    Hey you know your comment is just going to be pushed down right? so people aren’t going to see it very soon. Also you know what you could do? Make your own videos….

    Re: sharpening on a cup… BAD IDEA!!!
    If you are going to sharpen your own knives, you need to buy a nice stone and take very good care of it. Expect to spend at least $30-$50 on a stone.

    Next: A 45º angle is WAY too steep for any knife. If you are sharpening a European knife (Henckels, Wusthof), you should use a 22º angle. If you are sharpening a Japanese blade (Shun, Misono), you should use a 16º angle. If you don’t know what you are doing, don’t sharpen your own knives!

    Hey, in case you didn’t read, it’s College Chef not Michelin Chef not that you have any stars yourself. It’s an info video not a course… btw, brush up on your punctuation. It sucks.

    Why do my knives get tiny bits of rust after I have washed and towel-dry them? Also, @scottylaw, you’re a douche-bag, right above Jon Gosselin and right under Kanye West…..BITTER, PARTY OF ONE, YOUR TABLE IS NOW AVAILABLE!

    @scottylaw: Question… So, if you’re so experienced, why are you looking up knife skills on YouTube???

    And secondly, you’ve obviously missed the whole premise of the show….

    You sir are a tool box.

    Works better on the back of a crock pot or something larger – but any fired clay will work (plant pot, ect…) But use a steel if you have one. You can even use the back (spine) of another knife as a steel…

  11. CollegeChef1 says:

    yeah it works if your blade gets kinda dull. I wouldn’t say to do it all the time just when it gets a bit dull.

  12. 1DAngus1 says:

    does that sharpening trick with the cup actually work? sounds like it would be horrible for your blade

  13. CollegeChef1 says:

    not really but I like the sturdiness of the knife

  14. chanmenh says:

    45 degree angle? that’s going to dull your knife
