The sharpening related items which arrived today - a combination 1000 / 6000 grit Japanese whetstone, a nagura (?) stone for smoothing the whetstone, and a second bushcraft knife made my Morakniv - a much cheaper version of the first one I got for comparison.19:49:07
The two knives - the very cheap Mora Companion, and the not so cheap Mora Garberg. The Companion was fairly sharp straight out of the box. The much more expensive Garberg was not for some reason.20:58:18
Soaking the whetstone in my ice bucket.
