Good cheap stone. comes unpackaged.

Pros: Gets the job done. Cheap. The edge of my kitchen knife had broken off after rust spots appeared on it. The stone removed the chips and restored the shape of the edge quite well. Cons: It doesn't come flattened, so you'll need a straightening stone before first use. There is no grit number printed on it. Gray is coarse, brown is thin. A NOTICE. If this is your first stone, note that the "fine" finish is 240 grit, which means it's not sharp enough for a kitchen knife, but sharp enough for a

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Not as thick as other pickaxes

Decent stone, needs leveling and oiling.

Needed a good grind and a big gulp of oil. If you find your polishing oil disappearing on a faux stone like this, that's because it wasn't soaked at the factory - you should be soaking it. I use mineral oil for soaking and mineral oil diluted with mineral spirits (50/50) for honing oil. Then make a box or holder for it, because it lubricates everything it touches. Keep it covered, because an oil-soaked stone is a magnet for shop dirt that will clog the stone.

Pros
  • whetstones
Cons
  • fragile

Good stone and cheap :)

. over the years there have been many. After retiring from the fishing and cleaning trades, I picked up a good pair of blades. Stainless steel blades. The smoothness on the gray side is what I was looking for and the brown side is a beautiful melody. No one takes one of my knives without warning to cut themselves off and be careful. I have a stainless steel that looks like a 9 inch blade. I shelled a 176lb yellowfin tuna in minutes. Anyone who knows fish can tell you how thick the skin around…

Pros
  • Hand and power tools
Cons
  • Later I will add a good stone to
