The performance of this stone is great. However, there is an obvious dent on a corner of the stone. This is not acceptable for a product cost 100 euro.

This whetstone is something completely different... in a good way. It polishes the edge as if it is almost in a 4000 grit range but gives you a real nice sharpening feel as if it was closer to a 2000 grit stone. I use this whetstone the most. 1) It is the final stone for my German (softer steel, mostly meat cutting) knives. Just a few stropping moves after this stone, and my knives sing. 2) It is step toward a finer grit stones (8000) on my Japanese (harder steel, mostly vegetables) knives. It is just great. I love it.

好东西，磨的很丝滑

Wednesday, July 6, 2022

3000 grit. I read a lot of reviews and watch too many videos before making this purchase. Splash and go was how I wanted to use a stone. After use, I think the stone is softer than I was lead to believe, creates a fine paste as you sharpen , so you are wearing the stone ! Although this is minimal . But the edge the 3000 produces is clean and smooth , this holds a good edge. This is an edge most people would be happy with and because of the clean edge I think this makes it feel sharper. I am using the stone with a 400 - 1000 . For normal honing I would be happy to just use the 3000 , for recovery the 1000 is not course enough for me , takes too long . 3 knives , 3 stones , not rushing and enjoying 30 minutes. Make sure you have a clear area as you will make a bit of a mess with the water and slurry
