Show your Feathersticks

Nope, those were done "tip down" with my right hand. A lefty doing "tip up" technique would get very similar results though.

What knife is that you used and what mods did you make. Looks like a Rat

That knife is a saber ground CG Dumpster Mutt from scrapyard knives. The previous owner told me he convexed the edge and removed the coating to the saber flat on a grinder. He said he was still learning how to sharpen with a belt grinder, but that he thought it was done well.
When I got the knife I snapped those pictures to let him know he did do a good job on the edge.


Some practice I got in today on a short hike:

This thread needed a good bump. Carving feathersticks also makes one of the best tests for edge geometry/sharpness of a knife in my opinion.

I think it's time to bring this thread back from the dead...
