Best and cheapest? A basic whetsone with a coarse and a fine side. But that does require a little effort on your part.

Pull-through sharpeners do a mediocre job but they are super easy to use.

A basic pull through works fine for kitchen knives.

>>8302895
What about electric pull-throughers? I've seen some really cheap (and used) ones.

>>8302889
Damn who is this semen demon

Sarina Valentina.

>>8302895
So what am I looking for in a whestone exactly?

>>8302934
Thanks bro

>>8302927
How new are you? That's a man btw.

Anyway OP I use a flat surface and sandpaper. Works well.

>>8302947
> flat surface
What's that? I'm new to /ck. Is it expensive tho?

>>8302947
>That's a man btw.
nope, 100% girl

>>8302981
99, -1% for her ultrafeminine penis in the place of pussy.

>>8302985
only women can have feminine penises

>>8302992
kek'd @ mental gymnastics. Just admit you're 1% gay, it's really not hard at all, you fucking faggot.

>>8303006
I'm not attracted to her though. I just respect that she's a beautiful woman :)

>>8303010

Get a load of this faggot.

daily reminder that sex changes are impossible

>>8303055
daily reminder that with a lot of girls you won't know for the fuck of you if she used to be a man unless she told you in which case she still might be just fucking with your insecure ass

WTF SHE HAS A DICK

GODDAMIT WHY WOULD YOU POST HER

>>8302937
Google "kitchen knife whetstone grit". Grit is the important thing. Too low and you're just scratching your edge, too high and you might be sitting there for hours. Depends on the condition and quality of your knife.

>>8302909

Same as the manual type. They do a mediocre job but they're easy to use.

>>8303202
By mediocre job what do you mean exactly? Like I only care about sharpness pretty much.
>>8303197
I also need to sharpen fighting knives.

>>8303288

>Cheap method of sharpening a knife/
Use a steel?

>>8302972
Well a thick plane of glass works well enough, but you can buy even flatter I guess flats for like machining and shit. Just a nice flat surface cause obviously you want the edge to make even contact.

Countertop works too though lol.

>>8303062
Oh please, surgical fake vaginas are nothing at all like the real thing. Only a blind retard wouldn't notice the glaring differences.

That anon is correct, sex change is not possible. Only heinous disfigurement.

>>8303360
You haven't seen any though.

>>8303392
It couldn't even get wet

>>8303062
Are you serious? Do I need to bring out Chris Chan?

>>8303392
i know there's a webm. someone right now has it on his harddrive. can't be long until it's posted. you know which one i mean!

>>8303062
>she

there's that word again

also your entire post is untrue

>>8303444
Trips of truth

>>8303444
Your entire life is untrue you retarded faggot, get out of the closet already: it's obvious you want some dick to rape your face.

Guys is this true?

>>8302889

>>8303092

>>8302889
Goddamn she's fucking fine!

What's her name?

Lmaoooo

>>8302895
>>8302906

I wish I had taken a picture of the knife I fixed the other day that had been repeatedly "sharpened" on a pull through. Took ages to fix.

OP, get an angle clamp system, anyone can use them and they work fine unless you're sharpening a long blade, and even then you can make it work. A Sharpmaker is also a good bet, especially if you're just maintaining edges.

>>8303613
A honing steel doesn't sharpen knives.

>>8303888
Aye but a sharpening steel like the one pictured does

Also nice digits

kek

>>8302947
>implying men can't be semen demons.

>>8302889
Turn a ceramic coffee mug upside down. Hold knife blade at 45 degree angle to rough ring on underside of muh. Run back and forth until desired sharpness is achieves.

>>8303360
>surgical fake vaginas
I had the pleasure of treating one of those up off and on for a few years... Highly recommended.

What I liked was it never gets loose no matter what. Maybe over many years, but with normal use, nope.

>>8305051
:^/

>>8304743
Kek, I know physics too well to believe that easily crushable mug can sharpen a KNIFE. Nice try tho.

>>8305158
>that easily crushable mug
what sort of fucking ceramic mugs are you using?

>>8303829
What do you recommend for angle clamp systems?

I have a lansky one but that is way too small and inconsistent for kitchen knives.

Is dropping buku bucks on a wicked edge / edgepro sharpening system my only option?

>>8305283
>buku

>>8305292
sorry meant beaucoup.

>>8303010

kek

>>8305420
What's funny? Or are you one of those oppressors who scream about HURR DURRRRRR MENTAL ILLNESS SUICIDE RATE KEK CHECK YOUR PRIVILEGE

>>8305158
You clearly don't know shit, pal. Coffee mug sharpening is pro-tier.

>>8305283
I've used my lansky on blades up to 8 inches long just fine and I think moving the clamp would work for longer ones. They're nice since the kits allow for heavy reprofiling and getting a really keen edge right out of the box.

The sharpmaker, for instance, isn't so good at reprofiling a damaged blade and expanding it to do so costs more. It's better for routine maintenance, though, and can handle serrated knives.

>>8305283
Also maybe look into getting a gatco clamp. I use that with lansky stones.

>>8303360
>Oh please, surgical fake vaginas are nothing at all like the real thing. Only a blind retard wouldn't notice the glaring differences.
there are cases of them fooling gynecologists, srs has come a long way in the last 10 years. there's of course many hack jobs, and those are the ones you hear about

>>8303415
incorrect

You need a good whetstone, doublesided, with one side around 300-400 grit and the other around 1000-1500 grit. Look up youtube vids on how to sharpen properly.
If you know what you are doing you can also use a belt sander and a cotton cloth buffing wheel for sharpening and removing the burr. Nothing is quicker, but nothing can fuck up you knife quicker , either. Use low grits (80-100), very light pressure and make very quick passes, like less than 2 seconds for each pass on one side of an 8 inch knife. That will ensure that the friction heat doesn't destroy the temper of the steel. Remove the burr with the buffing wheel and rough buffing wax.

>>8305937
Also: A steel is only good for refreshing/righting an already sharp edge. use a smooth stell for that. An aggressive grooved steel is good for nothing, really. A diamond steel removes material like a whetstone, but less well. A ceramic rod rights the edge, but also removes a tiny bit of material andresharpens, so it can be a decent compromise. But it is just a compromise.

>>8304743
>45 degree angle
Are you sharpening scissors?

>>8302934
Top kek

The WorkSharp WSKTS is widely recommended (no personal experience). It is basically a miniature belt sander designed for sharpening knives.

>>8305942
Yes.

>>8305951
o-ok

>>8305951
OwO

Are these a meme?

>>8305965
Look at them
Obviously they are

>>8307681
Obviously. It couldn't be that in 2016 there's actually something more progressive than a friction brick or sharpening electroscamstation. Silly. Corporations know better what works and what doesn't, if it's not popular it must be shit. How else!?

>>8305283
Apex Pro is the best clamp system.

>>8302927
Google says her name is Busty Redhead

YW

>>8302981

That thing is a dude, regardless of any hormones or fake tits added to it, and it will always be a dude.

No ovaries? No womb? Then it's not a woman, and never will be.

OP, just get a cheapy pull through sharpener and use right before you cut anything.

How often do you need to sharpen your knives that you need some hundreds of dollars setup?
The vast majority of home chefs don't need anything more than a 40$ victorinox and a pull through with a steel. Save nice knives and expensive setups for the low volume professionals they are actually useful for.
