Would like to see some sharpening steel rods to touch up knives in the field, there are 2.5 inch available and 5 inch available for pocket knives and small fixed blade, sharpening stones and devices aren’t always the best due to removing steel from the blade when all you have to do is straighten the edge and perhaps stropping it…..
Super solid suggestions !! I’ve been really looking at sharpening stuff lately. I have a lot of different systems. However I strop a lot. I have a nice long “Barber style” one in the kitchen along with a steel. It’s surprising how much that really helps, even the ceramic pull through’s don’t really remove material and are more of a “Honing” type item. - once those things really aren’t putting the edge where I want it is when I start going into other systems
you seem to know a lot about Battlbox. ithink i heard you say that they used the knife sharpener 100 boxes ago. do they, over time, go back and use a product from an old box and put it in a new one? it makes sense that they would.
Yes I’ve subscribed since about mission 18 and we have the Battlbox Spoiler page and more Facebook group that I manage.- Yes they have repeated some items or had similar items from time to time. It doesn’t happen often. Often a newer subscriber will post an item and ask “has this ever been in a box ?” And the item usually has lol. I would say we get about 2 repeat items a year, they are usually expendable items. Fire starters, first Aid, camp meals, drink mixes things of that sort. The biggest item I ever saw repeated was a Zippo axe (it had been sent about mission 17), it’s one of the items I really wanted but never got and now I have it so it’s awesome!

How many Grim cards do you have now?
Oh I have no idea lol! If I had to guess I’d say over 60 - but under 100
