1844 Helko Werk Sharpening Stone Leather Pouch - Leather Accessory for Axe Sharpening Stones

I waited a while before putting this order in, hoping that the issue other customers had encountered would have been solved but the snap is so strong that no matter how gentle I was the snap tore off anyway and another thing I noticed was that the reviews that state this are hidden under ( see more reviews ) the main reviews are all the positive ones . That doesn't seem right to me , as another customer wrote " Buyer beware" !

I had the same defect as others have had. I took the pouch out of the bag and the snap broke the first time I tried to open it. So much for quality. UPDATE 07-JUNE-2021 I am updating my rating from a 1 to a 5 mostly because of customer service (but the pouch is nice too). Helko North America is monitoring reviews and quickly responded to my problem. They sent me a new pouch promptly and explained that they had a batch run of pouches where the snap stud did not seat properly. They mailed a new pouch to me immediately. I found this attentiveness refreshing in an era where most companies take an "I don't care about the customer" attitude. Would buy again without hesitation.

It's tight on the puck and the snap is strong. I wanted to hold them in a leather case rather than nylon... I think the price should be a lot lower though. That's mainly why I can't give it a higher rating.

All I needed to do was touch it and feel it in my hand, and I new it was quality crafted. I own property that I maintain and for which I am a steward. I always have some type of bladed tool with me, whether it is clippers, or a felling are, and usually take my puck with me. This pouch has the thickness to stand up to an abrasive puck, and fits well on my belt or toolbelt. I can now have my puck easily at hand to give a quick sharpening! It makes a great gift too.

I found this pouch to be smaller than the description stated on Amazon. It did not fit my 3" x 1" puck.
