Sharpening Gyuto

Is that a touch of flex I see in the still shot opening of the video? or an illusion, or I'm crazy. I've been wondering lately whether people apply right and left hand force evenly, or one more than the other.

If this is too off topic for this thread or forum ignore me.

Thanks for another great video.

Just shadows and light. There pressure is applied by my left hand directly over the edge.

For a guy from Jersey you're not half bad. All bad jokes aside, great video Chef, thanks for sharing.

Meh, I'm alright.

What diamond plate are you using? I need one and can't decide which one to use for this exact purpose?

[Gravy Power]

Thanks dude, very helpful. Keep posting.

Theory, how old/used are those 2 stones? correct me if I'm wrong, but they're the same as Dave's starter set? Perhaps the camera angle, but they look wicked thin compared to when new. Great video also, appreciate All of you guys taking the time to share

It's an Atoma 140 that I stuck an Atoma 1200 replacement pad on the back for double sided win.

Yeah, the bester 1200 and rika 5k are both kinda old. There's maybe 2mm left on the rika and I'll have to mount the bester soon if I wish to continue using it.
