Not a bad stone and works well. I'm not a professional sharpener, but I was able to sharpen an old dull knife well. An angle guide is not required and the angle between the knives is different anyway. The bamboo base is fine except the rubber base set on the stone does not match the base (just the hole needs to be 1/8 inch longer). Not a deal breaker and a good price and I would recommend the stone. There are no instructions. If you are new to hand sharpening, there are many videos online to walk you through proper methods and stone preparation.
