How to Sharpen A Hunting Knife

[@Ghillie-bp6tl]

Have seen a lot of material on this topic. This was perfect, digestible format, Dr. Grant.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks Ghillie!

Great video, Grant! All in one video.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks Nolan!

This was a great video to teach men an old valuable technique. Thank-you Mr Grant.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@travisethridge4062]

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Travis - You are welcome!

Love my leather. Really takes it to the next level and that is a fine-looking knife.

Thanks for such a helpful instructional video! Right down to the sound! Especially the part of shaving the hair off of your arm (my dear Daddys old trick)! Take care and God Bless.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks for the kind words Tom!

Great video. Thanks for the lesson.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Glad you liked it!

Great video! I also have the Alaska Guide Series 192, fantastic knife. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks and that Cabela's knife is great!

[@kennethlangford5797]

I don't know what it is about your teaching techniques but they always seem to make a lot more sense than other people. I'd never heard somebody talk about using your thumb as a fence makes a lot of sense no rhyme intended

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks Kenneth!

[@rajibjoshi9647]

very worthwhile video to learn a worthwhile skill

[@HeyImFlex]

I would love to see how you re sharpen fixed blade broadheads! Great video man! I’ve learned a lot from you.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Zach - I shoot a M3 - 3 blade fixed head. I'll try to share how I sharpen them! They can get very sharp!! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@floridalife5342]

Great video! This is something I'd like my boys to learn how to do. What kind of stone(s) would you recommend?

[@GrowingDeerTV]

The DMT Diamond stores are very forgiving and work well! The course and extra fine are great stones to start with - and of course a quality strop.

[@michaelwilhelm562]

Great video.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks Michael!

[@Izziana]

good video my compadre

[@mel_2506]

Another great video...

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Thanks Mel!

[@Lightingfreak777]

Thanks mate, great advice

[@garyhouser3533]

Hi Grant you mentioned about using a ceramic stone to sharpen your knife. Where can you buy one and what grit is it.

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Gary - I use both diamond (DMT stones) and ceramic (Spyderco) stones to sharpen pending on how dull the knife is. I often start with a DMT course and then a Sypderco fine and then a strop.

[@BlackAngusReviews]

Thanks!

[@hal3907]

Very nice video thanks

[@ModernAdventures-w1u]

I've got a fixed blade by the company ranch knives. It's made of Damascus steel, and I was wondering if the process is the same? I'm a newbie.

[@ModernAdventures-w1u]

Oh, also, which sharpening stone would you recommend?

[@josephfagiani4712]

does that knife come with a sheath?

[@allenwilson9656]

He took it out of the sheath , most high quality end knives come in a sheath . He actually took it out of the sheath at the 1:57 mark

[@GrowingDeerTV]

Joseph - It does! to learn more about that knife, checkout:www.cabelas.com/shop/en/cabelas-alaskan-guide-series-xxx-knife-by-buck-knives-100815873
