Review on ๐Ÿ”ช Sharpening Stone Sharpener by Whetstone Cutlery - 20 10960 by Justin Vasquez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good Quality: Hand Tools

Great price for a sharpener. Both sides are intact with no chips or cracks. To use this, drop it in a bucket of water for about 16 hours. Then, very gently, make 100 passes on each side, starting with a 400 grit. Once you've found the angle of the blade, begin rocking your body backwards to move the blade forward. not your hands. It takes about 400 passes in total to find the right blade angle. Remember to pour water on the stone from time to time to keep it clean. The end result looks amazing and the blade will be very sharp. Sharpening things like swords and longer knives isn't for beginners, and I recommend that if you want to try and learn it, you first use a sword or a knife from a dustbin, because you can bet you'll master the Mess up first couple until you get comfortable. There are several instructional videos on YouTube.

Pros
  • Whetstones
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
