I tend to use scp more than sftp, but in case some examples would help:
scp file.tar.gz host2:
(puts file.tar.gz into your homedir on host2)
scp -r somedirectory host2:
(copies somedirectory and its contents to your homedir on host2)
scp host2:file.tar.gz ./
(copies file.tar.gz from your homedir on host2 to the current directory)
cat file2.tar.gz | ssh host2 "cat > file2.tar.gz"
(another way of copying a file to your homedir on host2)
ssh host2 "tar cf - somedirectory" | tar xf -
(anotherway of copying a directory from host2 to the workstation)
I always like examples when I'm dealing with something new. :-)
