Usage & Maintenance Tips

Sharpening: High-carbon steel is relatively easy to sharpen in the field using a basic file or whetstone.
Corrosion Prevention: Since the blade is carbon steel (not stainless), it is important to wipe it dry after use and apply a thin coat of oil (mineral oil or WD-40) to prevent rust.
Safety: Always ensure the handle is dry and your grip is firm before use. Store in a protective sheath when not in action.
