Smith's 50448 6” Diamond Tri-Hone Stone Sharpening System - Grey - Fine, Natural, & Coarse Stones - 3-Way Honing - Nonslip Rubber Feet - Restore Tools, Hunting, Kitchen, Fishing & Pocket Knives

This thing works great I am finally able to get my buck pocket knife razor sharp cut the hair on your arm sharp. I don't use the provided angle guide deal I found it easier to just hold the knife at an angle that is comfortable to me. When I first got it I started with the coarse stone did 20 strokes each side of the blade then went to the medium stone and did 20 strokes each side and finally the Arkansas stone 20 times each side followed by 20 more strokes divided equally between sides one stroke one side then another the next it was pretty sharp at this point just starting to be able to shave hair. I now touch up my blade once a week on the Arkansas stone only doing the 20 strokes each side and then the 20 divided and after the last sharpening my knife was scary sharp shaved my arm clean with very little effort. I have figured out that using a good amount of pressure while running the blade across the stone does help just like the directions say to do and also don't forget to always use a lubricant I hear it helps keep the stones from getting plugged up with the metal filings.

I have never had such sharp knives! I have sharpened every knife in the house (I'm a Boy Scout Scoutmaster, I have a LOT of knives). Oddly enough the best feature is the little plastic angle guide. It makes sure you have the proper angle on the blade every time. I brought back blades that I thought were lost causes. I sharpened all my kitchen knives. I sharpened scissors. I even took it to Boy Scout camp and sharpened the knives the scouts had just bought in the trading post so they could carve wood better. It only takes about 10 swipes on each side of the blade per surface to get them razor sharp. Well worth the investment.

Easy to use. Puts a good edge on any knife fast.

The sharpening plates are easy to use and do a good job sharpening various knives. The base could be a little heavier to be more stable. The little plastic angle guide is not that helpful. Overall, a good tool.

It simply works great. My girlfriend kept complaining about the kitchen knives being dull. I have a buddy that is an aspiring blacksmith, the took a class on professional blade sharpening. I asked his advice and he recommended this sharpener. Not expensive for what you get. I tossed the oil, just use water. Start with the course grit side, move to fine, then hone on the stone. Simple. Our knives stay sharp now.

I got this as a Christmas present for my father and he has used it so much. It's not too big, so it's easy to wrap as a gift and not difficult to store. He seems to really enjoy it and I felt confident that it was a good value and good quality.

Work fabulous, easy-to-use. Gives great Sharpening to all my streight knives. Well worth it.

Once you get the hang of holding the same angle during the stroke of the blade you're there. I take a sharpie to the blade where I want to sharpen the edge as a guide. Even put an edge on my tactical folding knives. Just not the serration of corse. Great stone system.

Excelente afilador de diamante por si necesitas hacer un nuevo perfil a la hoja de tu navaja, la calidad de Smith's de verdad que es buena por el precio que uno paga. El diamante no viene completo en las piedras, tiene un patron de hexágonos por lo que te dicen que los residuos de acero se quedarán ahí pero fuera de eso es buena.

Great product at a good price. I purchased on sale for $72. I sharpened a bunch of knives including a ZT 0566 with Elmax blade. The diamond sides had no problem and the arkansas smoothed out the edge very nice, finished on a strop with green compound, now the ZT slices through paper effortlessly. I have one small complaint, the base could be a bit heavier. It may move slightly if not on a perfectly flat surface. Repositioning the stone on my work bench took care of that although, i can live with that no problem. Overall 5 stars.

brilliant peace of kit duz a fantastic job puts a nice edge on whatever you need sharpening very happy with this product good value for money would highly recommend

I just received mine and was kinda hanging out to see how good it works, and I was not disappointed! Out of all my knives the one that probably has always been tricky to get an sharp edge on is the Cold Steel Ti-Lite VI Zytel, and it only took 10 minutes or so and it is razor sharp. My Ka-Bar Heavy Bowie Knife was next, now being carbon steel it was always easy to keep it sharp, it took only a few minutes and it is sharper than ever before! I showed the TRi-Hone to my brother and he quickly ask if I could do 2 of his kitchen knives, both were so blunt it would not cut anything, both took about 15 minutes each due to them being stainless steel knives, I used all 3 stones and both are razor sharp now. I am no expert but do have a good collection of knives, and I can't fault the Tri-Hone, I highly recommend it!

Todo de calidad y a buen precio
