It is Harrelson Stanley and a new SideWays sharpening jig called the Sharp Skate.

Wow, the video is like the bob ross of sharpening. Or Mr. Rogers. After digging around 150$ for that jig is a bit much. I like the Lee Valley jig as the blade angle is set by a reference and it's less than 1/3 the cost. But hey, that's just me.

LOL Mr.Rodgers! That's a good one!

I just ran across this site with Derek Cohen posting about the jig.

Glad to know that you have two hands! Be careful who you share it with. That kind of information could become classified one day, and then you would be able to still tell us, it's just that you would have to kill us afterwards. :D
