Review: It's an artform - Knife sharpening on any whetstone requires more skills than basic marketing will lead you to believe. It requires patience and diligence. If you give it time and effort, it will bear fruit. In this case, a nicely sharpened blade. Whetstones have a very high skill ceiling and will not be rewarding to those who are unwilling to put in the time. It works well if you know how to use whetstones, however, it will not be the easiest to use. I am a beginner and after a couple hours of practice, I was able to place a nice edge on some kitchen knives. It is quite messy when it comes to the red, 1000 grit, side(don't wipe off the stone). It leaves a watery clay like substance that can get everywhere. I would not recommend working on a surface you don't want stains on because the 6000 grit side will shave tiny particles of the metal off and possibly stain your working station and hands(also don't wipe the metal particles off the stone. It's a beginner's mistake). Clean up is pretty easy. All I do is use enough water to rub off the particles off the stone. I just use my fingers to slightly brush off the particles off the stones. I don't want to break up the stones by using coarse sponges or paper towels (do not use paper towels to clean the stones at all. It will leave tiny pieces of paper towel that will hinder your ability to make smooth strokes across the stones. It makes the stone bumpy). Then I just leave em out to air dry. Pretty simple. Using whetstones are an artform and not just something you can dive into with ease. There are a lot of things to understand and implement into sharpening knives using whetstones. The angle of the blade as you sharpen, the path of the blade as it rides the surface of the stone, the pressure you apply to the blade, and the amount of strokes back and forth to get the edge that you want. Also, it's a whetstone, so it's important that the stones are kept wet. Soaking the stone in water is an essential part of the process as well as keeping the surface constantly watered and not doing so will result in suboptimal edges. I would not recommend this for someone who wants an general sharpener for daily kitchen use. This will take too much of your time. However, I think it's a great product for people who are getting into whetstones and what it has to offer. The price is great and the stones are nice.
Review: My first sharpening stone, and excellent results! - Like you, after using various knife sharpeners for years and getting suboptimal results, I've decided to forgo the usual sharpening sticks/devices for my kitchen and pocket knives and try actually sharpening them with a stone. After reading countless instructional websites, stone reviews and watching various videos, and contemplating the cost of these stones versus the others available, i bit the bullet and ordered these stones (along with some angle guides since I'm a noob). First, my stones arrived in great shape, surrounded by ridiculous layers of bubble wrap. No problems there. As others have written in their reviews, there are no instructions (or any written in english) shipped with this product. Nothing a quick internet search can't fix. A little annoying, yes, but not enough to be a big issue. As far as sharpening the knives itself, using this stone was easy and immediately gratifying. Due to my floundering first-time knife sharpening skills combined with pretty dull knives, it took a good 40+ minutes for me to get my first kitchen knife to a respectably sharp edge that could slice paper with ease. However, it was insanely rewarding to achieve that edge. It was also very zen just listening to that soothing scraping noise and moving my knife back and forth over and over. As instructed by others, soak the dark brown portion in a little plate of water for a few minutes while you get prepared. The plastic stand holds the stone well, but the whole contraption does slide around the kitchen counter, so I just put the whole thing on a damp towel and it doesn't move. The towel also helps pick up the additional water that I splash on the stone while sharpening. After sharpening, I just rinse the stone under running water and scrub with my fingers to get the metal powder bits off. Don't forget to let it dry out before putting it away. I'm sure there are much more expense and better professional stones out there, but for a beginner looking to get my knives back to a respectable edge for cooking and food preparation purposes, these stones were great. When these stones do get worn, I'll definitely buy a replacement. No regrets here.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you soak one or both sides of the stone?**
A: I can't definitely say that soaking damages the 6000 side, but my 6000 side is starting to disintegrate after less than a dozen uses, and I've been soaking the whole stone (including the 6000) side.

**Q: What holds the stone to the base while sharpening so the stone doesnt move?**
A: Basically the water creates suction with the water in the base and holds the stone. Along with the ridge on the base you wont be losing the stone any time soon. Even if you didn't have the base the friction from the stone on most surfaces will keep it stationary.

**Q: Is this also made to sharpen ceramic knives made from zirconium oxide?**
A: Really, I would use diamond stones - they aren't that expensive and are much harder than zirconium oxide.  A ceramic knife is a knife designed with a ceramic blade typically made from zirconium dioxide (ZrO2; also known as zirconia).  These knife blades are usually produced through the dry-pressing and firing of powdered zirconia using solid-state sintering.  It is 8.5 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, compared to 4.5 for normal steel and 7.5 to 8 for hardened steel and 10 for diamond.   Aluminum oxide grit stones (like this) are 9 on the Mohs scale (not much harder).  Silicon carbide stones are 9-10 and would hold up better.  Diamond is best, but you need a quite fine grit to sharpen the edge to a cutting edge.

**Q: what material is the stone made from?**
A: The stone is man-made and is made mostly of ceramic.
