That’s fine – it doesn’t upset me. I do not work for WE, so I’m not privy to the day-to-day operations. The WE60 is a new system, and some things are subject to being changed. I have not seen the comment that you are talking about. I also haven’t seen the videos in weeks and don’t know if they have been edited. I’ll watch them again later today…[Read more]

I’m told here in the comments area of a WE video that a “Star Knob” will be implemented. Quote: we have already identified a design change that we’ll be implementing which is to change the hea…

I’m going by what I was told. She can call it what she wants to.

I could not tell if the Delrin retention socket moved while I was sharpening knives. It looked like it stayed put, but I didn’t mark it to see for sure.

As I understand everything, the WE60 is a entry-level sharpening system for people that want a good sharpening system at a lower price. It is not meant to replace the higher end Wicked Edge systems.

Did you not see the link for the article that I wrote on the WE60 above? Post# 58069.

Welcome to the WE family and to the forum, Ribstabsheart!

I prefer using my 17″ laptop on forums and everything really. I rarely use my phone for the internet. I’m fixing to have to buy another laptop because my 14 or so year old Dell Inspiron 17R is becoming obsolete. I don’t play games on my computer, but I definitely want a 17″ laptop that has a backlit keyboard. This Dell has been a great computer. I…[Read more]

I’m not sure exactly how that will be handled. And with new designs things can sometimes change.

I can’t wait to see the upgrades myself, Doug.

It would be nice if the stones were broken in when we bought them. I’m not sure what they would cost but I doubt the machines that broke the stones in would be inexpensive.

I used the new stones on purpose for the article and they didn’t do too bad. The practice knife cut the printer paper. And I…[Read more]

Here is my article on the New Wicked Edge WE60 Sharpener. I hope you guys like it!

I wonder how they got it so quick, and if they had permission to show it?

I just sent my WE60 article to Clay for his approval. As soon as he approves it, I will upload it here on this thread.

Basically, the same. It just depends on which units have the standard vise or the lever-action vise, and the standard angle slide assemblies or the     micro-adjusting lead screw slide assemblies.

August 15th for the basic WE60 model that will have the ‘New’ standard vise and the ‘New’ standard angle slides. The other units will be coming later.

I’m glad to see that she’s finally here! I can’t wait to check the new unit out.

Wow! That is a thin blade.

For food safe blade oiling, mineral oil is best. It is also very inexpensive as well.

Yep, the Wicked Edge systems get knives really sharp. But where they really shine is in reprofiling blades. You get a perfect edge apex.

I gave my Victorinox paring knife to the girls for the kitchen, and they love it.
