2X Dual Grit Diamond Sharpening Stone + Leather Wallet Strop | By The Bear Essentials | Pocket Credit-Card Sized Field Sharpener for Camping, Bushcraft, Outdoors, Survival, EDC - Light Brown

What a neat little kit! This dual-grit diamond sharpener from The Bear Essentials is impressively compact, about the size of a credit card – perfect for throwing in a pack or carrying every day. The fact that it needs no oil or water is a huge plus for convenience, and having both a coarser and finer grit plus that clever leather wallet strop means it should really get the job done.This review represents my personal opinion and experience with this product.

Once again, The Bear Essentials Company has produced a must have product for anyone who has a need for sharpening knives, axes or just a need to smooth rough metal edges. This outstanding kit includes a #200/600 grit stone and a #400/1000 grit stone which covers pretty much anything that needs a good edge. A unique feature of this kit is that the leather case for the stones doubles as a great leather strop (on the reverse side) thus ensuring a very fine edge. You get all that is shown in the photo which is a well made system with impressive packaging that can accompany you on your outdoor adventures, all at a great price.Full Disclosure: I am not affiliated with The Bear Essentials Company in any way except as a customer and I have purchased this kit with my own money.....nothing was given to me for this review...it's just a great product!

The media could not be loaded. This kit was precisely what I was looking for. I do long, solo canoe camping trips. During which, I am usually fishing, and eating as much as I can catch. Eventually, my fillet knife starts to get a bit dull. I needed a good kit that I could pack with me, but not add bulk or weight. I knew I wanted credit card sized diamond plates, and leather for stropping. I don’t wear leather belts canoe camping, because they always get wet eventually. This is not an idiot proof sharpening set, it will require some understanding of manual sharpening technique, but it was perfect for keeping a keen edge on my fillet and pocket knife. I even use the 200 grit plate to keep my hatchet touched up.It was definitely more expensive than I thought it should be, and maybe that’s partially explained by the fancy metal tin, and burlap bag, and general non-utility, gift like, presentation. But I found no smaller or lighter option that I knew would keep me shaving hairs off my arm. The 4 grits, in a leather storage wallet, with a raw side for stropping, is perfect, and I expect to be using this for decades. I’ll probably take it traveling with me too, knives in AirB&Bs are always in need of some help.And it only weighs 2oz folks, that’s phenomenal!

Small and compact with high quality grits excellent product I'll use quite often

We are a bit of an odd duck. We do upholstery work, but we also repair RV lino floors. Constantly using box cutters and scalpels for precision cutting. Was routinely going through copious numbers of replacement blades. This product allows me to quickly put an edge on an otherwise dull blade, saving me countless replacements and even giving me blades that are actually sharper than the replacements.

Skip all the complicated contraptions and whirring gizmos. A simple hand sharpening system that can go anywhere you take your knife of hatchet. Excellent quality from The Bear Essentials. There are a 1000+1 uses for the tin it comes in as well.

I loved the quality and besides beingEnlightening you can take them campingAs a reference 👍

This pocket sharpener kit comes with the wallet containing two sharpeners with a total of four sharpening grits, the wallet itself can hold additional survival type cards, credit cards or even cash, this all comes packed in a small burlap bag, great for protecting the wallet if tossed in your backpack, or you can also store in the folding tin that is provided, on the wallet itself you can strop your knives, if you prefer you can apply polishing compound for a razor sharp edge. the sharpeners for me will be primarily used for knives, can also be used for fish hooks or arrow heads.
