How to Sharpen a Higonokami Japanese Pocket Knife

A Higonokami pocket knife is a little different to a kitchen knife. It can be sharpened two different ways. Just to make things complicated.

There are two ways of sharpening a Higonokami Japanese folding pocket knife – the ‘Standard Grind’ and the ‘Scandi Grind’.
