Care:
CAUTION: Always wear heavy gloves and eye protection when cleaning or sharpening a blade with this product.
1. Clean the edge of your blade using the wire brush if needed. To remove brush, press on end of brush closest to sharpening head to raise opposite end, then grasp handle and remove from cavity.
CAUTION: Always push the brush across and away from the cutting edge when cleaning your blade. To replace brush after use, insert bristles of brush into cavity first, then slide forward and push down until brush is fully inset in handle.
2. Secure your axe, hatchet, or machete blade by placing it in a vise with the cutting edge exposed.
3. Position the head of the sharpener over one end of the blade, then lower the unit down so that the cutting edge is resting in the bottom of the V-shaped slot. Hold the sharpener as parallel to the cutting edge as possible.
4. Apply moderate downward pressure and pull the sharpener over the cutting edge from one end to the other. Maintain constant pressure and follow the contour of the blade as you pull. CAUTION: Always keep all fingers behind the finger guard and never place free hand on top of the sharpener during use.
5. The first time you sharpen a ground edge with this sharpener or if you are sharpening a damaged edge, repeat this action approximately 15 – 20 pulls. Additional pulls may be required if the blade is made of very hard steel. If re-sharpening an edge that has previously been sharpened with this sharpener and is NOT damaged, it should only take approximately 10 – 15 pulls to restore sharpness. Again, additional pulls may be required if the blade is made of very hard steel
The Opinel knife is a design classic and the carbon steel bladed version is my favourite as it can be easily sharpened. The simple locking ring makes sure that unlike penknives, the blade cannot fold onto your fingers. The 7VRN is an ideal size for everyday use as a picnic knife, or a camping knife.

I contacted the store asking whether they could advise me for the correct camon net to be used as a shade for my vehicle and whether the ropes on the net were strong enough to be strung from the four corners. The guy sarcastically said, " Yes, the net I had chosen was the correct one. " On receiving the item, I found that the net was incorrect and was advised I was lumbered with the cost for return because I bought the item online . To say correspondence is poor is an understatement; they have emailed me with no formalities in the mail that I need to supply my bank details to get the refund. Surely they could use the details I used to buy it. Terrible service, terrible store
Very disappointed with my purchase, I bought a Buck knife but it was a copy made in China!
True buck knifes are made in America.
Still haven't received my refund.
