Very handy guide giving that I own a ton of the dual sized folding sharpeners. Better than breaking out the pro kit and fussing with inserting and removing the stones from th holder. this is is how the pro kit should have come. Put some cazy sharp edges ion event the cheapest kitchen knives and repaired with ease some of mt better ones. Warn your loved one if you do decide to use it as it can be very sharp when done right.

Everything fine as expected.

I like that it locks the blade into a specific angle (so hard to do freehand). You need to experiment a little to get the guide mounted correctly on the knife but it is very easy. Works great! I can almost shave with the pocketknife I sharpened. I only wish I had purchased the larger kit with more grit options and a storage case. You can use it dry or wet, but I recommend wet (tap water).

The first kit I received was not sealed in any way. I opened it up, and several of the sharpening stones were scraped up. Clearly the kit had been used, and I had ordered a new kit (not used). So I returned that kit and asked to have a new one shipped to me. The next kit arrived and the handle was sealed with a zip tie. I opened it up, and this kit seemed to indeed be brand new. Now that a had a new kit, I used it to sharpen a 2.5" long x 1/2" wide Swiss Army knife blade. I started with a setting of 7, but that won't work on a 1/2" blade (even though the instructions say it should). The stones will scrape the blade clamp part of the guide before contacting the blade. So I switched to a setting of 6, which should give an angle of 21 degrees on a 1/2" blade. This ended up being the perfect angle for that blade. I was able to achieve a sharp and even edge, of which I am very satisfied. It is sharper than when it was new, I am sure of that. I am not experienced with sharpening knives, so I found the guide very helpful in achieving the angle I wanted. Trying to get a 20 degree angle by free handing it would have been very difficult for me. Despite getting a used kit at first and one issue with the instructions, I'm giving this 5 stars. Mainly because I was so successful at sharpening.
