I haven't personally, but gets very good reports, and is used by a lot of knife users.

I have been using it for awhile, it does a good job, and is cheaper. Harold

It works good for me. I use it a lot and it’s much cheaper than other ones I have tried.

I use it every time I get an old knife that needs its' bolster shined up. Wish I had read this about 30 minutes ago, could have shown a before and after on an old John Primble Belknap knife. ::hmm:: Come to think of it I've got a picture from yesterday when it came in the mail and I'll take one to show what a few minutes with Mothers will do. :)

It works good. I've used on a soft buffing wheel as well when hand polishing just wasn't a reasonable alternative.

For some reason, I thought this thread might be about pierogi & sausages...
