I'm considering purchasing some Arkansas stones to maintain my SAKs (and INOX Opinels). Do Arkansas stones work well for these knives?I have a lot of experience freehand sharpening with Japanese bench-sized water whetstones but would prefer to maintain my pocket knives in the field instead and not need to be concerned with water. I'm thinking about one or more Arkansas stones and using honing oil.
Victorinox steel is soft (which I somewhat dislike) but it lends it's self to easy sharpening
