Yep, I have the wallet-sized one. I'm just waiting for me to forget about it and get weird looks in a security line somewhere...

Call me nuts, but what are you going to use a hone that size on? I never just have to hone something so bad that I would whip it out of my wallet

I actually carry a 4 inch Machinist DMT fine in my back left pocket all the time (for over 20 years; it's also in my avatar). Comes in real handy whenever a knife needs touched-up.

It's easy to sharpen a knife on even a 3 inch hone.

Yeah, I use it on my Spyderco Native EDC to keep it in fighting trim. I even used it on a 9-inch chef's knife the other day just for the heck of it. Mainly I want to keep practicing my freehand knife sharpening skills.

One great thing about the 8x3 is that it fits perfectly in the hone stand that comes with the Norton. It's like they are a full set.
