hey Associated survival now we're going to sharpen our knife with our EDC sharpening stone stay tuned ok so the EDC stone this hangs on a keyring I've got one on my keys here also have it on my EDC my wife has one on her keys and I would try to keep these hanging around pretty pretty simple so you can maintain your knife's edge beautifully on the go no matter what what's not even thinking about it you know everyone has a keys on them right now you have a sharpening stone being knife ok the stone now I just use it just like the dc4 I want it up on the bevel I just do right circles

I try to lay the stone flat on the bevel there's an awful lot of control of this little stone you can really feel the bevel perfectly

I just go down the blade I could feel one of our encounter imperfections in my bevel right here and feel a little bit of a rough spot where the feet the side of my stone is brushing up against a nick you know where the blade isn't has a little wave and where I got pushed to one side so the stone really allows you to perfect your bevel right there

it's working on that bevel getting it really nice

this is pretty much it you go down your whole stone so this is I do it you go down the whole length of your blade you want to be very cautious getting your bevel absolutely perfect I really love using the storm it just allows a huge sense of awareness your bevel I can feel a perfection right there and every imperfection you get rid of just increases one more spot that you blade bites into things perfectly ok so i went to the tip but all I do is just do the other side just clean the stone a little bit spit wipe down your pants what do you have doesn't really matter glue the other side very simple stuff and

the stone literally fits on your keys so I have a beautiful sharpening stone in my pocket all the time when I'm away from the house especially right so if I end up having to leave with the quickness because there's a problem you know whether it be a some sort of emergency situation you know weather-related I am on the East Coast you know or outbreak of war whatever the case is and I don't have time travel all the way back to my house to get my kit well you keep a knife on you at all times or in your vehicle at all times which in my opinion you should should always have a knife around definitely all right so being able to maintain what is possibly one of the most important things to have on you at time of crisis be able to maintain it without having to go get this you know it's on my keys all the time in my pocket and I can keep my knife maintained that just really gives me a lot of confidence gives me a lot of comfort knowing that I have a beautiful sharpening stone literally in my pocket at all times you know and it's not like something that I have to grab every morning to put in there to make sure I remember anything like that it's all my keys you know forget about it Sonia keys don't worry about it you know right next to the fellow out on your keys right so you have fire and your knife beautiful all the time so that is EDC sharpening stone okay so initially it's a bottle thanks for joining me today as we shop around nine for our EDC stone as you can see incredibly easy you don't even know it's on your keys or on your EDC and it keeps a phenomenal tool like your knife in tip-top shape you can't beat that take care have a great day you
