This sharpener is small, compact and very handy. I've used a lot of sharpeners and this is the one I carry in my pack, my kitchen knife drawer and my EDC. That's why I bought three at once. It puts a fast, sharp edge on even hard to sharpen stainless steel. I have a small Gerber Clutch I use daily and the edge is the first thing to go because I use it to pry things open as well as cut stuff. The Eze-Lap makes the edge like factory new in seconds. All for less space than a ball point pen takes up. If you need sharp things, get one. Or three.

I have an old model of this same sharpener that I wanted to replace. The new one looks very much like the old one but when I went to use it it was more like using a very course file on my knife instead of a diamond sharpener. The reason I have kept the one I have for many years is that it always gave me the finish to my sharpening efforts and a great touch-up. There is no way I would ever use this on any of my good knives except maybe to begin the sharpening process and I have better stones for that. Save your money, there are much better touch-up sharpeners on the market.

....is to keep your hook sharp. This little tool will do it easily and quickly, The groove makes it easy to hone the hook to a needle-sharp point in just a couple strokes. I have used these for over 30 years. Unlike a hook file, which will get rusty from the water on the hook, this abrasive actually benefits from the wet-hone effect. The rest of the surface makes it easy to sharpen your pocket knife or other edges as well.

I purchased this item to touch up musky hooks. The item does a nice job. I am concerned about the longevity of the item, but that is only because I am using it for very large hooks. I plan on purchasing another to use for bass and pike lures. The file does what it is supposed to. Sharper hooks equals more fish.

This hook sharpener will very quickly turn fish hooks so sharp the fish will be hooked just by looking at it. It is easy to use and does a great job quickly.

I love this product! Small size, easily fits in a tackle box. With the pocket clip, carry like a pen as the sharpening stone slips inside it's case when not In use. The small hook groove is just right to sharpen all small hooks. Great value!

I have used these things for many years. Some how in the moves across the country I lost the one I got 16 years ago. Great value and a vey important part of a serious fishermans' tools!. Makes the value of hooks more desirable because even brand new hooks are not always sharp enough to do the job.

compact and works well. This is the third one I have had in the past 15 years. Great to touch up my pruning tools and knives. Carry it in my lunch bag or pocket.

Have had 2 for about 20 years. These are the BEST hook sharpeners made. So simple, so easy. The built in groove for hooks is the secret.
