I carry a tungsten carbide sharpener while hunting to refine the edges if needed , new blades will be sharpened before putting them on my arrows .
Just wondering why don't you just make sure their sharp the night before, or if you grab a dull one by chance just put it aside and grab the next. After all you only need one at a time to be sharp.
This is all asuming your not leavingfor a week ot two than of course I'd carry one.
