sharpening in the Field

[R3XXY]

i use a DMT folding diamond hone, coarse on one side and fine on the other. it works very well, need to make myself a little strop for finishing off with.

Tell a lie, I've sharpened others knives, who brought blunt ones out.

That's the main reason I take a decent kit with me to meets, I always end up putting an edge on something for someone.

As an aside, has anyone used white sharpening compound or even jewelers rouge? I'm thinking I might try them out.

I have some to load my strop, makes a difference.

And we were very grateful for it!
