That's a good point. I guess what I meant was many pocket knives tend to have harder to sharpen steels - m390, 20cv, s90v, etc. Kitchen knives don't generally need the toughness or whatever you want to call it, so should usually be easier to sharpen.

I must say that I use my spydiechef (lc200n) in the kitchen - I know it's impractical - and it is fantastic.

A lansky sharpening kit will run you like 50 bucks and it's easy to use. There are other options like KME, spyderco, and more. It's all really easy and AFAIK kitchen knife steel is much easier to work with than tool steel knives.

Edit - lanky to lansky

Thanks for the detailed response! (☞゚ヮ゚)☞

Great use of sidle too! What you said all makes sense. I'm well removed from getting learnt on grammar and sentence structure so I'm gonna defer to you.

You are absolutely right that adopters can be spotted by their (mis)use of the word. On another note, I love when people tell me they hate the word but still know exactly what I'm talking about when I use it. It is so culturally pervasive even objectors acknowledge it.

If you can pull the grass back and see a little dug-out den, its a rabbit. If it's a true hole, it could be a vole, mole, or any number of burrowing varmint. I don't have anything for scale but it does not look like a groundhog.

I've run over more baby rabbits with my lawnmower than I'd prefer but it's hard to tell if it's one of their dens.
