Key pointers on how to use it:
1. Soak the whetstone into cold sink water for 15 minutes prior to sharpening.
2. To protect your blade by putting a piece of tape on the top and slide the angle guide over. The guide provided is better used on 8-inch chef knives to give you the most common sharpening angle. While most knives are sharpened between 15 and 20 degrees, with practice and time you can use what works the best for your knife and steel.
3. Use the #1000 grit side of the stone to begin the sharpening process and make back and forth movements across the entire blade by keeping the stone wet. Continue the movement until you can feel a burr form with your fingers (micro reversed edge). It's recommended you count your strokes and apply between 1 and 2 pounds of pressure.
4. Move to the other side of the blade and count approximately the same number of strokes to create an even edge.
Some knives might take more effort than others which will vary based on the knife condition and steel type. To test the sharpness of your knife, try cutting a piece of newspaper or your favorite ingredient. If your knife is not sharp enough, repeat step #3 and #4.
5. (Optional) Use the #6000 grit side of the stone with a light pressure and equally polish the blade with the same movements and method as you did with the #1000 stone.
Once you have a satisfactory shiny polished edge, test on newspaper again until you are happy with the cutting feel.
*Don't get intimidated by sharpening on whetstones. While it does require some practice, this method will give you the most optional results on all types of knives.
