   I too would like to hear comments from users. I own one, but have not done much sharpening with it as yet.

   Since there aren't any other, I'll tell you my experience.  I have seen the same woman doing demo's of this tool in Detroit, Atlanta, Denver and various cities in CA over the last several years  I travel a fair bit and try to go to shows whenever I'm in the right town at the right time.  She is fun to watch.

   Anyway, I asked if I could try to use the tool right there when she wasn't doing a demo.  She told me to come back at the end of the day.  I purchased a chisel at Peachtree in the next aisle and I bounced it off the concrete floor until it was chipped and in need of grinding and sharpening.  Then I went back to her booth at the appointed time.  After 15 minutes with my damaged chisle I can tell you I'm not steady enough to use it free hand the way she did.  It was sharp but not straight and flat.  If I bought it I would have to design and build a jig of some kind.  She assured me I would get better at it after a few hours practice, I decided to pass.  I did see her again in Detroit earlier this month and I said "hello," but still didn't buy.

   Thanks for your input. After seeing the girl you are speaking of in a promotional video, I would make it a point to stop at their trade show booth regularly.
