At the Aug. 16 program, MDC Community Education Assistant Brandy Morris will provide tips on how to sharpen a hunting knife. A blunt knife will cut through meat or hide in a less efficient manner. Thus, hunters in the field using a dull knife will spend more time field-dressing a deer or performing other post-harvest tasks. Considering that there is less daylight to complete these types of tasks in fall and winter, having a sharp knife that will provide quick, clean cuts is imperative to completing the final duties involved with a successful hunt.
Though this program is free, registration is required to participate. Use the link above. Registrants for the virtual attendance option must provide an e-mail, so a program link can be sent to them. This program will include a chat-based question-and-answer period where participants can interact with the presenters.
