The 3-Step Method of sharpening is very quick to learn or teach in person. There for some reason seems to be a little difficulty that some sharpeners are having when they just watch videos or read how to do it. I think that it is a hugely innovative technique which completely eliminates most of the problems learning, teaching and actually sharpening knives, and it allows everyone to get a high sharpness edge with minimal equipment and time invested. Along with that, it offers a great tool for experienced sharpeners to be able to reduce sharpening times, get the sharpest edge whatever the grit, have a healthy edge that will offer maximum edge retention given the attributes of the edge angle, edge finish, and steel, and offers a awesome way to deal with burr prone steels.
That being said, every experienced sharpener I have asked about burr-free sharpening tell me the same thing: They couldn't get it to work well enough to use it. I wanted to know why, so I started a thread on a forum for sharpening, as this issue has been bothering me for sometime:
