How to clean a bushcraft knife


Recently I’ve been working with greenwood and this often leaves a sticky residue behind on my knife.  This is a common enough occurence that I deal with routinely.  So in this video I show how to clean a bushcraft knife from residue, although it could as easily be resin from a resinous conifer or indeed even rust.

We teach how to clean a bushcraft knife, as well as how to sharpen one on our 2 Day & 5 Day Bushcraft Courses, the IOL Bushcraft Competency Course and also our 2 Day & 5 Day Survival Courses.  You can see photos from these courses, as well as all of our other courses, on our Facebook page and here on our own website.
