I have a Kershaw "Outlaw Bill" that was a Xmas gift from my Dad (he got tired of me borrowing his).
I like the knife, but unlike my Dad's "Outlaw Bill" mine will not hold an edge.
I have dressed 4 or 5 deer with my Dad's and it has never needed to touch a stone.
With my knife it started to get dull about deer #2. I also noticed chips missing from the sides of the blade.
When I dress a deer I only use my knife to cut soft tissue. I use a small saw to go thru any bone. I have other knoves that I use for the skinning/boning process.
I have a lansky sharpener. Do I need diamond hones to sharpen this blade since it is stainless? Should I just call Kershaw?
Rummer
