Review on Suehiro CERAX Soaking Whetstone Sharpening by Logan Tripp

I've seen great reviews of this stone. I used it according to the instructions. Twice. The result wasn't just bad, it was literally FOG. I watched videos on YouTube, followed every advice, took every opportunity. I have been using Chef's Choice Diamond Hone 478 for several years. I bought this stone because I needed something better. After not using this stone twice, I ran a $7 Chef's Choice knife and it was INSTANTLY sharper. The cheap $6.99 Chef's Choice 478 isn't great, but the $41 wet stone CERAX 1000 is a lot worse. You could spend 20 minutes with a knife on that rock and still not cut your finger. And yes, I used to use a wet stone to sharpen a sharp blade. I'm sorry it's not working
