Mors Kochanski recommends a straightforward approach using just a few basic tools: wet and dry sandpaper and a small wooden block. The block measures 5 x 15 cm, making it incredibly portable for your outdoor adventures. In this demonstration, we'll be using both 240 and 600-grit sandpaper. The 240-grit paper is reserved for edge repair after serious chipping, while the 600-grit paper is all you need for regular maintenance.
To secure the sandpaper to the block, we'll be using double-sided tape for an easy and secure attachment. Once your sandpaper is in place, the sharpening process becomes a breeze. Place your knife edge flat against the sandpaper and slide it gently. Avoid applying excessive pressure to prevent damaging the sandpaper and your blade.
To achieve a finer edge, we'll also demonstrate the use of backstrokes and a strop. While it may not provide the most refined edge, this method is more than adequate for tasks like creating fine wood curls in the wilderness.
Whether you're a seasoned bushcrafter or just starting out, this technique will prove invaluable for keeping your knife in top shape during your outdoor adventures.
