A few sharp answers
From your first stroke to caring for your stones.
01What comes in the sharpening set?
The set includes 400/1000 and 3000/8000 dual-sided whetstones, a bamboo base, rubber holders, an angle guide and a flattening stone.
02Which grit should I start with?
For regular sharpening, start with 1000 grit. Reserve 400 grit for very dull edges or minor damage. Work through the finer grits to refine and polish.
03Do I use water or oil?
Use water, not oil. Soak the whetstone until air bubbles subside and keep its surface wet as you sharpen.
04Is it suitable for beginners?
The included angle guide and non-slip base help you work consistently. Start slowly, use light pressure, and follow your knife maker’s recommended sharpening angle.
05How do I care for the stones?
Rinse after use and allow the stones to air-dry fully before storing. Use the flattening stone when the sharpening surface becomes uneven.
06Can I use it on every knife?
These stones are intended for straight-edged steel blades. Check the knife manufacturer’s advice first; serrated and ceramic blades require different care.
07Where do you ship, and what is the returns policy?
