takes a little work November 24, 2009 S. Schachter (Carmel Valley, CA) You use a back and forth motion to sharpen the hatchet or ax, not a pull through.
I used a very dull hatchet that's used to split kindling wood, mainly 2x4 pieces.
It takes a lot, I mean, a lot of back and forth pulls but, you know what, my little hatchet started to develop an edge and was getting sharp.
I'll get back to it when I need to split more kindling and run the hatchet through a couple of dozen more times.
The more you run your az et al through the sharpener, the more it works for you. No need to worry about shaving off too much metal from a hatchet.
I would not use this sharpened for my kitchen knives, though. But I would use it for a cheap camping or outdoor knife that would get sharp with a crude edge.
As advertised... BUT.... November 3, 2009 Skip W. (Republic of Texas) I don't care for this product. It easily slides around on most smooth surfaces; not good when working with sharp objects. Cumbersome. Cuts very roughly. Difficult to use with bulky or awkward tools like axes and hatchets. Would probably work ok for dressing up kitchen knives if the stones were finer. While it works as designed, to a degree, there are better products out there.

KNIVE SHARPENER September 16, 2009 Mike J. Reese WE LOVE THIS KNIVE SHARPENER. IT WORKS GREAT ON ANY KNIVE. THE PRICE WAS GREAT ALSO.
Good for the Price September 14, 2009 Walker In The Woods (Missouri, USA) If you are looking for a good sharpener in this price range then this is it. It does a good job on my Fiskars Chopping Axe. I am not sure how good it would do on knives. I have only used it on my axe. But for the price this is a good sharpener.
