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

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

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.

Works fantastic for a stellar price. An object to keep for a lifetime. Sharpened all of the blades in the house. Still working on my technique which will improve after multiple sharpens. Took some dull house kitchen blades and made them almost razor sharp (Due to my inexperience)Would purchase again

I like the rotating design. It makes sharpening a little easier. I also like this version is assembled in the USA. I am not sure the grit progression is good. I would like a more aggressive coarse grit, but it would probably wear easy.There is a slight fitment issue. It's a little loose so when I push forward the base moves.

Less than five minutes to get a razor edge on my chef's knife. Shave the hair off your arm sharp. Works just as advertised, and for a great price. Solid build. I anticipate this lasting for a long, long time.

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.

If you know how to use it, it does an excellent job.

Simple all in one tool that is well designed and affordable. It takes a pragmatic approach to getting a good edge on a blade. Three steps is generally good enough. I've been able to take pretty dull blades and bring them right back with this.No need to spend more.
