Quick take
Dual-grit diamond file sharpens fishing hooks of all sizes with non-slip handles.
This is a pair of pocket-size diamond hook files, each about 4 inches long and weighing 0.8 ounces for the set. Each file has a fine 800 grit side and a medium 600 grit side with grooves for pulling a hook through. Keep one in the tackle box and one in a vest to touch up dull points on everything from small trout hooks to saltwater sizes.
Best for
- Touching up hooks between fishing days
- Field sharpening when catching dulls hooks
- Anglers who tie their own flies or rigs
Skip if
- You prefer to replace hooks instead of sharpening
- You fish only occasionally and keep spare hooks
Strengths
- Diamond grit provides faster sharpening than traditional whetstones
- 800 grit fine side hones to ultra-sharp points
- 600 grit removes nicks from damaged hooks
Trade-offs
- Small size requires careful hand positioning to avoid cuts
- Portable design means less aggressive sharpening than bench stones
- Two sharpeners may be redundant for casual anglers
