WE CAN PULL THROUGH

As the saying goes, the most dangerous knife is a dull one. Why? Because when the edge doesn’t do the cutting, most people try to muscle their way through a medium — which can lead to slippage and accidentally driving the blade into your hand or other body parts.

With a razor-sharp blade, you’ll be able to slice or stab through hide, meat, rope, or packages with ease.

That’s why we wanted to take a good look at the V-Sharp Classic II from Warthog Sharpeners. While it looks like some elaborate equipment stand for a kid’s chemistry class, this is actually a manual controlled-angle sharpening system.

It’s easy to use and helps return a mean cutting edge to almost any knife you throw at it — and quickly — but is the V-Sharp Classic II the right type of sharpener for a preparedness tool
