Linyera not only do you have the best job in the world, you are a master craftsman as well. I am impressed.
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

Kershaw Antelope Hunter II Knife -SPECIAL | Trade Me
I personally like these, good shape for skinning, hold their edge and really sturdy blades (don't like the orange one though!)
If you want a really nice knife for a good price have a look at these!

The trick with hand sharping on a stone is to use the entire stone as rushy said so you dont wear a hollow in it and most importantly to maintain a constant angle while working the knife. Originally Posted by Dougie

Dougie, if you have never used a stone before then get someone to show you how. There isn't a great deal of science to it but getting it wrong can put undue wear on the faces of the stone. Also strongly resist the urge to sharpen the knife that you have just purchased as it will not need to be sharpened because you haven't yet used it. If however, one of your many attributes happens to be knife sharpening then I will await the "piss off Rushy" that I deserve.

Ha, Rushy, you're awesome. I googled and youtubed how to. Cam sharpened my SOG knife while I watched. And yes I did go and sharpen the knife I just bought...it was very blunt, I tried to cut some cheese with it and it struggled. Then I tried to saw my palm open with no avail either!
So anyway I have sharpened both. Looking forward to giving them a go. The Bahco knife seems (to noob me) that it would be great for skinning.She loves the free fresh wind in her hair; Life without care. She's broke but it's oke; that's why the lady is a tramp.

CD, I thought I had read previously that they were damn sharp which is why I suggested that Dougie not sharpen hers. What are the odds of Dougie getting a blunt one? I can just see her taking it home and then attacking the concrete footpath with it just so she could use her new stone. Originally Posted by CreepingDeath

Ha ha ha Dougie said cut the cheese VC. Is that and order from the young suballtern telling us old soldiers to haul off and fart?
