Swix Ski Tuning Kit

Nice to have a bag to store everything. However, did not contain wax that my husband was looking for. Returned it.

The pamphlet/directions didn't relate directly to the products in the bag.

The scraper and the file are the only two useful pieces to this kit. I bought it hoping I could do everything with it but the wax sucked so I went and bought melting wax. The file works okay but you're better off getting a file for 15 dollars, a scaper and wax for 10 dollars.

Bought this mostly for edge file. Wax is liquid which it does not tell you. Works fine, just not what I usally use.

Kit did not include hard wax only a liquid wax that I do not use

The only other comment would be about the scrapper, it would be nice if there was a corner cut out on it dedicated for edges. Oh and I haven't used their wax yet

Wax is wax, and Swix is the brand that is probably best known. The kit includes wax, a wax scraper, some polishing devices (think the green side of your kitchen sponge), a mediocre adjustable edge sharpener, and a relatively huge carrying bag. This is NOT a professional tuning kit, but a stop-gap measure for buffing your edges and adding some wax when necessary. It is perfect for tune-ups, but not full tunes. I wouldn't pay the MSRP for this item, but for the Sierra Trading Post price, I couldn't find nearly as good a deal on the included pieces I needed. The bag is large enough to also hold a waxing iron, however, so that is convenient.

The 'retail' price listed would have been way overpriced for the quanity and quality of the items.

Would not have bought it at any more than it was priced.

Needs to be specified; not for nordic classic or skate skis. Great for anything with an edge!
