Review on 🔪 Enhance Your Blades with the Sharp Pebble Premium Sharpening Whetstone by Robbie Guinn

I really appreciate that the kit comes with a rubber base! I'm opening my own carpentry shop after graduating from woodworking school and it's important to have whetstones as a first step. These stones are not of the highest quality but are of great value - reasonably high quality at a good price. In addition to this 3000/8000 brick, I have a 250/1000 brick from Lee Valley. I've used it to sharpen all the smooth knives in the house and will soon be moving on to chisels and plane blades after sharpening them on a bench grinder. Sharp tools make a big difference! Not sure what the purpose of the extra white stone is - it says to smooth, but smoothing the stones with something so small isn't the best idea in my opinion. I have a separate large surface area diamond wheel that I use for leveling stones. However, it can come in handy for sharpening awkward edges like scissors and secateurs! I would recommend that you only purchase this product if you have additional lower grit stones. 3000 and 8000 are really for sharpening and polishing and it will take a LONG time to sharpen a kitchen knife with just this grit combination. However, once you've sharpened your knives, regular sharpening will help keep your blade sharp. The stone itself is marked 3000 in green and 8000 in white. Hope this is all helpful!
