What did you do to/with your Becker today?

Glad to hear it has been working hard for you.

A tip, if I may?
Take two river stones and a few drops of water and rub the stones together to create a slurry and see if that helps. The slurry will be made up of very fine silicates and this will do the cutting, not a small contact area on the stone face.
You can even use a flattened surface of a piece of wood to some affect if the stone doesn't work as well.

I hear ya.
I've got multiple sharpening setups; I was just using the river stone a'la "Murray Carter" (or Rambo, if you prefer), and the blade didn't even really need it.
I'm thinking a BK9 may be arriving for a Christmas present to myself...

ha another lunch in the woods. Bk9 assisted with feathersticks and batoning for cooking lunch. She looks a bit different now though. New scales, stipped, and patina'd

Very nice man. I've been trying to find time to get out and hunt more. Love seeing your pics. Motivates me to find the time I don't have!!

Hey thanks. Stayed in today, though. It's in the 30s with spitting rain/ice/deviltry and 30ish mph winds *and* it's the early youth gun weekend here. This is a superb day to stay home and watch football. :D
 
Saved Thanksgiving...or at least lowered my wife's stress by using the BK5 to make the turkey torsos fit in the crockpots.
 
I completed a trade with a fellow BF member, a BK5 for a Rock Creek Nyala. Seeing as I had 2 extras, and the Rock Creek being hard to find, I'm quite satisfied. Hopefully we'll also have a new BK fan too.
 
I used my BK-2 to open the packaging that my new BK-16 arrived in. I can't wait to get her cleaned up and modded.

Woods bumming day today…

Scouted out some areas to set up a quick day camp, before temps start to drop next week.

















Trying out some homemade dehydrated chili…





 
Beautiful pics, looks like some quality time Aikiguy. :thumbup:

Thank you for posting that.
 
Nice pics!
Do you wear a GoPro when camping, or are you three-handed (I noticed both hands in the firesteel & tinder picture)? :-)

Awesome man!! I actually found the time to head out with my sons and get a squirrel. All three of us enjoy eating them. This time I had them help me skin and gut it outside. They brought the heart and liver in to "show" mom. I forget how funny 5yr olds are at times.

Unfortunately I did not get any pictures of the process. But I did use my BK11
