Wanted to upgrade a cheap store whetstone without buying an advertised and expensive sharpening kit. After a little digging and comparing options, I settled on this one. I don't expect them to be of the highest quality and they aren't - one had a slightly chipped corner, I'm happy with these stones so far. I've had several kitchen knives with varying levels of wear, from one with noticeable serrations on the blade to a pair that I know are very well tempered and can be a problem sharpening. Having sat down to sharpen my knives I am very happy with the stones I received. A little more length could have been good for my larger knives and the rubber base slipped a bit, overall each knife was pretty well sharpened and although my skills were a bit rusty and I couldn't shave sharp blades or cut paper I got much better at blades, when i started I hope that someday I will use these stones more regularly.
