Bushcraft Knife Sharpening

Sharpening a knife can be a frustrating and time consuming process, but it doesn't need to be. In this updated video, Mike demonstrates his method for sharpening any type of grind using simple bench stones and a leather strop.

Boy was I surprised to see a video from BCNW in my notifications! The last video of yours I have seen was 6 years ago & I've remain subscribed w/ notifications. Regardless it's great to see you putting out some top tier content again & I'll have to catch up on the handful of vids you have put out in the last year or two.

[@BCNW1]

Thanks Larry, and yes the notification thing seems to be a problem with a lot of my subscribers. I'll keep creating more content and hopefully that will help everyone find me again. All the best to you in 2023!

What grit do you consider a "course" stone? I couldn't see the grit # for your 3rd package. Do you use 150, 1000 and finally 8000? So ideally. 3 stones?

[@BCNW1]

Ideally yes, I use the three water stones plus a Nagura stone and recommend this setup if you can afford to purchase them all. If not, then I would go with the 150 for the first water stone, or the DMT coarse continuous diamond. I don’t know what grit the DMT is. It is just labeled as coarse.
