    For large blades, I have had good results with sinking the blade into a log or stump at a 45° angle, switch to the other side, then pull the stick across the edge while steadying the blade with my other hand. My favorite "nata" type knife is my T.M. Hunt M-18, incredibly diverse functionality in a single tool.

      Thanks for your input, after searching for the T.M. Hunt m-18, I might need a new knife! Cheers!

    Several months have passed. Do you still enjoy using the Nata? Or did you find a better tool?

      Thanks for watching. I grab a small Estwing hatchet more often than the Nata for comparable tasks. I still really like the idea of the Nata but the hatchet feels better overall to me.

      @@TheNinjaEveryDay Son of a bitch that's the same hatchet I've been using lol. Guess I'll forge a heavy-duty seax instead. Thanks for the update!

      hatchets are straight up better, they split much better than small natas. Large natas do okay but weigh more than a lot of effective hatchets. Natas are really good for delimbing green wood though, they are probably the best tool for that asides from a billhook, which is similar

    It's probably a san mai laminated blade. The soft iron or low carbon stainless back probably won't throw spark well.

    Cross section cutting / chopping might not be the Nata purpose, but thinning twigs is
