A SHTF knife is one of the most, if not the most important tools you can have during a collapse. When hiding out at a bug out cabin or having to deal with a major collapse a knife will likely be used regularly for both smaller and larger tasks.
The tasks may vary from cleaning fish and game to hacking wood. A knife may also be used for self-protection if that type of situation ever arises.
It's also vital to know that if a prepper does not properly sharpen their knives and they become dull over time, it will become an ineffective and inefficient tool. If this happens a knife can slip and cut you, only making things worse or creating a life-threatening emergency when SHTF is already happening.
The last thing you need is having to deal with another emergency when you're already dealing with the one at hand.
Luckily there's a trick that'll help you sharpen your knives easily and efficiently demonstrated by Creek Stewart. Check out the video on the next page.

You don’t need a $1,000 blade. Steels, off the shelf, are worlds better than they were even twenty years ago. We pretty much mastered sharpening metal 500 years ago.

Mark, god bless technology i can press my own blade and cut feet perfectly acording my palm and hans proportion
I do some drywalling work and have sanding sponges and sand paper to do the hard work, I keep some of them and use them to sharpen my blades.
I thought we was talking about knives , where is these knives you buy in the k’s ? I would like to see your collection of these is all.
If you can’t feel or see where you need to center you attention while sharpening a blade without a little guide mark ( what happens when your marker dies and you don’t have another? ) Then I doubt you will make it threw tomorrow. And that’s really cute how he tied down his stone….Find a rock and make it work!!

You realized this is a learning tool. People just use it to get the muscle memory of how to do it right. Also, why the hate?
Thru, Through, Threw, ….Maybe you should have saved that magic marker to learn English writing vocabulary. Negative karma will bite you back.
Tom Fallion No hate here…Just stating facts. If the world came to a situation like the need for this tomorrow…How ready would you be? And as soon as those cell towers go down….Where you going to look this up?
Richard Dawson Thank God we have genii such as yourself to show all us stupid people the way!!!!
Maybe the fat guys got tired of the show and wanted to do something else?
When the sheeple die off the meek shall inherit the Earth
Do this every time, This will tell you if your stone, rod, strop, whatever is at the same angle as your knife edge. With in one swipe of your knife on a stone or ceramic whatever, all the black should be removed from the edge evenly
