    Depends on how much youre willing to spend. I reccomend worksharp stuff, either their adjust fixed angle sharpener or their benchstones. For the price, they work really well. Could also use sandpaper on a flat piece of anything if it’s a softer steel (like 420hc). Having a decent sharpening system is a good investment in general, you’re gonna use knives throughout your life, might as well have something to get them performing well.

    Obviously on the cheaper end (little more expensive than sandpaper) you could get some cheaper whetstones (though theyll have a short life), an Arkansas stone ect. For this type of use, you probably want a toothy edge with a lot of bite, so figure 600-800 grit max, with a strop.

    I treat all my knives like this idc what steel it will look like this in a few days and I can also recommend the work sharp kit I bought the big one and just touch my knives up bout once a week it’s fools proof I skin a lot of wire with my knives so metal on metal a lot with tough coatings on it so they get beat up and yea I could and should prolly just use a cheap 15 dollar knife for this but I paid for high end steel and I wanna use it test it see what it can do

    Looks like it’s got life for a few more sharpenings. I have fixed angle sharpeners but I rarely use them. Doing it free hand really isn’t that hard, just takes practice. Most of them come with a piece thay creates the perfect angle for your hand to sit on.
