Overview of my sharpening technique

I would hope this goes without saying, but I will state it regardless; I am not a professional. The knives on my videos are my own, as are the sharpening stones I use. Everything I showcase, has been purchased by myself, or given to me by friends. What I do, is simply for my own enjoyment, and experience. This is not an all inclusive instructional. It is just hitting the main points of how I sharpen a knife. Since I tend to allow the knife to follow it's own trajectory, my edges have a higher convexity than many who "lock their wrists". I have never found that way of sharpening comfortable, though it does help remove some of the rounding. I don't shy away from convexing, so it suits me perfectly. Sharpening is a personal thing, and you have to find what works for you.
