Knife Sharpening Stone Kit - 1000/6000 Grit Japanese Whetstone Sharpener Set with Non-Slip Rubber Base Angle Guide Flattening Stone for Kitchen Knives Chisel Axe Scissors

Great kit has everything you need to sharpen and hone your knife

Using the better pull through sharpeners or a steel keeps knives in a decent condition but every so often they do need to go back to a basic sharpening to restore that surgical edge. My father used to use an oil stone for plane blades and chisels, and I still have it, although it is a bit messy for knives. Oilstones are much harder and slower working but do give a fine, polished edge. This kit uses the much cleaner whetstones using water as the lubricant. It comes with a guide for chisels and the like, which I don’t need as I practice woodturning so have jigs and a grindstone which does the job, although grindstones are not as convenient to use for knives. The kit includes a guide to set the angle right for knives and two whetstones with a different grit rating on each face to give 400 (coarse), 1,000, 3,000 and 8,000 (very fine) grit compound stones. This gives you the range of sharpening and polishing stones to cover a wide range of blade types from scissors and shears to fine boning knives. With whetstones softer than oilstones they do wear out of true faster so a harder flattening stone is included to restore a perfectly level surface. The stones are placed in a bamboo frame with a non-slip base to give a fair degree of stability in use. Also included is a leather strop, another thing my father had and used back in the days when razor blades were resharpened. The strop comes with polishing compound. Polishing is not absolutely necessary but does give a professional looking finish to the job. The kit also includes a pair of cut resistant gloves which might be a safety feature but make holding knives for sharpening a bit cumbersome, so it is easier to work without them. I have not had the kit long enough to talk about durability, but it seems well made and does a fine job of sharpening and polishing. I went through our entire kitchen knife collection, some reasonably sharp, some less so, and brought each knife back to frightening sharpness, able to cut through a sheet of A4 and thinly slice tomatoes without effort. It does take longer than sharpening with a steel or pull though knife sharpener, quite a few minutes to get a fine edge, but it is far superior to other methods of sharpening and only needs doing every so often, depending upon usage, using a steel before each use in between sharpening sessions to keep the edge in decent condition. That being said, it is quite therapeutic, a slow-paced process with a satisfying result. My knives were not in a terrible condition, just not as sharp as they were when they were bought, the sort of bluntness that comes over time shown by, for example, force needed to penetrate tomato skins for slicing, or cuts needing more force to be clean. This kit has brought them back to light touch razor sharpness. There are other, similar kits around, which probably will manage the same results, but this was the one I bought based on price and contents and I am happy with product and the results.

Follow the instructions and it works very well for knives, I also tried to sharpen some chisels, whilst it worked but not as well and it did effect the 'flatness' of the stone. One big niggle is when you put it into the rubber holder as instructed, it becomes too big to fit the bamboo base it comes with they say to use. I personally put a microfiber cloth down and place the rubber older and stone on that and it doesn't move on the worktop. Very stable and great for knives but I am now looking for something else for my chisels.

bought this kit for my japanese knives good quality sharpening stones and accessories just a little practice you can bring your knives back to razor sharpness would recommend if you looking for something similiar.

Excellent set of knives, now like new. 👍👌👍

Good sharpening stone

The sharpener met my expectations. I highly recommend it.

Seems decent so far. Just have to make sure you are using it properly, soaking in water and topping up when using the sharpening stone for longer periods.

Ağzı kırık bile olsa bıçaklarınızı tekrar jilet gibi keskin hale getirmek için bu taşlar ve iyi bir masat yeterlidir. Biraz pratik yaptıktan sonra her defasında daha kısa sürede, daha iyi kesici ağızlar ortaya çıkartabilirsiniz. Kullanma kılavuzunda yazdığı gibi, YouTube'tan izleyip pratik yaparak harika işler çıkartabilirsiniz. Taşlar gayet yeterli ve güzel. Bileme kılavuzunu bileme sırasında devamlı olarak kullanmak pek pratik değil. Kılavuz ile açıyı anlayıp o açıyı koruyarak bilemeye devam etmek daha pratik bir yöntem. Bambu taban ve silikon kalıplar sayesinde taşlar oldukça sağlam bir şekilde tezgaha sabitleniyor. Profesyonel mutfaktaki tüm satırlar ve bıçakları (aşağı yukarı 30 kadar bıçak. Zwilling, Global gibi sert bıçaklar ile 2 kemik satırı, 2 soğan satırı, geri kalanlar Pirge, Sürbisa gibi nispeten yumuşak bıçaklar ) biledikten sonra taşlardaki tüketim aşağı yukarı 3-5mm oldu. Düzeltme taşıyla düzeltilebilir ancak şu an için problem teşkil etmiyor. Daha önce kullandığım pahalı taşlara nispeten bu üründen çok memnun kaldım. Elmas masat ve/veya güzel bir honlama masatınız da varsa bıçak bileyici arkadaşınıza çay içmeye uğrarsanız :)

Excellent value for money!

bon matériel parfait pour l'affûtage

Ein ausgezeichnetes, hochwertiges Produkt. Ich bin mit dem Schleifresultat sehr zufrieden. Endlich einmal ein Schleifgerät das funktioniert und das Messer nicht kaputt macht, wie all die Durchzieh-Geräte. Auf Youtube gibt es gute Anleitungen, wie man ein Messer mit dem Schleifstein richtig schleift. PS: Der Winkelhalter ist Gold wert.
