Title: *** MUST HAVE *** SOLD OUT!!! its a Take Down!!!
Post by: Terry Green on July 10, 2023, 04:29:39 PM
OK guys, I just have to pass this along....

I'm not big on *Must Have* BS in marketing, but we all must have a bow, arrows, knife,... yada yada.

Here is a *Really Nice To Have* item that has made it back onto the scene.  I have bought about a dozen of these and have given them out as gifts for lots of occasions and just for the heck of it a few times.

They went AWOL for a few years and now they are back...

So I'm passing this along as some of you might really like to own one or more of these.

These are also AWSOME for sharpening 3 Blades with ease.  They are the biggest no brainer 3 blade sharpener you can buy.

Anyone that has been around me at the skinning shed knows I use this item a lot for touch up while butchering.

TAKES DOWN!!!

The best thing about these is that the diamond steel breaks down into the handle for packing ease!!!

I emailed them that I was going to post about this item here and I got a reply back that they have sold 9 at least.

You know, for me, this is one of those items that I hate to leave out of my pack or miss place.  It's very versatile.  My knives, Wide 2 blades, 3 Blades and, even though tricky, my 4 Blade Zsss.

Must’ve sold them out. Shows out of stock now. I see BUCK has one made for them. Not sure if it’s same quality and grits or not.

Yes, same tool more money.... but STILL worth it!!!!!

I just sent them an email to see if they are out of stock, and when they will have them back in stock.

I'll report back when I hear....

Yes!!!!!!! That's where I got the 1st half dozen or so.... if you need to give a hunting friend a gift... these are perfect.  That's what I did back in the day, and have sent one to SC and TX as of late.  :campfire:

Got mine yesterday and tried it out sharpening a razorcap. Works great and will be taking it on my Antelope hunt the first week of September. A lot easier and lighter than packing my DMT bench stone.

straight from the source:https://www.buckknives.com/buck-gear/sharpeners/

The small diameter steel with grooves are great for sharpening fish hooks.

If the blade is dull, try an Ekco.  Works for knives, two and three blade broadheads.

The 2 I ordered where in the mail when I got home last night. I suspect there will be smooth arms and possibly a smooth leg or 2 in my near future.
