Like a lot of outdoors men I have a very tough time keeping my knife sharp.  I’m real bad about knife abuse and that doesn’t bode well for a sharp knife.  So, to help us all out I went looking for the best video I could find to help us learn how to sharpen our knives and to keep them sharp while afield.

For me, sitting around the campfire is a good time to take the old knife out and give it a good strapping to fine tune that edge.  But, I don’t always do it while sitting around the fire and so I find myself having to do something with the knife before I can take care of the deer I just shot.  The information in this video just might lend itself handy someday and I hope it helps you as well.

When all else fails I just call on my knife professional friend Magpie to do the sharpening for me!
