LOVE. I have bought 2 knives and this whetstone from here and it has been a game changer.
My only reason for 3 stars is that I haven't really had time to(or the skill) to master sharpening my good knives.
Let's be honest, I understand that it takes quite a while to become a good knife sharpener.
I think I am getting the hang of it and are practicing on some average old kitchen knives. Actually, a few are starting to look good again, not quite 'paper cutting' but much better than the blunt old 'steel' jobs.
But, Im getting there. I won't damage my good knives until I have decided that I'm ready. I hope this won't take too long as I'm getting better.
Whilst I feel a tad unfair in giving 3 stars I would give it 4-5 for excellent packaging and the product itself. It's a lovely stone and looks great next to my knife board on the kitchen bench.
I am hoping to soon give it 5 stars.
regards
Adrian.
Great Whetstone Set — Super Easy to Use!
I picked up this 1000/6000 blue whetstone with the bamboo base, and honestly, I’m really happy with it. The 1000 side brings dull knives back to life quickly, and the 6000 side gives them that smooth, polished finish that makes cutting feel effortless again.
The bamboo base is a nice touch — it keeps everything steady while sharpening, so I never feel like the stone is slipping around. Plus, it just looks good on the counter.
I’m not a sharpening expert at all, but this set made the whole process super simple and pretty satisfying. If you want a reliable, easy-to-use whetstone to keep your knives in great shape, this one’s a solid choice!
