Keeping your hunting knife sharp at all times is a must in the field. One of the best ways to do it is to touch the edge up after each time you use it—and the easiest way to do that is with a portable field sharpener.
The Spyderco ProFile Fine/Medium Sharpener (pictured at top) offers a medium-grit stone for very dull edges and a fine-grit stone for edge finishing and/or touch-ups. A convenient pocket carry leather case is included. For more, click on www.shopblade.com/profile-finemedium-w8595?lid=SSfbbl101112
