Corona Sharpening Tool, Garden Tool Blade Sharpener, AC 8300

I had seen these for years and was always skeptical. I have diamond, whet stone and fine file sharpeners and have never liked any power sharpeners. All my sharpening took a lot of work. I finally bought one of these. Wow I was astounded, they work! Even used it to sharpen lawn mower blades. Still have my other sharing tools but never use them anymore. I always have a corona in my pocket. Sometimes use them at steakhouses, a few passes wipe the blade off and I can cut my steak with no problem. Buy one and try it, low cost makes it worth a try.

I think this little pocket tool is a great value for the money. I have used it on my garden tools as well as my scissors. Has made the items sharper! Over Easter dinner I shared this little tool with my dad, uncle & aunt. Their father but my grandfather had a tool sharpening business in his home. Boy did he have the clients! I sure wish someone in the family had taken up his trade! Since no one did, I started looking around for something to help me as it was frustrating using good items that had lost their sharpness. TY for making this little tool!

It really does sharpen scissors, hedge trimmers, knives, etc. I really didn't expect too much , but it was on sale and I thought I would give it a try. Not very good if there is a nick on the edge; it will hang on the nick. I like it best for quickly sharpening my knives. Using a steel after gives a very fine edge.

Works well on outdoor tools. Instructions on use could be better, like at what angle should it be held. After watching a few you tube videos I have it doing the job. One page in the instructions would have made a big difference.

Works well for my limited needs. Using to sharpen loppers, clippers, etc, with limited curves and no serrations. Some of my blades were a bit rusty, so took more work, but still easy to use. Great value.

Works great. Only thing I'd worry about is how close you have your fingers to the blade when sharpening. This thing worked so well that I cut my fingers a few times ensuring I had the correct angle.

The Corona AC 8300 is a handy tool designed to sharpen all straight blades, excluding saw blades. Its small size allows for easy storage in pockets or tool bags, and the non-slip grip ensures safe use.

Yikes! I thought this would be mostly snake oil, because I had seen similar products at the flea market, but it's the real deal holyfield! Two-three passes on your CUTTING edge, and shes done. Not only can you do small tools, but works great on bigger blades such as shears and even lawnmower blades. Will definitely purchase again after I wear this one down!
