Fallkniven DC3 / DC4 Whetstones

I already own an DC3 & decided to get the DC4 because of the slight increase in size, I've had great results with my DC3 & now with the DC4, I.M.O. you can't get a better pocket stone for ease of use & price. Although there are reports of the stones splitting, neither of mine ever have. I'd highly recommend either if these stones for all of your sharpening needs, and before you think you need something larger, let me just add that I've had great results putting an edge on one of my 10inch blades with a DC3.

No quality issues as yet after several months. Use this stone and a short leather strop for my small knives and it works very well indeed. Really handy if you just need to get an edge back quickly. Nice pouch makes it easy to carry and store.

Okay, I bought several ones of all versions in these years. I found very disappointing a lack of consistency within quality assurance of these great stones. The latest one are fine for sharpening but worse than the first years one. In the middle I found many versions, many glueing issues, many inconsistencies in the ceramic side... The latest one have the diamond side glued with a strange black gummy glue. Not as resistant as the first version. Plus the ceramic side is no more polishing and it's noticeably coarser than the first versions. The smaller in previous versions had a fantastic ceramic weaving, polishing fantastic. Now no. Well they are great stones for the use in the field, anyway but they are losing ground from other competitors due this not improving politics. Sorry Fallkniven. But anytime excellent experience from Heinnie. Number One Service.

I use this sharpener out in the field as it is light, brings a razor sharp edge quickly (and I am no expert when it comes to sharpening) and sits in my Ribz pack unnoticed until needed. I have also used this to sharpen my axe in the field and with some platform innovation I was able to meet all of my sharpening needs easily. Practical little sharpener that is convenient and works extremely well. HH service continues to amaze, Awesome.

No quality issues at all, seen the bad reviews and got it anyway, mine cuts through the blade and delivers a perfect edge, have recommended it to friends and they like theirs. This is a seriously good sharpener for small pockets.

Received stone today sharpened 4 multiblade knives and 4 single blade knives including a bushcraft knife in no time. Again great service from HH.

Less-than-a-day delivery, as usual, from Heinnie. No surprise there then! No problems with quality of stone, but I hope it becomes less coarse on the sapphire side as my benchstone is chert/cutlers' greenstone, which can't be beat for finish. Still, highly practical with a v. nice pouch and affordable Fallkniven kit!

A great product for the price. Fantastic fast service from Heinnie.

Simply a nicely put together piece of kit. Great! Recommended.
