Review on πŸ”ͺ KEENBEST Whetstone Sharpener: Precise Sharpening for Excellent Edge Retention by Mood Neboet

Revainrating 1 out of 5

My experience seems extraordinary; didn't work for me.

I followed the instructions carefully including water bath etc. The "angle positioner" shown in your photo has not been included or excluded from the text as is normally the case if applicable. Spent 20 minutes with a pair of 8 inch kitchen knives, alternating between using both sides. (From 400, 15 degrees, etc.) After all, no knife would cut a tomato - wouldn't break the skin. Then I tried the small 62 x 4mm honing rod that came with my Swiss Army Knife. It fits perfectly in a leather case and is always there when you need it. A total of 12 strokes made the edges razor-sharp in less than ten seconds. The same applies to Fiskar's scissors. I tried to insert a photo but the process attempt failed so I don't know if it worked. I just noticed that the small "Swiss" sharpener is actually marked "Sheffield" and the photo shows "England". It's at least 40 years old.
