5.0 out of 5 stars sans fingerprints, November 26, 2010

I use this cleaning cloth for wiping down my handguns before putting them away for storage. Works especially well on nitron finishes, leaving a professional looking sheen that's not highly reflective. I fold and store the cloth in a small Ziploc bag, and keep that in my range bag. You'll want to wash your hands (or wipe them with a dry cloth if you're away from water) after handling this cleaning cloth, as it is impregnated with silicone.

When I ordered this item, the product description read "quantity: 10 PK." I was disappointed when I received only one cleaning cloth. I notified amazon customer service, and as of this date they have not fixed their description. Other than the misleading quantity description, I am satisfied with the price and quality of this cleaning cloth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Cleaning your Gun, December 27, 2010

This is a great product. It's so much easier than wetting cleaning cloths with gun oil which in my experience results in applying more oil to the exterior of your gun than really necessary. These cloths are gentle on the exterior but contain the oil to preserve your gun's exterior and remove harmful oils, moisture, fingerprints, etc. Like another reviewer, I'm pretty sure the item description has been wrong in the past, as I believe it used to say it was a pack of 6 cloths. This has now been corrected, but please realize there is only one (admittedly large) cloth in the bag. It is so large I have considered cutting it into a few smaller ones since I'm using it for a handgun but for a long gun it's probably nice to have the larger one. All in all, I'm very satisfied with the product and would definitely use this on my gun's exterior over any other product. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to keep their weapon in its pristine condition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for knives and swords too!, April 7, 2008

While they call it a gun & reel cloth, the silicone impregnated oil in this cloth is perfect for maintaining knives and swords as well. Great product as it cleans, polishes, protects, and wipes away moisture and dirt.
