SHTF Knife Sharpening

In an apocalyptic situation or you are just out in the woods without a sharpening stone, there are many ways to sharpen your knife or axe without one. In this Instructable I will show you a few of them.

If you are near a car and you can get the window down, just run your knife along the unpolished and rounded part of the glass on the top of the window. Do 3 or 4 passes and flip your knife, repeat until sharp.

If you flip your coffee cup over there is an un-coated rounded edge that will work the same way as the window works.

A flat, rounded, and smooth river rock will work almost as well as a real sharpening stone. Just use it like you would use a stone, because it is one...

Once you have a nice sharp edge you will need to strop your knife.

The nylon straps on your pack work well,

OR

A leather belt/ sheath will work too.

Just hold the strap tight and run the knife along it backwards.

Thanks for viewing my instructable, and if you have any other ways to sharpen in a SHTF situation, feel free to tell me in the comments.
