Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Also, some comment about needing the base / sold separately. But for what it is and all it is an excellent addition to a hunting pack or bug out bag.

The sharpener works fairly fast once set up. It's now sharper than my outdoor edge razor lite edc. I like that you can select the sharpening angle that's right for your blade.

This works for any straight edge knife, just not serated ones.



Cons

These stones are way overprices. The medium stone has a crease midway on the stone where the oil/plastic solvent actually ate the stone! The hones are tiny. It's very awkward to hold while honing.

The decline in quality of this brand/product is actually the worst i've ever seen in my lifetime. Rather than investing your money in this garbage, invest in yourself and get a book that teaches you how to do the job correctly.

It has to be seated properly to the blade to sharpen correctly. The backwards nature of the sharpening system itself is dangerous for new to sharpening users, imho. They are very narrow so it is super easy to get an inconsistent cut across the blade.

Only a p. Box the unit comes in is really cheaply made and corners were cut in manufacturing. I'm pretty sure this is either a knock off set or their quality went way the * down. Months later and the whole set is messed up.

Knife clamp is cheap and * and covered in casting burrs. Thumb screw is too big and interferes with the function of the tool at the lowest angle on one side. Clamp doesn't properly tighten to keep your blade secure.

    You can buy a dollar tree knife and put a wicked sharp edge on it

    To get a truly sharp edge get a quality leather strop and some green compound

    Lansky makes strop for this kit

    If you have a vice in your garage workbench then you can just clamp it there to operate no need for the base imo

    I don’t use for much more than a 46” pocket knife anything over that and i could see that being an issue
