[QUOTE="Canhunter35, post: 2417612, member: 101677"] [I]Great post. [/I]I’ve also found the same, I also thought I’d add, knives with less or no chromium sharpen much easier, it’s hard to beat a 1095 steel blade for working, but they rust so easy. I’ve also found steel with vanadium sharpen like razors, but on the sharpening, that’s the single biggest reason why some blades remain sharp and others go dull, a true 11degree edge that’s polished with no furl will last as long time. I’ll castrate calves all spring, do a thousand or more without sharpening my castrating knife, lots of guys will be standing in the corral, tuning on their knife mid brandings, but they’re running too shallow of an edge and it just won’t last. For field dressing I use a case trapper, two blades, the round one opens a hide so easy, better than a gut hook ime [/QUOTE]
