Two-stage pull-through manual sharpener with diamond abrasives, set up for Asian-style edges (roughly 15° per side). Stage 1 sharpens, stage 2 hones/polishes. No power needed. Good for quick touch-ups on Japanese-style kitchen knives. Used but in working condition.

Round ceramic honing rod with a black hex handle (the hex flat keeps it from rolling on the counter). Realigns and lightly refines an edge between sharpenings; gentler and finer than a grooved steel, so it works well on harder kitchen knives. Ceramic — will chip if dropped on a hard floor.

Classic grooved steel honing rod with a black plastic handle and a hanging ring on the butt. For realigning a rolled edge on softer Western kitchen knives between real sharpenings — it straightens the edge rather than removing much metal.

Combination waterstone: #1000 side (blue) for setting and sharpening an edge, #6000 side (white) for finishing and polishing. Comes with a bamboo holder and non-slip rubber base. Soak in water before use. Good general-purpose stone for kitchen knives, chisels and plane irons.

Compact pull-through sharpener with a molded pistol-style handle. Carbide/ceramic slots for knives plus a dedicated slot for left-handed scissors. Quick and cheap way to bring back a dull working edge — not a precision tool, but handy for shop knives, garden shears and scissors.

Black-oxide impact-rated socket, 1-1/2 inch, standard depth, with a retaining-pin hole. The kind of size you need for big suspension, trailer axle, or heavy equipment fasteners. Drive size isn't confirmed from the photo — ask before you make the trip if it matters.

Chrome-moly impact-rated step-up adapter: 1/2 inch female to 3/4 inch male, with detent ball and pin hole. Lets you run 3/4 inch drive sockets off a 1/2 inch gun or ratchet. Mind the torque — stepping up doesn't give the smaller drive more muscle.

Chrome-moly impact-rated step-down adapter: 3/4 inch female to 1/2 inch male, with detent ball and pin hole. Lets you run 1/2 inch drive sockets off a 3/4 inch gun or breaker bar. Easy to overpower 1/2 inch sockets this way, so go gently on the trigger.

Complete Japanese sharpening kit, lent as a set: • Shapton Kuromaku K0702 "Orange Medium" (commonly #1000) — sets and sharpens the edge • Shapton Kuromaku K0704 "Enji Fine" (commonly #5000) — refines • Shapton Kuromaku K0710 "Melon Fine" (commonly #8000) — final polish • Suihei-kun PA#100 flattening stone — trues the stones back to flat, never touches a blade The Shaptons are splash-and-go: a spritz of water, no soaking needed. Each stores in its own snap-shut case that doubles as a stand. The PA#100 does need a soak before use, and plenty of water while lapping. The flattening stone is included because whetstones dish out in the middle with use, and a dished stone makes a consistent angle impossible. Pencil-grid trick: scribble a crosshatch on the stone's face, take a few passes on the flattener, and any pencil left behind marks a low spot not yet reached. All made in Japan.
