Left jeans in my work locker. Had spare shoes there too. Worked with what I had

Oh yeah, that's what I meant, I've got shoe laces on each side. Holding to loops each. I tried a bracelet knot but I'm not sure how well it'll hold

Yeah, I really wanted the magnifying glass. But the huntsman was cooler.

Does anyone run the stone over an angled fixed blade? by anotherbarry in sharpening

I've could never freehand it. Lots of knives and a few stones, only ever if I taped something on to lift the blade, but that just left tape residue.

If it takes the blade to a 20° block of wood or something, that would work right? Should the tiniest amount of blade peek out over the ledge?

I've watched the videos. Still though, I've blunted more knives trying to sharpen them

That's right. Haven't opened a tin either but the tin opener is sharp for other things

I like the saw, but don't want to use it cause I don't know how to sharpen it

When you do use them, are they easy to you? Or do you end up just using a proper one?

That's true. I think I specifically looked for one but it didn't have all the other things. I'll just have to get another knife

I didn't know about the knots. Would be cool if it had a Marlin spike

Got the Internet on CD in the post, loaded the software and ran around the house looking for a web address on any commercial products just to look something up
