Handy compact sharpening tool

I was pleasantly surprised by how well this sharpening device worked. My outdoor knife was pretty dull and after a few passes on this tool, it cut nicely. The tool contains everything that you need to get a reasonably sharp edge on even the dullest tools. It has both coarse and fine diamond surfaces, a ceramic polishing rod AND even a leather strop. There are smalI angle guides at the ends of the diamond surfaces. I was a little puzzled by how to use this tool at first and the package state...

Great starter and travel sharpener

I'm really liking this sharpener. It is compact but chock full of features. There is a coarse plate on one side, then fine on the other. The ceramic rod for honing has 3 positions - coarse, fine, and one for fish hooks. The small ceramic rod on the end is for honing serrated blades, and there is a leather strop on the bottom. I got this for smaller pocket and utility knives but it can be used for tool blades as well. The angle guides are super-helpful making this a great first sharpener. ...

Quality sharpener

When I first opened up the package and took the sharpener out , I was a little confused about the instructions on how to use it. Then I went to the website and watched a video on how to do it “right”. Each side has a sharpening plate, one course and the other fine. They are held by a magnet. A very strong magnet. I noticed a few warnings and cautions labels on being careful when using the sharpener. I followed the instructions while sharpening my pocket knife and it did an excellent job. My fing...

A nice utility sharpener that has unique features

I used it the first time and I had to figure out how to use it. I read the instructions, but actually using the product was the way I found out best how it used best to sharpen blades. The first thing is not to hold it in your palm. Holding it this way you may cut your hand since your hand would be in the way. You hold it at the end with black markings with your thumb and index finger. The second thing I noticed is it is better to place the other end on a solid surface as a countertop. The re...

Versatile sharpener in a compact size

The Work Sharp Guided Field Sharpener is a compact tool packed with quality features. At just under 7 inches long, it doesn't take up much space in a glove box, tool bag, or backpack, making it a versatile sharpener to take where ever it is needed. The sharpener has angle guides at the ends of the abrasive plates to ensure a proper angle. It has two diamond abrasive plates (fine and coarse), a ceramic honing rod (with fine, coarse, and fish hook sharpening surfaces), a leather strop for polishin...

Great little took, easy to use.

Great compact tool. The tool comes with the means to do a complete sharpening of your knife, scissors or even fish hooks. The instructions are included and are stored within the handle of the tool. It was easy to sharpen my knife following the instructions. Before sharpening, the knife wouldn't cut a single piece of paper. After sharpening with this took, it sliced the paper with ease. It's small enough to put in your gear bag. It's lightweight, but capable of putting a good edge on your ...

Well designed tool that can sharpen multiple items

Good quality sharpener with multiple pieces and connections to sharpen knives, scissors, arrowheads, axes, serrated, and more. The tool is conveniently packed together with removable coarse and fine surfaces that can be taken off to store the instructions or a small piece of flint or oil. The leather strop needs to be oiled. The guide angles on each side tell you the right angle to hold the blade to sharpen. It also fits nicely in the toolbox or glove compartment. The company says it is TSA frie...

This is your All In One of Sharpeners

I am so excited about this product from Work Sharp sharpeners. This is the guided field Sharpener and I don't think there is anything out there it won't sharpen. It is so handy and versatile

Best portable sharpener

This thing is incredible, it has everything you need to sharpen all your bladed tools. Makes sharpening knives and most other bladed tools a cinch. I love the different grit sharpening stones and the ceramic sharpening rod, which is adjustable to sharpen straight blades, curved blades, serrated blades, broad-heads and even fish hooks on the ceramic rod, which can be adjusted to any of 3 positions. The broad-heads can even be assembled by easily removing the fine diamond sharpening stone, which i...

Perfect for a sharp edge

This is a great multi-sharpener. Coarse and fine diamond sharpener at 20 degrees, coarse, fine, fish hook and serration ceramic 25 degree sharpener. The stropper is a new one to me but pretty cool. The instructions are behind the magnetic & removable diamond "stone" in the storage area. To be able to replace the sharpening surface and not the whole thinh is kind of nice. They say wrenches are in the storage area but i have not used them, sceptical of the plastic not rounding off. If you use the ...

Field sharpener

Guided field sharpener is perfect for the field, it has five sharpening surfaces and is designed for the perfect angle and it’s all self contained. It will sharpen knives, tools, broad-head arrows and more. Great product.

Awesome sharpening tool

This is the perfect size to put in the backpack for hunting or the door pocket of the truck when you need to clean an edge up on your knife. Really like the magnetic diamond plates with a molded sharpening angle on each end. I haven’t used the fish hook sharpening tool yet but it’s just another great feature.

Very versatile sharpener

This sharpener is very versatile and has three sharpening grades, one for rough honing, one for fine .honing and a strop for real fine honing, It is very convenient to carry in a tool box or for hunting.

Most versatile sharpener

This is the only sharpener you will need. The instructions included under the course diamond plate, cover instructions for the correct method of sharpening any blade, or even fish hooks. The plares are removable for blades that wont fit on the tool, like scissors. Ideal for shaping, sharpening, honing and stroping thr blades.

Great Tool, needs better instructions.

This is definitely the best sharpening tool I've ever had. It has so many functions, course diamond, fine diamond, round sharpener for serrated blades, and leather cleaning strap. My only complaint is the miniscule direction rolled up inside weren't very helpful, including the QR code app for cellphone. Going to the VouTube video was way better and the package directions should have told to do that.

Multi-faceted

This is an excellent sharpener. We are very pleased with the high quality of it and with how many functions it has. We have already been able to successfully sharpen knives, scissors, and even a rusty old fish hook became as sharp as a tack!! It has a mechanism to remove the blade off a broadhead in order to sharpen it for hunting. There are instructions located on the inside of this sharpener, and there is even a very helpful demo/video on YouTube that shows how to use the different functions o...

Very nice and simple sharpener!

I have had a ton of knife sharpeners over the years. Mostly the one with a fixed slit you guide through, this is way better than those. I really like the angle on each side to make sure your knife is properly angled on the slide. This makes it much easier once you get the hang of it. I had a few knives with chips in them so I started on the roughest side. Once most were gone I moved to the smooth grit. They are razor sharp now. The integrated stone for serrated edges is nice. I haven’t seen one...

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.
