The best use for these often goes unnoticed. If you use carbide insert lathe tools (easywood, etc) these will sharpen your inserts. Take of the insert, lay it upside down on the file with the flat part down and just rub it back and forth 5 or 6 times. You can get about a dozen sharpenings out of a single insert.

I use the hones to keep my Drill Press Forestner bits as well as my Parting and Skew cutters on my Wood Lathe in peak sharpness. After repeated use in hard woods my tools can loose their edge. With miminal effort I use the hones with water to restore sharpness.

They are small, but that makes them handy for touching up a tools edge. The blade of my marking knife has benefited the most so far.
