Micro Sharpener & Knife Tool

I have the micro on my coffee table. When I hear my wife say done with the knife in the kitchen. She gives me the knives and I hold the knife with my support hand and run the diamond on the micro down the edge. I can feel the vibrations where the edge is damaged. I do both sides until smooth. Then I turn to the ceramic to polish. I'll strop the thin blades. Works great.

This is a handy and convenient sharpener. I carry it in my pocket every day, and when I find myself with some idle time, I may reach for it and sharpen my knife to pass the time.

The diamond and ceramic sections are a bit small, but still useful. The idea of sharpener and the most commonly used Torx bits is rather brilliant. If I had control over product development, I’d have a version of the WS field sharpener with a compartment for bits and a cutout to use the body of the sharpener as a handle.

This is handy as all get out. The diamond side will work with esoteric steels and the ceramic works great with more mundane steels. The bits seem okay. I swap them out for some Wihi bits just to be on the safe side. This is all you need in the field if you are comfortable with freehand sharpening.
