Review on πŸ”ͺ SE SS74 22SC Sharpening Silicone Carbide: Efficient Tool for Precision Blade Sharpening by George Utley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Suitable for various tools

I use a regular steel rod to sharpen knives, I'm not a cook but I cook a lot. This grain is similar, the difference is in the way it is used; With the ore you have a protection so you don't cut your hand by moving the knife up and down. Stones achieve the same effect and maybe even better because they come in different grits. Keep in mind that this is not a miracle sharpener. If you don't know how to do it with a steel bar, you won't know how to do it effectively with rocks. The stone requires a different method of use as you don't have a guard to protect your hand and you have to angle the knife differently. I recommend you study one or the other. Being used to the steel rod, I had to practice to get the right angle with the stone. You'll end up with a favorite knife sharpening tool. Five starts out because the stones come in different grits, and this comes in handy when you have items like a mini bone cutting axe.
