Good quality BB's. Nice and polished and no seams or powdery residue.

I use them in an M9 spring pistol.

Important to note that .12g BB's are not for high-powered AEG's, which are meant to shoot .20g or heavier.

I bought this bag for a hiking trip coming up in April 2010. I have not yet been but have been filling the bag to the hilt getting ready for our trip. The nice part about the bag is that you can pack as light or as heavy as you want due to the amount of room (which is alot). I have had the bag for about a month and in that time I have put it on and taken it off probably 50 times. The only problem I had was the waist clasp broke which only cost me 34 cents to replace and the breast strap needed a little sewing as it was seperating, I fixed myself with thread and needle found around the house. No other problems. I will leave a better review upon returning from our trip to the Appalachian Mountains for 3 weeks. OHHHHHH Yeaaaaa!!!!!!

I bought the Lansky Deluxe 5 Hone kit to replace another manufacturer's 3 piece set. This kit is easy to use & works very well. Used properly, it gives a very sharp edge to all my knives, from the smallest pen knife to a large hunting knife. I would strongly urge everyone who purchases this set, or any other set, to read & follow the instructions carefully. The system is definitely worth the price.

I got this backpack for my 13 year old nephew for Christmas. It was constructed much better than I thought for the price and had so many storage pockets. He was thrilled and it was a good size for him to start out with. The price for these run pretty high so I was excited to give him what he wanted within my budget.

great sharpening system!, November 19, 2007

First off, Im not a professional chef. I was lucky enough to work under a great chef when I was in college and learned to value a sharp edged knife. I have purchased a lot of knives over the years. I have good german knives (F Dick) and good japanese knives (Misono, Hattori and Shun) I have never been able to put a good edge on a knife consistently. Ive gotten to the point that I rotate and send out my knives to be professionally sharpened...and wrecked.

Ah...The Lansky System. it is a system...it works, its fairly easy and it consistently puts a great edge on my knives. I practiced on some NSF junk I keep to put out for the inlaws when they house sit and they edge it put on the pitted and chunked edge was great. if you buy it get the universal mount because it can be awkward w/o it.

If you are shooting a spring airsoft that shoots 300 fps or less I recomend these .12 tsd bbs. You cannot ask for a better bb put out from tsd that is what I use for my guns. No jams so far great shooting bbs that reduce your chances of messing up your gun by shooting cheap bbs.

This bag is amazing for the price point that it is. There is tons of room for whatever you need to stuff inside. I used this bag for a 3 week trip to Europe where I pretty much lived out of it. It is very well made and quite sturdy. The only downside is that there are no "bells and whistles" that it's $250-400 competitors might have. And to be honest, this bag serves all of the same functions.. Great bag!!!

Best BB I have used, January 26, 2007

Shan Carballo "www.shancarballo.com" -

The Stealth/Team SD BB's are well shaped never have any snags or deformations as you may find with some of the really cheap Chinese BB's - cheaper BB's can cause the gun to jam and perhaps ruin your airsoft gun. Use a high quality grade BB like this one and always make sure you are using the correct weight. Use .12 g BB's for lower end spring pistols and rifles and cheap AEG's with plastic gearboxes, but only use .20 g, .25 g and above for high end AEG's with metal gearboxes, gas guns, and even some high end spring guns such as the Desert Eagle .50 AE made by SoftAirUSA/Cyber gun. The Team SD/Stealth BBs are some of the best BB's I've used and we only use these, or some of comparable quality here in order to keep our airsoft guns in good firing condition.

Complete set - Lansky is the easiest way to use stones to sharpen your knives., May 26, 2008

Joshua G. Feldman "Technophile" (New York) -

This review is from: Lansky Deluxe 5-Stone Sharpening System (Sports)

I've owned the Lansky system for almost 20 years and have been very happy with it. It enables me to get fantastically sharp knives every time with a bit of elbow grease but without having much actual skill. Lansky's system is a brilliant arrangement of a knife clamp with sets of holes that ensure consistent grinding angle for the stones that have long steel guides. This solves the problem of how to hold the stone to the knife at a consistent angle. Using stones to sharpen your knives gives you total control and allows you to achieve the finest edge (much finer than using a chef's choice, motorized bench grinder (which can overheat the blade ruining the temper), or any of those ceramic wheel/rod dohickeys). The available angle choices are 17 degrees (for Asian knives), 20 and 25 (for Western knives) and 30 degrees (for hatchets). Lansky offers various different stones (from natural Arkansas stones, to diamond abrasive). This particular set includes their entire line of synthetic stones - extra coarse, coarse, medium, fine, and extra fine. The stones are of good quality. You'll only use the extra coarse the first time you sharpen a given knife it cuts very quickly). The fine is fine enough to get your blades shaving sharp, but the extra fine really puts the last bit of super sharpness. They also give you a bottle of sharpening oil to help carry away the metal shavings to keep the stones cutting. I don't like using oil so I keep a wet paper towel handy when sharpening and wipe the metal off the stones and blade periodically while sharpening that that works fine for me.

To use the Lansky the process is simple - clamp the blade into the clamp - then scrub the blade against the stone with a consistent angle until you feel a burr (a thin raised seam) along the edge. The burr is your cue to flip the blade over and do the other side. When you get burr on the other side, move onto the next stone. By the time you get to the final fine grade polishing stone and get burr on the last side, then flip and give slight touch with the stone on the other side (to remove the burr but not raise another one) and you'll find your knife is literally shaving sharp (will cut the hairs off your arm).

Is Lansky the perfect sharpening system? For medium and small knives it probably is. Knives over 6"-7" long, however, require you to sharpen 1/2 the knife and then move the clamp and sharpen the other half because the edge angle changes too much if you attempt to sharpen too far from the guide hole. The stones themselves are pretty small (about as wide as your middle finger and as long as your hand) so it can take a long time to do a big knife. I can do a 5" utility knife in about 5-10 minutes, but an 8" Chef's knife can take more than double that - which starts to become a bit of a big project. If you do a lot of big knives you'll probably want to spring for an Edge Pro Apex (same mechanical concept, bigger size for much much more money). If you only periodically sharpen then this can be lived with. You shouldn't sharpen your knives more than once or twice a year (or they wear out too quickly) since sharpening removes metal. You should use a honing steel frequently in between sharpenings to keep your knives sharp.

Lansky's system is the best way for normal regular people (non fanatics) to sharpen their knives. It's pretty easy, fun, satisfying, and extremely effective.

Price was right but for some reason, one shoe feels longer than the other. I have had Salomons before, on this shoe toe area is not comfortable at all and i would not wear them to hike.
