Tips for Sharpening Your Tactical Knife

It’s sometimes said that a man is only as good as his tools, which is why it’s tremendously important to keep a sharp tactical knife at the ready. Whether you’re going on an impromptu hunting excursion or relying on the knife for protection, it pays to get rid of that dull edge right away. The first step is to give the knife a once-over with a diamond sharpener or some other coarse, fast-cutting stone.
Concentrate your attention on sharpening the CRKT knife in a uniform fashion. That means keeping the sharpness equal on both sides of the blade. You can benefit from the use of an angle guide, unless you’re an old hand at this. You’ll be able to tell that you’ve sharpened the knife enough when you raise a burr. Finish the process by polishing the edge smooth on both sides.
