Delacour Axe/Hatchet Sharpening Puck Whetstone Knife Sharpening Stone, Dual Grit Multi-Purpose Sharpener Stone

I never used a round puck type sharpener. After I soak it I wipe off excess water and use leather gloves to hold it until I get more practice. It brought new life to my >50 year old machete. It put an edge on a new hatchet which was extremely dull. Lesson was don’t buy a hatchet you have not held and inspected unless you are willing to modify and sharpen it. But if you do then consider this good sharpening pick. You don’t need to use oil with it. It fits in a pocket. It works well.

Works well.

This stone has 2 sides with different grit to bring your tool to a fine edge. It can be used on more that just an ax. I use mine on my lathe tools to a fine edge.

It is what it says it is. For a larger tool, this is about the limit of how fine that is actually useful. Does the job.

I'm sick of those course knife and tool sharpeners. Once your knife has a good edge why would you use a 300 grit stone to sharpen it, or even 800 grit for that matter. This stone allows me to start with 1000 to get it sharpen and 6000 grit to make it perfect. I don't know if this would be good for axes and hackets, but for knives this is a nice, handy, and inexpensive option.

Sharpens the tools great

Seems to work great so far

Gives a sharper edge but does not polish it like I thought it would
