Review on Winco SS 1211 Sharpening 12 Inch Medium by Amber Love

Firstly if you have a Vinco near you it's 5 bucks cheaper there (didn't know :( ) this stone has problems! Like many of them! but regardless of my low star the stone is his Value for money!You have to be careful even though this stone sticks!So if you don't know what you are doing or don't learn how to sharpen safely you might come by for this reason!Stay where it is If you suddenly smack in the middle Grabbing the blade in one fell swoop and your fingers slipping off the blade can be very unsafe if you don't know how to hold the knife properly or where to put your fingers on the blade when sharpening!The stone bends to the Shrinkage One side was larger than the other side during production so prepare to flatten the stone once it is delivered The fine grit is also sharper and serrated You can grip the handle f rubbing the spoon up and down these edges will instantly take it no other stone not needed This stone should only be used for reprofiling or beveling (if you can saw your hand without cutting yourself), not for sharpening! Once you have the blade move on to your whetstones :) not a slow wear stone, it wears out fast! So first and foremost not the best stone, the quality of this stone is not very good, but this stone is better than your $50-$100 stones! The more you work with this stone, the smaller your more expensive top stones, making this stone really worth every penny! One side works better when wet and the other, works better when dry! So make sure you do any necessary work on the side of the course before using the thinner side, be it one of two or a large number of knives before soaking! because it takes time to dry this stone again! That's all, have a nice day and God bless
