>>1054983If I need to sharpen at home I use the Gatco diamond hone jig, when i'm out I carry my DMT fine/ultra fine diamond hone, there really is nothing better for D2. Most of the time though D2 knives almost never need resharpening. If they need a touch-up a few strops on the leather with some green compound gets them hair popping sharp again, or if i'm out just the leather belt or a piece of cardboard will do to strop on. Stropping will keep your knives sharp. Sharpening is for when you mess up the edge.
My D2 Knives of Alaska Bush Camp knife. Wicked sharp, does food prep skinning and camp tasks really well. I modded mine for a flatter grind and it carves like a dream. For comparison it's $89 on Amazon , but it's American made with a lifetime warranty, though I probably voided mine changing the grind and adding the jimping. I'm not worried about it. I've blasted it through seasoned mesquite with no problems. I leave that to the Brown bear cleaver now, but it can do it.
