Aquí está la respuesta a "Cómo afilar un cuchillo" [Afilado excepcional]

¡Gracias! Es un autoproclamado “descartador” Cuchillos Shieldon channel! I would like to give my own answer to you who have searched for “how to sharpen a knife”. In camps and Bushcraft, how to make effective use of knives is a big point. And in order to maximize the potential of the knife, it is necessary to keep the knife in good condition at all times. So, this time, I will introduce various ways to sharpen the knife, which is indispensable for the outdoors.

 

Sharpness is the life of a knife

A knife is basically a tool that specializes in the action of “cutting.” In other words, sharpness is the life of a knife. If the blade is dull, there is a high possibility that extra force will be applied or the cutting edge will slip, causing the hand to be sliced. Nothing is more dangerous than an inseparable knife and a group of high school girls. With that said, I would like to teach you how to sharpen a sword that can be cut well.

 

The basic grindstones are # 1000 and # 3000

Depending on the steel material, # 1000 and # 3000 are sufficient for the number of grindstones unless it is a large-scale sharpening such as re-angling or repairing defects. I use Suehiro’s “Kitchen Double-sided Grinding Stone # 3000 / # 1000”. You can sharpen it well for its cheap price. # 1000 wears faster, so that’s the only drawback.

First, soak the grindstone in water for about 10 minutes. If water does not penetrate the grindstone, it will not be possible to finish it beautifully. Some grindstones do not need to be soaked in water, so follow the product instructions. When grinding, lay a wet cloth or rubber plate underneath to prevent the grindstone from moving. Suehiro’s grindstone is unnecessary because it has a rubber pedestal.

First, sharpen with a # 1000 grind according to the angle of the blade. The most important thing in sharpening is to fix the angle. If the angle is off, the more you sharpen it, the harder it will be to cut. If you cut your hand here, you will have a hard time when you make a fine count, so sharpen it well. Another important thing is to never wash away the sharpening juice. When the sharpening juice dries, add water to sharpen it.

Next, sharpen with # 3000, which is even finer.

After sharpening with # 3000, the blade will look like this. Honestly, it’s not working so well because the sharpening unevenness is noticeable. Well, even with this, the paper can be cut quickly with plenty of room. You can even shave your hair.

Mirror finish makes it even sharper

Normally, the sharpening up to this point is sufficient, but I would like to do “mirror finish” for sharpness and durability. Mirror finish, as the name implies, is to polish the blade like a mirror, which gives the blade the highest level of sharpness and also improves durability and corrosion resistance. I use “# 6000 grindstone” and “self-made leather grind”.

First, use a # 6000 grindstone to erase fine irregularities. The grindstone used is King’s “S-1”.

Even at this stage, it has become quite beautiful. But here is the important point of mirror finish.

This is my own “leather grind”. It’s just a matter of pasting leather on wood and impregnating the floor with a polishing agent (Pica), but the effect is outstanding. Unlike the grindstone, the leather grind sharpens the blade toward the back. Be careful as the leather will be damaged in an instant if it slides toward the edge (blade). If you are interested in self-made leather grind, please see the following article. I write in detail how to make it. You can easily custom your own leather grind with cowhide and Picard!

I sharpened it. How about that? My favorite doctor pepper is clearly shown. Doctor pepper is five times as delicious as cola, isn’t it? Also root beer.

 

Increased durability with secondary bevel

I have a secondary bevel (micro bevel) here, depending on my taste. The secondary bevel is the part where only the tip of the edge is sharpened by changing the angle.

 

Increasing the edge angle means more durability at the cost of less sharpness. However, when it comes to sharpness, it won’t be so dull that you can tell the difference unless you custom an extreme angle. If you attach a secondary bevel, it will be so long that you can feel “that? Is it better to hold the blade?” If it’s really troublesome, I think it’s okay to omit this step.

 

Resumen

The above is how to sharpen a knife with outstanding sharpness. Keep in mind that no matter how good a steel expensive knife is, if it doesn’t cut, it’s just iron scrap. One last important thing: The key to sharpening a knife is the result, not the method. No matter how strange the sharpening method is, if it cuts, it is justice. However, there are sharpening methods that are easy to succeed. This is also justice, as I have been able to custom a knife that cuts well this way.
