Kitchen Knife Sharpening Stone - 2 Sided Whetstone,1000/6000 Grit Knife Sharpening Stones | Chef Sharpening Stone | Wetstone, Non-Slip Base & Angle Guide Included

The sharpening stone arrived in a bubble wrap so it was protected from any damage. I read the instructions on the box and tried it out on one of our regular kitchen knives. The sharpening was easy. The bamboo base has rubber on the bottom so it makes the whole unit nonskid. The stone did not move at all while I was sharpening which makes it much easier to maintain the correct angle on the knife. I am very happy with this sharpening stone and now we have sharp knives to cut things up with in the kitchen. I also used the sharpening stone to sharpen my pocket knife.

It's been a long time since I've used a stone so it took me a little while to get reaclamated to it. Once I got the edge angle dialed in I was a fiend and began sharpening every blade I could get my hands on. Highly recommended and the bamboo stand is super exceptional. Put a great edge on all my knives and a tactical axe!

A great stone, makes a great edge for pocket and kitchen knives alike. make sure you take care of it though, the wood will mold if left wet.

For the price, this is a good stone. You can achieve razor sharp knives with this system, but...The 1000 grit stone is so soft that it makes excessive slurry and dishes quickly. I will be doing good to get 25-30 sharpenings from the 1000 side. The 6000 side is a decent hardness and will adequately hone your edge, although still a little softer than I like.

I have used dozens of sharpening devices in the past and the price on this stone was just right. Tried it on hunting knives as well as kitchen knives and they're sharp enough to shave with. Sharpened a chisel set with it and they're super sharp. Excellent

The two different side split the first time I tried to run water over it. Not impressed. I'm sure the individual pieces are still usable, but I would be wary of buying another one from this brand.

The media could not be loaded. These sharpening stones are made of very good quality, and I used them to sharpen a couple of dull kitchen knives, and was able to get them razor sharp. The stones need to be wet to work on the metal properly. Highly recommended! Check out my unboxing video and mark my review if helpful!

***To skip the wordy experience, scroll to Pros and ConsVery dissatisfied with this product. It made me question my ability because I could not retain an edge when using it. I start off with my cheap dollar store "400 grit" and can get a really sharp edge-- paper cut test, shave test, and nail grip test, ect-- and have been doing so for a number of years. I thought I should elevate my sharpening game by getting finer grits so I decided to get this one. I did and it got decently sharp but I noticed the degradation of the edge when using this stone. Instead of refining the edge that was developed with the dollar store stone, it dulled it. Don't get me wrong, the edge was still sharp, but not nearly as sharp as when I used the cheaper stone. The two upsides are that the 6000 grit polishes the blade really nice and the base is amazing for the price. All that said, why pay around $20 for something a dollar store product could do? Though the edge does not look quite as nice.Pros:-6000 grit polishes nicely-Base is stellar and does not slip even on slippery surfaces (see cons for downside)-comes with angle guideCons:-Does not sharpen well(compared to dollar store "400 grit" stone)- my have you question your ability to sharpen anything-1000 grit is practically useless-base will tend to mold unless thoroughly dried before being left out
