Good after a good finish,,,

How this stone was received was terrible. There were a lot of extra diamond bits on the surface so it just gouged out the edge of the first knife I tried.

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
Cons
  • No instructions

Pros
  • Sharpening stones
Cons
  • Expensive

Pros
  • Hand Tool
Cons
  • Slightly Torn
