Sensei's sage technique isn't very...", meaning that Kakashi knew about Minato's Sage Mode, when he was alive. Thanks for the clarification. I was reading part of the Manga for something else and suddenly had the idea.

He himself admitted that he isn't good at Sage Techs and using Sage Mode otherwise so he doesn't use it for battle. I think it's more accurate to say that he never got around using it for battle and so never got around to perfecting it. Probably because of his early death.
