These are awesome sticks. Was a little hesitant as any ive had before didn't do much. Honestly a few strokes and the edge is ready.

It was the first time that I used this type of sharpening I sharpened 3 blade broadheads. It really worked well. I’m impressed. I put a good edge on some knives as well.

I've used the steamboat sharpener for 25 years . For keeping your everyday carry knife hair popping sharp it's the quickest and most accurate sharpener on the market!

Great storage for my sharpener. Everything fits perfect. Very well made! Thumbs up to your sharpener also.

Love it. Easy to use and sharpens knives as expected.

By far the easiest and quickest sharpener I’ve ever used to get a shaving edge on all of my knives, and I’ve tried a lot of sharpeners over the years. Keep coming back to SSS. Had a problem with some rods, contacted SSS, and they handled it perfectly. Got to be the best customer service I’ve ever dealt with. 100% recommend this product and brand.

I’ve been using the steamboat sharpener since the late 90’s. It’s easy to use and I’m able to get my knives razor sharp fast with little effort and the customer service is great. I have an old base from 1999 with the original 1/2 in rods, I ordered 2 3/8 inch premium rods and they fit perfectly in my old base and brought it back to life. .

I purchased my second Hallstead knife today. Love the feel and functionality, great looking knife doesn’t hurt either.
