Welcome To Survival-Russia. One of the very best Outdoors and Survival related communities on RU-vid, and yes, It's a pretty good Channel too.
My name is Lars. I'm From Denmark but I live in Rural Russia now. I live at a Homestead in wild nature surrounded by a huge forest.
On The Survival-Russia channel we do all things related to the Outdoors Lifestyle. I share my thoughts and experiences on Survival Techniques for the woodlands of the Northern Hemisphere. the Reality of Survival. I share Techniques and ways of the Siberian Tribesmen and the Russian Longhunters of the older days. Things not shown outside of Russia very much.
On this Channel we also do Off-Road driving, Vehicle builds, Metal Detecting, all things Outdoors basically. Enjoy!

I wonder how many people are shaking their heads because their way is the “right” way? My way is definitely different than yours, but I’ve seen how sharp your blades are… your grandfather’s way is very effective! Thank you

@SurvivalRussia 2 года назад

Thank you very much brother.

Finally! Someone else that uses the thumbnail test!

@leebarnes655 2 года назад

Only safe way to judge the sharpness and usefulness of an edge or a fishing hook as well. If you'll keep your hooks sharp, you'll catch more of the bigger fish and that's just how it works. I get done sharpening and both thumbnails are a disaster area.

Lars,from what I read about the covid 19, the inflammation of your lungs, may linger in your lungs, for up to a year.Every one is different and unique, so doctors recommend steroids/ anti-inflammatory type of drugs, to lessen the effect of inflammation to your , body..Just a thought! Stay healthy, drinks warm fluids, rest and take it easy! Baby steps.....I will keep you in my prayers!😀👍

@mikafoxx2717 2 года назад

Simple and effective. It's how I ended up sharpening things out of reflex. Wetstone in one hand, blade in the other, moving one or both at a time.

@Kuemmel234 2 года назад

For me as an urban dweller who sharpens pocket and kitchen knives, I've come to love these triangle sharpeners (spyderco does the original, there's a cheap one by lanksy). It's not much slower than using a rod, actually. Love how a maintained knife is pretty much razor sharp in a few seconds with these. I only use a wet stone, when I have to repair damage these days. Get well soon! Take all the time you need!

I am a knife guy, and spend time sharpening and polishing the edge. I find it relaxing... however there are certain knives I do that with. My working knives and axes get a very similar sharpening to what you do. It doesn't matter how you do it as long as you get the result you're looking for.

Lars, can you sharpen an axe with a tank???? Lol. Maybe. Just kidding. We love your content. Over watching you for years, your content helped me most when the power went out, everything froze, and we kept warm and helped my neighbors. If I didn't have your information, we would have been bad off. It has been things that aren't shown in some survival books that mattered the most from your experiences. Thank you. We kept warm, and helped others. But we were prepared. GOD bless you and your family.!!!! 😁

@wazza33racer 2 года назад

When I was planing hard wood on a house frame, I sharpened the blade with a belt sander ;)

@miker5502 2 года назад

Thanks for this Lars. I also learned from my Grandfather who was a machinist in a Steel Mill. I believe most people over think the whole knife-axe-tool sharpening thing. As you mentioned it can be a hobby to try to get the most crazy razor sharp polished edge, but that type of edge is not required for everyday use. Lonnie on Far North Bushcraft has also mentioned people tend to take their knives to a stone when all it needs is a rub or two on a strop or steel. The knife will last a lot longer. Cheers Mike.

@peterlaker2234 2 года назад

Thank you lars great video. I hope your recovery is full and speedy 👍

@jamesmiddleton6464 2 года назад

I appreciate that you point out "woodsman " sharp. Too many people think that if you can't shave with it a blade is dull. Sure that's awesome but not always practical in the field. You have a much more practical standard that I appreciate.

@getsmart3701 2 года назад

That is a good philosophy for sharpness Lars, I'm using a very similar one myself but...I got to be able to sharpen my knives/axes quickly or I find that I won't do it when I should and the knife can quickly slide into the "non-safe" sharp category. I use a drill with a sanding plate with a combination of fine sanding discs and a homemade rough stroping wheel. I find it works well and it's very fast. I hand strop or, use a ceramic stone to finish. All my knives become convexed very quickly with this method.
