These kinds of instructive videos are too rare. No flexing, just a good instructional video that describes the somewhat neglected part of sharpening that's kind of a mystery to new sharpeners. Off to mess up a junker for science. Thank you sir, valuable info.

Great video. I was free hand sharpening for years with mixed results. But it took me awhile to realize the quieter the sound the better my Edge was. Most of the time I was trying to sharpen add a shallower angle. Maybe shooting for a 15-degree when I should have been shooting for a 20 degree bevel. Anyway, I think you did a great job simplifying this idea. Please keep up the good work.

I feel like freehand sharpening came naturally to me. (Could be the hours upon hours of freehand sharpening videos and forums I was reading before I decided to jump in and get some stones.) I was able to get my very first knife the first time it hit the stone to sharper than I ever was able to on either the sharpmaker or the clamp and jig from work sharp and reprofiled my mom's jagged kitchen knife a week later.

The problem is that 99% of the time people aren't tilting it back or upright to that extreme that would result in that obvious sound change. Most of the time it's a couple of degrees or two, especially one side vs. the other. There won't be the sound difference. If people are doing the extreme angles you are describing, they are waaaaaayyyyyyyy off.

the way i learned, when the angle is exactly right, it feels a little bit like it's cutting into the stone a particular way. i'm no expert at all but can get a knife shaving sharp. i use a circular motion because all my stones are small pocket stones. i test sharpness on my thumbnail and then on rolling paper
