will use the butcher's steel every time they bust out their knife, or every 10-15 minutes of use if using the knife for an extended period of time.

You don't "sharpen" a knife with a knife steel. You uncurl the edge. Has always worked for me. I mean, it only works to some extent. If the knife is dull it's dull but if you just sharpened it and hit the cutting board a few times and it got dull(er) you flick out the knife steel and have a few go arounds and you can cut tomatoes again :)
@Howtard
6 жыл бұрын
Just so you know, you should use your steel to stop that curl from ever forming. Once it curls like that a knife won't be as sharp again until the edge has been ground away (which is job better left to stones and grinding wheels) If you use your steel right your knives will stay very sharp. Incoming unwarranted tip: Every now and then, before or after use, carefully place the blade of your knife horizontally across the back of a fingernail and drag your nail perpendicular to the direction of the blade in both directions; If you feel the edge catch or drag in one direction more than the other then that means that side is beginning to curl and you should use your steel on that side.

Forging is long and complicated so the only bades you would find that are hardened are hand-made ones or the more expensive knives. One way to check is to use a metal working file to try and scratch it. If it doesn't catch on the metal, slides without much resistance and doesn't leave a scratch mark then it is hardened steel

The knife steel is hard to learn without guidance, but if you look at even the most basic of images that explain it, it is quite easy to learn. It took met about 30 minutes to get it right. P.S. only use it for knives that already have an edge.

The "HONING" steel would work just fine if you used it properly. its not meant to sharpen your knives its meant to realign the edge of your blade. if you use them every time you use your knife as well as wash, dry, and store your knife properly it will last a long time before it needs sharpening. A job that is meant for a wet stone.

That,s true. I have two steels, a coarse and a fine. The coarse WILL sharpen without losing much metal, then the fine hones it to a razor edge. It's all in the angle. NOBODY touches my knives with a sharpener. I hate those Eversharp knives. I only use a wetstone if I buy a knife someone has really messed up, or for axes/hatchets, machetes.

Wether he is familiar with proper use of not, my knowledge of metallurgy tells me that too many of these are made of inferior metals for the task. I've owned three of them that I could cut into with the knives they came with. If they are designing them expecting you to move the edge of the blade without removing metal then they've designed them to be virtually useless. How many times can you expect to do that without breaking that edge off? 1? ...2 maybe? I don't know if that's what you mean when you say "bring the edge of the blade back into alignment and straighten it out" but your words lead me to that conclusion. I have seen one or two of these that cut through the metal of the knife and they were very useful to have in the kitchen. Of course, this guy keeps one in his tool box so ...go figure.

When a knife is sharpened with a stone, it leaves what is referred to as a "wire edge". The purpose of the steel is to remove this wire edge, also known as honing. It does not require much effort or especially hard steel.

todd coles Its not for sharpening or honing. It's for stropping. Before a sharp blade dulls, the fine edge curls over. You are supposed to twist the steel slightly while pulling the blade toward you at a slight angle and pulling the blade away from the steel. This removes the curled edge and helps keep the blade sharp. You can do the same thing with a leather strop like the Barbers used to do with a straight razor. Unfortunately the art of sharpening a knife has gone away with hard stainless steel that takes a diamond wheel to cut it. Now days, I just buy me a good Gerber and get a new one every 10 or 15 years when it gets dull.

In a tool sense the knife steel may not hold much value, but in a kitchen it is used to hone the blade before every use. it straitens the steel and knocks of any imperfections, it does not "sharpen" because it does not take off any material. Its function is actually very similar to that of leather strop, and in fact can actually be used as a replacement for a strop if necessary.

One of the reasons our tools don't change very much over the years, is because most people don't give them a fair chance. Despite clear instructions, they usually use them wrong, and only once, then declaring, "it doesn't work," instead of giving it a fair chance.

I have that universal socket and the only gripe I have is that pins will get frozen making it hard to separate it from the bolt. I usually will separate if I wiggle the wrench side to side but I recall more than once when it longer than usual for that to work. The socket though is a lifesaver when disassembling my car interior to take out the rear seats and padding as well as both passenger and driver seats. That one socket saves me the trouble of swapping between 3 sockets to do the same job.

The Grizzly Universal Socket works great for certain jobs. I have a set of Gator Grips which are the same thing. I wouldn't replace my complete socket sets with one but for some jobs they are a life saver. Rounded bolts, wing nuts, petcocks, hex bits, hex wrenches, oil drain plugs and other instances they can work very well.

Thank you for making a vid of perfectly GOOD tools and how to use them wrongly. Yankee screwdrivers were the mainstay of joiners building houses before electric tools. Thousands were used and they work well (you arm hurts like hell the first few days lol). Steel are for honing a blade not sharpening it in the first place. Stones are for that. Stud finders work well (well they do here in the UK). it goes on.

greenaum he judged the Yankee screwdriver and it worked perfectly. The socket, he used it in the wrong application and it worked perfectly. The socket to me is a tool you use when using your fingers isn't possible to get things to fingertight. And where speed is essential. Just like 3D printing. It is another step in a big process not its own thing. On its own 3D printing is practically useless, but making an exact replica out of wax or easily melted material means you won't have to sit down and carve a wax model in order to make a mould for casting.

The “sharpening steel” is actually a honing steel. It doesn’t particularly sharpen your knife. It realigns the edge, bring it to the center. Keeping a sharp knife sharp for a long time. I use it everytime I use my blade and I have only had to sharpen my knife once. I’ve had it for two years

Interesting, the yankee screwdriver worked like it was supposed to (although, I wouldn't use one in fear of damaging my project), the grizzly socket worked like it was supposed to, studfinders, in my opinion, work as they are supposed to and knife HONERS (he was NOT holding a sharpener), work as they are supposed to. Although, the one he pulled out of his toolbox looks like it has definitely seen better days and I certainly wouldn't have used it on any of my knives.... and that lamp... when exactly was that lamp purchased? 1982? They aren't expensive and when it, just like any other tool in your inventory becomes worn, you replace it.

That's right, a knife steel is not for sharpening. Use a stone first, then use the steel for removing the wire edge. My father had a hard Arkansas stone for sharpening kitchen knives, and he showed me the wire edge with a high powered magnifier. Then after using the steel, the knife was sharp enough to use as a shaving blade!

Some of these things have limitations like the multisocket but good in a pinch sometimes for odd shaped fasteners. Stud finders work fine for me, if you're not using them not sure how you're locating studs. Hopes and prayers? Also handy when you're not familiar with a house and how it's constructed. Went to place a flush mount inset tp holder in someone's bathroom, only one wall next to the toilet. No matter where I placed the stud finder around the most typical mount location it kept indicating an obstruction. A rather wide one (much wider than a stud) and vertical as well. Unsure of what was in the interior wall I cut carefully into the drywall, discovered there was a heating duct right there where I didn't expect to find one. Had I just pitched it thinking 'this thing doesn't work' I'd have slammed right into the duct and cut it all to hell. Gotta be smarter than the tool sometimes.

Same as that here. You know, if you drill a correctly sized pilot hole, a Yankee 'driver is a very efficient tool to use. I've run thousands of 4-6" screws with one and it's been incredibly useful over the years. One thing I will say is that you need to practice to become skilled in using a Yankee driver. If you always reach for a Makita/DeWalt drill-driver, you'll never like the Yankee and that will be your own fault! :)
