Conditioning Stone Surfaces- Japanese Knife Imports
Conditioning Stone Surfaces- Japanese Knife Imports Tube. Duration : 6.10 Mins.
In this video, we discuss how the condition of a sharpening stone's surface can effect your sharpening. We explain the difference between natural and synthetic stones in this regard. If you are wondering whether to leave the scratches on your stone's surface after flattening or clean them off with a nagura (or something similar), this video is for you. Our goal is to explain how these things function and what kind of results they leave, so you can make a more educated decision in your sharpening. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at Jon@JapaneseKnifeImports.com or look us up at www. JapaeseKnifeImports.com *The subject matter in this video is geared specifically towards kitchen knife sharpening. It can also apply to outdoor knife sharpening. However, straight razor sharpeners and woodworkers often require cleaner and smoother stone surfaces on the whole.

Sharpening Steels/Honing Rods and Japanese Knives- Japanese Knife Imports
Sharpening Steels/Honing Rods and Japanese Knives- Japanese Knife Imports Video Clips. Duration : 5.32 Mins.
In this video, we discuss why Sharpening Steels/Honing Rods should not be used with Japanese Knives. In order to explain this, we cover the basics of how honing steels work and why they work on certain knives but not others. We hope you find this video to be helpful. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at Jon@JapaneseKnifeImports.com or look us up at www.JapaneseKnifeImports.com. Thanks. -Japanese Knife Imports *As i mention in the video, I understand that for many professional chefs, there will be times where they really need to use a honing rod. I'm not against that in every situation. I just want people to understand what will happen if they do this and present some alternative solutions to touching up a knife's edge quickly.
