The Edgemaster Professional Combination Whetstone has a 1000 grit side for sharpening and a 3000 grit side for refining the edge. It is a simple way to bring dull kitchen knives back to a sharp, clean edge in-house instead of sending them away.
The ceramic water stone measures 18.5 x 6 x 3.25 cm and sits on a non-slip base so it stays put on the bench. Soak it for about 5 minutes, sharpen on the 1000 side, then polish on the 3000 side for a keen finish.

How do I use a water stone?
Soak the stone in water for about 5 minutes until bubbles stop, sit it on its non-slip base, and sharpen at a steady 15 to 30 degree angle. Start on the coarser side and finish on the finer side, keeping the surface wet as you go.
Can I sharpen serrated knives or scissors on it?
No. It suits straight-edge knives only. Serrated knives and scissors need a different sharpener.
How do I clean the stone?
Rinse it under running water after use and let it air dry fully before putting it away. Do not put it in the dishwasher.
Which side do I use first?
Start on the 1000 grit side to set the edge, then move to the 3000 grit side to refine and polish it. For a knife that only needs a touch-up, the 3000 side alone may be enough.
How often should I use a whetstone?
Most busy kitchens sharpen every few weeks and hone on a steel daily in between. Sharpen when honing no longer brings the edge back.
