Cheap Ceramic Folder

[ex-member BareThrills]

Took a punt on a cheap ceramic folder from alibaba. Twas only £2.60 with free delivery. I was after something light for mountain trips and I think it will do me nicely. Unsure if you can sharpen these on a non ceramic stone but i have a ceramic on my doublestuff so all is good.

Not bad at all steve. There is a bit of a wave in it as you can see on the pics but its sharp. Not shaving sharp but ill get it on the stones tonight and see what i can do with it.
