Knife Sharpening Stone, Premium Knife Sharpening Kit, 2 Side Grit 1000/6000 Whetstone, Wet Stone, Nonslip Base, Angle Guide and Flattening Ston e

PROS: Knife sharpening has a lot to do with the technique and less on the quality of the stone. With that out of the way, this is a good setup for your knives around the kitchen. The two-sided stone does a very good job sharpening not only your knives, but other cutting tools too (I use it to sharpen a machete too). For the common household, as it is in my case, I realized that it's not totally necessary to use both sides to get a sharp edge on a knife. The blue side (1000 grit) does a pretty good job of sharpening knives for daily all-around use, such as cutting vegetables, fruits, cheeses, etc. The 6000-grit side is there if you really want to hone your knife for cutting meats or for more precise cutting. It's built to last. I've had it for a couple of years. I use it on a regular basis, and it barely wore off. CONS: the wooden base has a rubber pad on the bottom to avoided slippage, but it doesn't do a very good job at it. I find myself having to sit the base and the stone on a piece of wet cloth on my counter to avoid the eventual slipping that I inevitably always happen. Also, the base seems to be made out of bamboo, and with time and the wetness of the stone after its use caused it to turn dark due to mold growth.

Great whetstone. Does the job. Especially like the size to sharpen my larger knives.

Nice stone, sharpens knives very well. For example, it is enough to sharpen my Samura knives once every 2-3 months. Convenient stand, but there is one problem with it. After the 1st use, both the stand and rubber became covered with mold, despite the fact that I dried it well for 1-2 days until completely dry after use. After the second use (photo), there was so much mold that the stand had to be thrown away (not sure about the rubber yet), it became inconvenient to sharpen without them. So, if you can find the same store with better stand I would recommend to buy that model.

Works well

Great price, Nice basic sharpening stone

The stone seems to work well. The plastic angle tool supplied didn't even survive the first use. The ceramic bar (there are 4) fell off on first use, hit my wood table i was using and cracked in half!

Good knife sharpening stone
