Well designed!

This is a well designed field sharpener, with the ability to sharpen many different things from knives to broad head arrows even fish hooks. Everything is there, a coarse and fine diamond surface, ceramic rod for touch up and a smaller rod for serrated edges. Instructions can be found in a compartment under the sharpening surface and online videos are also available. This sharpener should serve me well for years to come. The sharpening surfaces can also be replaced.

Not a kitchen tool ???

Tried my kitchen knives first and had problems. After repeated attempts I couldn’t get a good edge on my kitchen knives. Made three attempts with one knife. Results weren’t there. I eventually came to the conclusion that hollow-ground knives were too much of a challenge for me with this tool. They story was just the opposite with my pocket knife. Both blades sharpened correctly and easily. I also was able to easily touch up my utility knives and it worked well on an axe. I do recommend t...

Great little knife sharpener

This little sharpener worked pretty well. It’s compact and easy to use. The instructions are rolled inside the sharpener. The sharpening plates magnetize on and off which is where you will find the instructions. As with all sharpeners go slow and steady.

A must have when there's no power!

I decided on picking this field sharpener because the all in one idea. I really wanted to discard all my other sharpeners when traveling. This will do exactly that. I tested it by sharpened & polished 2 straight edges long and short, a serrated edge and a dull box knife blade. I was very impressed with how well it sharpened all the edges. Then I had it with me when delivering something that was roped down on my flatbed trailer. The customer tried cutting the rope but his knife was dulling. It wa...

Handy compact easily accessible. All in one tool.

Very good sharpener, I used it to sharpen several knives I had that were very dull. Works great for getting back to a sharp angle from an extremely dull blade. The low grain is perfect for very dull knives, the high grain is good for fine tuning, the ceramic is good for finishing the edge, and the leather is perfect to take the burr off. Overall this is a very good sharpener that provides many uses in one easy to carry tool.

Great all-around field sharpener

The Work Sharp Guided Field Sharpener is very well-made and has an impressive number of sharpening options, especially considering its pocketable size. 320 and 600 grit diamond sharpening plates bring your edge back from oblivion. Next, the course and fine ceramic rods move it to near-perfection. To top it off, use the leather strop to give your knife the ultimate in ultra-fine sharpness. The separate ceramic rod for sharpening serrated edges, the fish hook sharpener, the broadhead wrenches ...

As Sharp As Ever

I found this sharpener to be easy to use, requires little effort, convenient to store and effective. The knife I have (pictured) had become so dull using it was almost as bad as using a butter knife. The knife is as sharp as I ever remembering it being after sharpening the knife with this sharpener. The only thing, and it's minor, I didn't like about the sharpener is that it is not comfortable to hold using the thumb holder while sharpening a big knife. However, that was easily rectified by ...

Handy tool does the job like a professional

The tool is small and compact and has 4 levels: course diamond, fine diamond, ceramic and leather strop. I am a true novice when it comes to sharpening knives, yet I found this tool very easy to use with outstanding results. I started testing it with an old, antique Leatherman knife which felt very sharp to me, but it failed the paper cut test by simply tearing the paper. A closeup view revealed a chipped, uneven edge. After using the course side, the chips were gone and I achieved a smooth edge...

Nice Little Sharpener

Being a tradesman I’m constantly using knives. Keeping them sharp is essential. This sharpener is a great help in that regard. I sharpened three different blades. All different types. The smaller the blade, the easier it was to work it on the sharpener. It did put a new edge on all three. I’m sure with a little practice one can work the larger ones more easily. I like the size. Can fit in a tool bag, tackle box or backpack. The steel can be replaced if needed also. The broadhead holders and fis...

All replacing knife sharpener

This is a well overengineered knife sharpener. In a good sense. It practically replaced all my sharpening stones as it’s capable of doing any kind of sharpening work. And it’s all included in a small and handy package. At the very first it got me confused with all those features and I highly recommend watching video help or finding instruction sheet – it’s cleverly hidden in storage spot under diamond plate. Once I figured it’s features it became my go to tool. It can sharpen everything from axe...

Portable Sharpener

I am always looking for a better way to sharpen knives. What I really like about this one is the video from the QR code on the package. I don't really see commercials anymore because of streaming, so this really showed me how useful this one could be. Great to keep in a backpack when hiking or camping. I tried it on a kitchen knife first and it made cutting things like tomatoes effortless.

Guided field sharpener.

This is the Work Sharp sharpener. Its called the work sharp guide field sharpener WSGFS. Its a small portable knife and tool sharpener with built in angle guides. It has two grades of diamond abrasives, coarse and fine. There is also a ceramic abrasive that rotates to expose 3 different surfaces. In addition there is a smaller ceramic surface to sharpen serrated blades. Also a leather strop is attached to the tool and a hole to attach a carabiner for carrying. It measures 6 1/2" long by 1" wid...

Extremely well designed

I'm really in love with this knife sharpener. It is compact, works well at home, and is easily transportable. It works on a variety of products. For me, I will use it almost exclusively with my knives and scissors. But, if you're an outdoor person, it is well worth it to keep one of these handy. You sharpen knives pretty much the same way that you use a steel. However, it takes fewer strokes and less effort to obtain a smooth sharp edge. If you look at the pictures I've included, you can ...

They thought of everything.

I have a pretty good setup for keeping my blades sharp, but some of it I wouldn't or couldn't take out into the field. This sharpener does it all, and it fits into a pocket. There are a lot of "multi-purpose" tools out there, but this one may be the best one I've seen so far. It even contains a fishhook sharpener and a wrench to remove broadheads. It does everything from rough shaping right down to the final razor edge. It contains two grits of diamond sharpener, a ceramic honer, and a small...

Compact knife sharpener

I like this knife sharpener. Compact, lightweight, and easy to use. You can sharpen and hone your knifes on the go / wherever you are. It also can sharpen the serrated edges on your pocket knife. Recommend

A go to sharpener

This is now my favorite go to sharpener. Yes it is s simple to use and it puts a razor sharp edge on my knives. I also use it to sharpen my fishing hooks and it puts a great edge back on my razor knife. Perfect 20 degree edge.

Fantastic Knife Sharpener!

This is a great knife sharpener!  I "had" a number of knives that were dull and dangerous.I got this sharpener and now they are like new! This sharpener has a coarse 220 grit diamond side to recondition the blade and then a finer side to get a nice edge on the blade.  The sharpener has a 20 degree angle guide to make sure you are sharpening at the correct angle. There is a ceramic rod to put a hone on the blade and even a leather strop to give it a final polish.You can sharpen serrated knives, f...

A well thought out sharpening tool

The Guided Field Sharpener is a well thought out device. Has both a course and a fine diamond “stone” each of which can be removed for use outside of the tool, or, if the need comes up, to be replaced. Same goes for the ceramic bar, which by the way also has a fine and course side plus a slot for fish hooks. The ceramic bar is rotated, buy using the end knob marked C F and J. The letter jay is for fish hooks. I took a well used knife and in after a bit, had the edge in like new, if not better,...

Surprisingly Good

I took this outside to the back deck and sat down with half a dozen of my pocket knives. I did watch the YouTube video on the link provided on the package. It was very helpful. Following the fairly simple instructions, I was able to put a very sharp edge on all of my knives. Sharp enough that I could shave the hair off my wrist. The pros. All of the different surfaces are on one device. It is fairly ergonomic and doesn’t require a bench or table. It actually sharpens very well. The con. Thi...
