This whetstone holder works great. I love the easy adjustment and the extra length. I love how the screws are designed to adjust along the screw rods so they don't get in the way while shopping, just like all my other stone holders - no fancy or weird wing nuts to get in the way. Because of its length, I use it as a sink bridge and stone holder; Eliminate the need for a dedicated drain bridge. I had my doubts that it would be strong enough to be used as a sink bridge and stone holder, but it does the job pretty well. It doesn't wobble or move while sharpening and keeps my stone stable and secure. Because it's stainless steel, it will last a lifetime.
