Featured Comments

I have a similar set (most of these stones on amazon are generic ripoffs of eachother).
Mine called to be soaked in water for 5 minutes before use. As a reference you can mostly use oil on a stone at any time, but once you use oil on a stone you cant go back to just using water.
I got this last time. I must say this kit is very good value.

I have some good knives, some good stones and a couple of Lasky systems (controlled angle). I've tested this kit on both fancy steel German and Japanese knives and on a $5 stainless kitchen aid and I was able to slice paper afterwards with all of them.

Stones are like running shoes. You can get pretty fit and fast on $10 shoes if you have good technique and practice. You will not win races by buying $200 shoes and being a couch potato.

These cheap stones do work, if you have good technique and practice. Expensive stones won't make you a good sharpener if you don't put the effort to learn how to use them. If you want fool-proof results, I would suggest a controlled-angle system ($50-500) but for me, stones are way more fun!
It is $34, not $49. Regardless, I posted as several people asked if there is a recommended, better whetstone than what was originally posted.

They are a bit more $, but stick with King as a brand, great quality and easy to use with water. A 400 and a 1000 is all you should need unless you are very hard on blades

The instructions are on the amazon page as one of the product images. It says to soak it with water for 15-20 minutes. More: https://images-na.ssl-images-amaz...L1500_.jpg
