I cannot thank you enough for posting this video! I do not know why but I never thought about grinding the backside of the blade. Such a simple solution for a big giant problem. Again thank you very much, I have the utmost respect for you at this point!

It's almost always way easier to bring the top down to meet the existing edge than vice versa or a combination. Not only does it preserve the existing cutting profile but it eliminates the need to create a new edge. But it's good to know how to bring the edge up also, because sometimes that does need to happen.

Our removal techniques are a little different, but the general idea I use is the same. One think i do is to use a marker to draw my pattern out on the knife itself first. I do that on both sides. It seems to help. But you always have to “eyeball” it to make sure it looks aesthetically pleasing, or as close as you can get.

Glad you didn't break it...there are enough abused knives out there... When things return to something more normal and your back at work there's plenty of time make another video with a broken tip

Not sure if you talked about thinning the edge but that could make for an interesting video too.

I'm wondering... Why bother grinding from the cutting edge side at all? By doing so, you completely modify the original curvature profile at the front of the blade. Every broken tip I've encountered, I just grind the spine down and smooth the transition from that side so it doesn't make every knife look like a santoku. By grinding from the cutting edge as well, it means that the metal behind the edge (near the tip) will be thicker than the original knife geometry. Grinding from spine down only preserves the thickness behind the edge and doesn't reduce any lifespan of the blade.

if the chip is minor, its easier to grind from the edge up and it wont effect the blade very much. With that said, you are right in that if you grind too much you will end up with a thick edge. its important to asses your own knife and see which makes the most sense. Grinding up from the edge or grinding down from the spine. I usually find that the best is a combination of both.

I think you get enough broken knives back to the store Vincent. Never brake a good knife just for a educational video.
