Works better than I was hoping for. Used it to sharpen up a dozen axe edges in no time. Planning on using this stone from now on as my primary maintenance sharpening tool.

I had to try this stone out as soon as I opened it. I cleaned up the edge on my axe and a garden shovel. Very satisfied.

Beautiful workmanship and a perfect fit to replace a really well used handle

A great stone. I like how this is purpose built for moving the stone with the axe or other blade held still. The round shape and finger groove make it convenient and safe. I've only used it once but should perform great for a long time. With a sharp file, this stone, and a strop you're good to go. Thanks!

I have files, large flat stones, and a belt sander for sharpening axes, hatchets, machetes, hoes, and other edged tools, but they are bulky by nature. This little stone is easy to tote and use. Gets a good edge quickly.
