Why are people supposed to use wood to baton a knife?
If wood is softer wouldn't it be less efficient too?
Why not use a rock though? If it would work faster
Using metal to strike the knife would damage it. Plus you'd have to carry a big chunk of steel every time you went hiking.
The wood it already there, and it is hard enough to do a good job, but soft enough not to damage the knife.
