ZWILLING J.A. Henckels 6-pc Glass Water Stone Sharpening Set, 16", Brown

Super good. Highly recommended.

I do not let anyone else sharpen my knives anymore. These stones not only put a beautiful edge on a knife, but I actually look forward to breaking them out and going through the process of really handling my kitchen knives, getting to know where that sweet spot is, and bringing back that razor sharp edge, just me and my knives. It has become almost ritualistic for me. And it's no surprise given that these were a collaboration with Bob Kramer. Though I admittedly do not own a Kramer chef's knife 😬. The price may be a shock to some, but I assure you it is worth it to get them and, if you don't know already, learn how to take care of your own blades.

Quality product and excellent customer service. This kit does an excellent sharpening job on even very hard Japanese knives. When I had a small issue Zwilling Customer Service was responsive and helpful.

I own 3 Bob Kramer knives and they are the best. My favorite is the Damascus 10 inch kitchen knife. they all stayed sharp for a very long time with an occasional stroke on the honing stick. I took it to sur la table to be sharpened and they did an "ok" job but not back to the sharpness of the knife when it was new.I watch the video's on line with Bob Kramer using these stones and purchased it. First time i tried it, I was not applying enough pressure and did not follow his procedure to begin with multiple strokes (4-5) at a time to develop the wire edge. You have to push harder than you might think. So I didn't achieve the razor edge as they were when new.The next time, I applied more pressure and used 5-7 strokes per side before flipping and could feel the wire edge.I now have the knives razor sharp as they were when new and can shave the hair off my arm with any part of the blade.Suggest experimenting with a cheaper knife so that you can try things without worrying youll damage it.I highly recommend these although they are indeed pricey, you never get more than you pay for. If razor sharp and easy to use with just a little practice is what you want, this product delivers.

I have used this on all my knives and they are super freaking Sharp now. I watched Kramer's YouTube video and bam! I feel like I'm a pro using this to Sharpen everything! I returned all the cheapo stones and only use this now. I Bought the strop too and wow! Awesome! Easy to use just watch a video!
