Ever since I sold mine, I wanted to find another. Got lucky and found one for sale on the forum. The knife has the most comfortable handles I have ever held. It looks brand new but its kinda dull. What would be the best way to sharpen it? Does it have the convex grind? It has boycote wood just like the one I had. Talk about a good Christmas present!

If its from BRKT I'd expect a convex. Sandpaper over a leather strop to get your edge back, strop til you like it.

It doesn't matter if it's flat or convexed you can still sharpen it on a stone, check out ML knives video's on Youtube, he sure knows a thing or two about getting knives scary sharp.

Congrats on a sweet knife. It's definitely a convex edge (unless a previous owner re-shaped it for some silly reason).

Here is a ton of great info on maintaining convex edges:
