Learn to sharpen knives

I have gotten pretty good at sharpening knives, but I might be too good at it cause I keep cutting my fingers...

Seriously Razor Sharp... just putting my pocket knife in my pocket will cause my stones to shrink and move to the opposite side of my pocket

I have a Lansky Diamond Stone knife sharpening kit.
I used to sharpen our Marines’s Ka-Bar blades all the time in our Boatswain’s Locker of the USS PELELIU.

Wire edge on one side, remove it on the other.

I know that feeling. My locking folder began to open in my pocket with the blade to the inside of my thigh. It was a very tricky operation to get my hand in the pocket and close the blade as the tip had immediately caught itself in the fabric.

If I had been in the act of sitting down or stooping when it happened the pressure on the handle pressed against my belt area would have sunk the blade directly up into my groin. The tensioning screw has been tightened and I'll deal with needing more applied force to open the blade.
