I like it. Takes awhile to get used to it and get it down, but very effective. I use this sometimes, but also a Tom Anderson Kult 6 Knife I bought of Amazon.com for 7 bucks. I sharpen that knife with an electric knife sharpener after every use though. http://www.amazon.com/Tom-Anderson-Knives-Kult-Folder/dp/B00I8YPQ18/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1406468149&sr=8-1&keywords=red+tom+anderson+kult&dpPl=1

Cannot believe tempest promotes, ( offers as a worthwhile tool to own, use). the tempest oil filter media cutter is extremely disappointing. works and appears like a five dollar item ----NOT a forty one dollar plus shipping, tool! ---- expected better from tempest.
