Where did I see this recently? I watched the whole thing. Just remember, "Angles can be adjusted fractionally or grossly."

k.

 

[Vertigo]

Hmm. Slap some sandpaper on the "undersurface of the adjustable guide bar" and you can chamfer the spines of your knives as you f*cking sharpen them.

Win.

 

[ecchef]

"The old edge is obliterated" and replaced by...? Why the hell would you bother to measure the guide bar height if the stone is mounted on marshmallows? This has got to be the most poorly engineered piece of crap I've seen yet.
But, it's got a nicely engraved patent plate! :thumbsup:
Give it up, Sal. :disdain:

 

[Vertigo]

if the stone is mounted on marshmallows?

:jumpy:

As soon as he started grinding metal and the stone began to, ugh... "sensually undulate," I cracked up.

 

[Eamon Burke]

:rofl2:

 

[ecchef]

How much you think that weighs?

Hey Sal...here's an example of "two parallel surfaces"...:doublebanghead:

"To test it's sharpness, I'll now chop this branch from my back yard."
Forget the Carter "3 finger test", the Niloc folded paper push cut, or popping hairs as edge tests! - I say we adopt the Verzi bushwack as the new standard for kitchen knife sharpness!

Also: 5:29 - he misspells his own last name.

 

[SpikeC]

I really liked the branch chop! Also how he did the fine grinding first and the coarse grinding second. 4 adjustments instead of 2 makes it more fun!
I wonder what kind of branch it was? Maybe ironwood? Or ebony?

 

[jason]

Branch? Here, we call that a twig.
That system seems like it's incredibly more complicated than it should be.

[ecchef]

Hmmm. if you replace the stone holder with a piece of channel iron you have a micarta press.

Good re-purposing... um, I mean great! I'd love one of those for my homemade micarta.

I had to watch this a few times just to fully take in all of the carrot abuse, dish scrubbie misappropriation, weird lighter-gun and cross-fade transitions, amazing sound track, and random skull ring. The French do knuckle head or "la tête jarret" with a special kinda flair.

-Le ***?

 

[Eamon Burke]

Why is he making small, buffed carrots out of larger, less buffed carrots? Seriously, why?

 

[mr drinky]

I seem to remember these tourne carrots served quite often in France -- though I doubt they take a kitchen scrub sponge to them. Outside of the cutting technique, that guy gives me the feeling that he may go postal in the kitchen at any moment. And if you eat at his restaurant don't return anything to the kitchen or he'll burn your house down.

k.

 

[El Pescador]

It's so "french" I can't understand it, but I'm sure its won numerous foreign film festival awards...

 

[WillC]

I'd say he likely finds the carrot more fascinating than the rose.:tongue:

 

[ecchef]

Wouldn't be surprised, Brocks! And, unless I counted wrong, he only did 6 sides instead of the required 7 for true tourné.

Knife skills aren't bad... just funny, be sure to read the text Also note the user name...

I'm also not sure how to embed these

Ahhhhh.......that was ummmm......."special"

 

[Dave Martell]

You know it was sort of cool back years ago to see a couple of the guys doing this but lately it seems very un-cool and somewhat ridiculous since just about everyone with a half sharp tool, a video camera, and a face is making these videos.

I guess what I'd like to see at this point is a good slip up and a juggler vain pissing all over the place - now that would be entertaining!

They did it with axes right? I know carter did something like this.

Axes, machetes, giant Bowies, some kitchen knives, etc
