knife sharpening help...

I can't sharpen anything free-hand on a stone or steel. Has to have fixed angles or something similar.
I have a Warthog v-sharp and bought them for my daughters. It works well on the kitchen knives and is easy to use and works well. I know that changing the little steel holders is a tad challenging and does require some dexterity. If you've had a stroke, will you be able to use it? But I would not suggest it for use in the field.
The Warthog V-Curve also works well and is much simpler to use.
I sharpen my 2-blade broadheads with a Rada and strop to get shaving sharp results using a very light pressure draw stroke. It is REALLY simple. Should work on a knife just as well and easy to use in the field if needed.
Best of luck on your choice.Last edited by SJP51; 11-25-2021, 06:39 AM.

I ordered one of these yesterday and tonight I've taken several knifes from rounded blades to shaving.
So... Thanks!

Warthog, spyderco, & Wicked edge are easier and work very well.
None will remove the amount of metal that a Work sharp will.

Warthog is good. Work sharp will chew a blade to a nub if you have a hard time with dexterity. Especially on the work sharp you are supposed to pull the knife up before it gets to the tip or you will pull back and extremely sharp butter knife tipped pocket knife. Knowing what I know Tiger, the warthog or something similar is a pretty good option for ya.

Worksharp.
Watch the videos.
Work with your cheap/damaged blades first.

After just a tiny bit of practice I can get a shaving edge on just about any knife with a worksharp
