Product Description
The ESEE Field Sharpening Kit (Medium Grit) is a compact, dual-sided pocket hone for repairing and restoring edges in the field. It pairs a DMT medium-grit diamond face with a genuine leather strop on the reverse, packed in a brown leather carry case, at just 4.00" long and 2.00 oz.
DMT monocrystalline diamond plating cuts steel quickly and evenly, and it works dry, so there's no oil or water to carry. The medium grit is built for repair work: removing small chips, reshaping a blunted or rolled bevel, and bringing a badly dulled edge back to working sharpness. It's well suited to the 1095 carbon steel used on many ESEE knives. After the diamond face, the leather strop side removes the burr left from honing and polishes the new edge. The leather case protects both surfaces from dirt and grit in a pack or pocket.
- Abrasive Face: DMT monocrystalline diamond plating, medium grit, for chip repair, bevel reshaping, and edge restoration. No oil or water required.
- Finishing Face: Genuine leather strop pad for removing burrs and polishing the edge.
- Included: Brown leather protective carry case.
- Carry: 4.00" x 0.875" x 0.625", 2.00 oz.
Ideal for: search and rescue personnel, hunters, and bushcrafters who need to fix a damaged edge on the trail without a full sharpening setup; ESEE owners who want a matched sharpener for their 1095 carbon steel knives; and fixed blade or folder users who want diamond and strop in one pocket tool.

ESEE Field Sharpening Kit Medium Grit: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about the ESEE Field Sharpening Kit with a DMT medium-grit diamond hone, leather strop, and leather carry case (ESEE-SHARP-M).
What is the ESEE Field Sharpening Kit Medium Grit used for?+
It's a pocket-size hone for repairing and restoring edges in the field. The medium-grit DMT diamond face removes steel quickly to work out small chips, reshape a blunted bevel, and bring a dull edge back to working sharpness, and the leather strop on the reverse removes the burr and polishes the edge. It works dry, with no oil or water required.
What comes in the kit?+
The kit includes the dual-sided hone, with a DMT medium-grit diamond face on one side and a genuine leather strop on the other, plus a brown leather protective carry case. Contents are subject to change by the manufacturer.
How do I use the hone and strop?+
Hold the blade at its existing edge angle and work it across the diamond face, alternating sides, until any chips are worked out and the edge feels sharp along its full length. Then flip the hone to the leather side and strop with the edge trailing, pulling the blade away from the edge rather than into it, to remove the burr and polish the edge.
Should I choose the medium or fine grit kit?+
Choose this medium grit kit if you need to remove steel faster to repair chips, rolls, or a badly dulled edge. Choose the fine grit kit (ESEE-SHARP-F) if you sharpen regularly and want to keep a good edge sharp while removing less steel. Many users carry both, using medium for repair and fine for maintenance. Both are available at Knifeworks.
How do I care for the diamond hone and strop?+
Wipe metal filings off the diamond face after use and let it dry fully before returning it to the case. Keep the leather strop dry and free of grit, since trapped debris can scratch an edge. Storing the hone in its leather case helps keep both surfaces clean between uses.
Who provides the warranty, and where is it made?+
Warranty coverage is provided by the manufacturer, not Knifeworks. Contact ESEE for current warranty terms and service. The ESEE Field Sharpening Kit is made in the USA.
