Review on 🔪 Gourmet Tool Whetstone Knife Sharpener: 1000/6000 Waterstone Grit with Flattening Stone and Angle Guide - Ultimate Wet Stone Kitchen Knife Sharpening Solution by Tara Rodriguez

This is great. Got this after our electric sharpener finally died and it makes our knives so much sharper. My wife accidentally removed the stone without drying it and it doesn't seem to wear any worse. I've used it probably 20-30 times at this point and really don't see the stone wearing much. I think I will use it in 10 years. The grip is really good and prevents it from slipping around the counter. I also like the instructions as they help you get a feel for the right angle at which to hold the knife. After a few sharpenings, I no longer needed guidance because I had enough intuition to choose the angle. I was a total newbie to hand sharpening when I got this but after watching a few YouTube videos and a few practice sessions with a cheap knife. I could get my knives sharp enough to slice through a tomato and shave the hair off my arm without applying pressure. I think some people use leather strops for extra sharpening, but mine are sharp enough that I have to cook all the time. It seems like 90% of people have very dull knives.
