This double-sided sharpening stone is suitable for most kitchen knives, regardless of blade style or steel type. Its understated, elegant design complements any kitchen. Measuring 18 × 6 × 2.8 cm, the whetstone is compact, easy to store, and convenient to use.
Made from high-quality ceramic, this combination sharpening stone features the two grit levels most commonly required for knife maintenance: #400 and #1000. The #400 grit side is coarse and intended for repairing minor chips, nicks, and damaged blade edges. The #1000 grit side is designed for regular sharpening and restoring the knife's sharpness. The set also includes a water reservoir, making it easy to moisten the stone during sharpening. Water cools the blade, reduces friction, improves sharpening performance, and helps extend the life of the knife's edge.
Before use, soak the whetstone in water for approximately 10–20 minutes until air bubbles stop appearing. During sharpening, always keep the stone covered with a thin layer of water. This sharpening stone is the best choice when a knife has become very dull, has minor edge damage, and requires more extensive sharpening to restore its cutting performance.
