things oddly wearing out

[Poochiehammer]

There are items that should wear out and there are some that shouldn't.  My hat and scarf needn't be repaired at the same rate as my boots.  Also, sleeping bags wear out too quickly.  The whetstone is ridiculously easy to wear out and hatchets shouldn't become useless after they are dull.  Perhaps have the whetstone a rarer item to find, or have it weigh a bit more.  Perhaps it's part a specific crafting table, such as the forge in Desolation Point?  I have owned knives, hatchets and whetstones for years and none have ever worn out, lest in the process of sharpening one hatchet.  I understand things wear out and need to at an accelerated rate for gameplay, but some of it is just too uneven.  Toques don't wear out in a month.

Dont bother, both durability and meat preservation issues have been discussed in depth repeatedly with no changes.
