How to Correct Common Mistakes with a Whetstone Sharpener

Are you struggling with using a whetstone sharpener? In this video, I'll share the mistakes I've made and how I corrected them to achieve a perfectly sharpened knife.

🔪 First Mistake: Not Enough Pressure
If you're not pushing down hard enough, especially on harder steels like D2, it will take much longer to remove metal. I'll show you how to apply the right amount of pressure using a simple finger gauge technique.

✏️ Second Mistake: Not Using a Sharpie
Using a Sharpie to mark the knife edge helps ensure you're holding the correct angle. I'll demonstrate how to use a wide tip Sharpie to mark and test your knife edge for consistent sharpening.

🔍 Third Mistake: Not Recognizing the Burr
Understanding what a burr feels like is crucial. I'll guide you through starting with a lower grit stone to define the burr and improve your sharpening technique.

🪓 Step-by-Step Sharpening Process
Follow along as I show you a close-up of my sharpening process, including tips for maintaining consistent angles and pressure. Learn how to use different grit stones effectively and achieve a razor-sharp edge.
