Knives - Show Me

I don't want to derail thread and I can't start one yet, but wanted recommendations on a lightweight field sharpener. My stone is pretty heavy and want to shave a few more ounces.

spyderco tri-angle sharpmaker for a sharpener, But honestly the best thing I've used is a good honing rod. If your knife is sharpened correctly you should be able to use a honing rod to bring back the edge several times before you need to sharpen and remake the cutting angle.

in the field I carry a small leather strop with compound on one side. I use Bark River Black and a Delta Honing leather - i got my stuff off DLT but there are lots of places you could get them. If you want just the leather an old belt works great too.
