    My grandfather was an incredible man. To say he had a huge impact on my life is a massive understatement. Growing up, I constantly looked forward to spending a few weeks with him a couple times a year in Starkville Mississippi; the place I consider home. Over the years he taught me how to tie knots, fish, hunt, shoot, sharpen knives, and, most importantly, how developing a relationship with Christ will produce an immovable faith capable of conquering all my fears.

    Although this old Schrade may not be worth much, it happens to be very special to me since it was a gift from my grandfather. That being said, I felt it deserved a special edge. I hope you all enjoy the photos.

    Best.

    It’s great to have a knife like that! Thanks for sharing. And I think you did very good justice to it with the edge you put on in.
