Yeti,
Some things are better to take your time with.
I have found it is better to hand sharpen your hooks, you can get a feel for the hook and you wont over grind all your hooks!
I think you get a lot better edge when you do it by hand!
Do what I do, bring all the boxes in the house, sit them down in the frontroom, plop down on the couch and go to work!

Good luck!

Go with the double round file in a handle. Not an electric but you won't get your hooks any sharper than they can make one.
