HOW TO USE:
1. Soak the waterstone in water for around 10 minutes. Fit in its silicone base on a firm surface. In use, it's normal for a powdery slurry to appear. Don't wash this away as it is a honing/polishing compound. If it dries, sprinkle on a bit more water.
2. If the knife's blunt use the #400 grit side first to achieve a good edge. Hold at around a 20 degree angle (the back of the blade should come halfway up your thumb when it is resting on the stone). Move back and forth smoothly until you achieve the desired result both sides – around 15 mins. This side is only used occasionally depending on frequency of use.
3. Use the #1000 grit side to finish with slightly less pressure. Keep polishing until you achieve a smooth finish. Frequent use will maintain a sharp edge.
4. Use the whole whetstone surface. Constant use of the same area will cause dips so turn the stone around frequently and go to the edges
5. After sharpening, rinse and leave until fully dry.
6. Place in a safe, dry place, out of the reach of children. Avoid dropping.
DID YOU KNOW? Is it whet stone, whetstone, wetstone or wet stone? It is actually whetstone. The word "whet" means to sharpen. So you can have whetstones that use oil or water. But feel free to call it what you wish!
Can it be used with oil? Yes most people use it with water which is of course almost free, clean and environmentally friendly. However, you could use oil as the lubricant, though once oil is used you can't go back to water as the oil will not allow the water to sink in and do its job.
