Any muzzleloaders out there? Post a pic of your patch knife. Unfortunately I don’t have a muzzleloader yet justgathering some of the gear but don’t have a technical patch knife yet.

I always used a straight razor, back when I was a Buck Skinner/Mountain man.
A straight razor is a historically accurate "patch knife".
During the Fur Trade era, The "Mountain Man" used their straight razor as a patch knife far more often than they used it to actually shave. (Most did not shave even when they got all gussied up for the Rendezvous.)
My straight razor went AWOL back in '87. I haven't bothered to get another.
