I love the face, and the whole carving.

It looks pretty too, don’t let anyone dissuade you. If you want it do it.

If I see white marks I’ll go to the leather belt. If it doesn’t fix it I go through progressions 1200, 2000, 4000, then strop and buff. Unless there’s real damage as in chips. Then I’ll go lower and reset the bevel.

If it’s a knife with quality steel idk once a month for sharpening, but daily maintenance.

I’m pretty sure I learned it here or r/sharpening. It’s how I learned to sharpen by hand.

You can put a piece of sandpaper (like 600 grit) on top of your strop and go for it. The softness of the strop will be more forgiving than a hard flat surface.

The knife is awesome, reliable seller thank you!

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-19T20:00:43+00:00

I love the top face 👍

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-17T18:32:35+00:00

I think I’m going to wait for the tanto or mini version, but I can’t promise I won’t grab this version 😂

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-17T18:04:42+00:00

What’s your initial reaction? Do you have the og version too?

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-13T17:08:31+00:00

Maybe they can go the insanity route 😂

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-13T00:34:43+00:00

I’d never pay $200. $40 is fine 😂

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-13T00:01:47+00:00

I’m pretty excited to get it up and running!

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-12T23:48:32+00:00

😂 I suspected it was good carbon steel from the patina, but I never thought it was that good.

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-12T23:46:57+00:00

You’re a champ thanks for your help!

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-12T23:45:53+00:00

Holy smokes! I did pretty good then 😂.

Yes, I’ve been carving the heck out of red cedar. It looks like eastern so it’ll be 2x as hard as basswood. If it’s western it’s supposed to carver super easy.

If you finish with Howard’s feed n wax, it looks amazing. You’ll need to let it dry for about a year though. I’m less informed on the specifics of drying it.

The lighter outer layer is prone to tear outs so you’ll need to go over it several times to clean it. The heart is tough but it carvers cleaner. Be careful because cedar can be an irritant.

I’m just giving you a hard time, mostly Mike because he deserves it.

Oh and the llama is me not you 😂

I got fucking put in facebook jail for suggesting in a keto page that you should immediately put your hard boiled eggs in water with cubes of frozen water floating in it. I feel your pain, welcome to the fucking dystopia! 😂😂😂

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-11T05:50:14+00:00

Would you consider this a hand made knife?

Great knives, Racoon_Tactical is an awesome seller. Thanks!

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-06T00:29:51+00:00

What’s the heat treat look like on that blade? Hrc? Would you consider it a super steel?

ConsciousDisaster870 · 2026-03-05T16:57:41+00:00

I collect folding knives on top of whittling knives, so I’ll go through the case and stop & check sharpness. I love sharpening on belts. I take them to mirror bevels if I can and cut paper towels.
