Sharpening Stones, Whetstones and Axe Stones

[Draco122 412]

Something I feel REALLY needs to be in Standalone is to be able to find Sharpening stones for your Axes and Knives. Here's how I imagine them to work:

 

First up, is the Knife Sharpening Kit - This small kit is a 1 slot item and works in a similar way to a Sewing kit. It will require multiple uses in order to repair a knife or Axe back to a "worn" status and will become ruined once it's fully used. An Axe will require more uses, due to the small nature of the sharpening stones which are designed primarily for knives.

 

 

Second is the Whetstone -  Like the Knife Sharpening Kit only it uses a percentage value instead of a durability value, it takes up the same space as a Weapon cleaning kit, a 1x2 slot but allows for almost three times the durability of the knife sharpening kit. Each use on a Knife type item (Kitchen Knife, Hunting Knife, Combat Knife) takes roughly about 10% off, an Axe, Machete or Sword on the other hand, takes 20% off at a time, it will disappear from the users inventory once the item is fully used up.

 

Third and finally is the Axe Grinding Stone - This hockey puck shaped stone is primarily designed for uses with Axe's and long blades (such as Machetes, Shovels and even Swords), It can NOT be be used with smaller blades like the Kitchen Knife, Combat Knife and Hunting Knife, a dedicated Knife Sharpening Kit or Whetstone is required for that. These Axe Stones are a 1 slot item but work in a percentage value, Axe's, Shovels, Swords and Machetes take up only 10% of it's percent value at a time.

 

Overall these items can be found in Industrial areas as a well general residential areas.

Cool idea but I don't think the hunting knife is in .52 stable was in exp.

Your right. These needs to be in the game. No but seriously. Cool idea. A whetstone, a machete, chair and a animation where you sit down and sharpen your object in a badass kinda way.

Would just one sharpening kit not do it, this is senseless convolution.

All for a sharpening kit, just not sharpening kits.

Well I would say at least the Knife Sharpening Kit and the Axe Stone, because it's often very difficult to sharpen an axe on one of those small knife sharpening kits, an axe stone allows for a better cutting edge than what you would get with those smaller stones.

It is still really stupid. Just have one sharpening kit. It might be realistic but it does not really add a whole "Woah this is super fun" aspect to the game, it is not practical.
