I've got a large knife collection. It was time to upgrade my sharpening tools. In spite of all the new fancy gadgets available, this basic kit did the job.

Not unlike a few people I know, I have a set of kitchen knives that cost a little bit more money than most people would spend on a set of kitchen knives. My personal choice is the henkel's professional S series. Excellent knives, but as with any kitchen knife, they do occasionally need to be sharpened. I've never typically done this myself... I always either stop by a knife shop somewhere or sometimes kitchen supply places will sharpen your knives, or the last time I had it done I found a guy online and I mailed a couple of them out to him and he sent them right back and they were really sharp again just like brand new. But that does cost money every time so honestly I watched a couple of videos on YouTube about how to sharpen knives. Those of you that are reading this that know how to sharpen knives maybe thinking well it's not that hard, and you're right it isn't but if you've never done it before you don't know. So for anybody that's reading this has never done it before, seriously it's not that hard. So to that end, I bought these sharpening stones. They came with really good instructions plus the YouTube video that I watched, I grabbed my favorite chef's knife and honestly I figured if I screwed it up I could still send it out and get it fixed but about 6 minutes later I had my knife as sharp as it was the day I bought it. Kind of like a brand new razor blade with a big handle on it. With this new confidence I sharpened the rest of my set. I haven't tried it yet on the scissors however when they need sharpening I'm sure this will do the trick. For the money I could have paid to have my entire set sharpened professionally, I bought this and had money left over. 100% well worth the bridge just like and like I said if you're not really sure how to sharpen a knife, if you haven't done it before, don't be scared of the process. I had never done it myself and with the right tools, you're all set.

This is a great set of stones. I just wish I had the patience to sit long enough to get my kitchen knives razor sharp. The range of grits is great for sharpening. The only thing I wish kits like this had was a better angle guide for us novices. I'd be more encouraged to strive for perfection if I knew the angle I'm using is correct.

I bought this knife sharpening set for my husband, and I’m so glad I did! All the knives in our kitchen are now perfectly sharp, which makes meal prep so much easier. He really likes how simple it is to use, and the different grit options make it versatile for any blade. Whether it's our chef’s knife or smaller paring knives, they all come out razor-sharp. The instructions are clear, and the quality feels premium. If you’re looking for a reliable whetstone that gives great results, this set is great!

In a Nutshell- We had a collection of dull knives- First time using a whetstone- All items in this kit were useful to sharpen my knives- Get a honing rod to finish it- The angle aid will scratch your knives.What you need to know- It took 3 tries to learn how to use the whetstone. First 2, my test knife was worse than when I first started. If it’s not getting sharper, it may be you.- The angle aid is useful, but it’s a fixed angle and some knives require sharpening at a different angle . Also, it will scratch your knives- I watched like 4 different YouTube videos on sharpening using a whetstone. Best one was from some Cooks Edge. I’m not promoting, but I feel he was the only the explained all the whole “getting the burr” thing the best.- I was able to sharpen with great success 7/8 different knives with the stones. I used the 8000 grit only on my Japanese shun knife. I didn’t go higher than 3000 on the rest.- The 1 knife (1st from left) that I cannot consider a success is sharper, but it was so hard to get the burr and even after I did it, it definitely doesn’t compare to the rest. I think it’s the knife, not me lol.- Last, if it’s your first time, like me, it will take you about 45-60 minutes to sharpen one, call it not being sure if I have a burr, but after that I was able to do my other knives in 20 min.

Used to sharpen hatchet so far and worked extremely well! Was sharpened better than when I first received the hatchet.So many stone grits and honing tools for the money. Supper easy to use and the base is extremely stable when you put it on a hard, smooth surface like a table. Doesn’t slide even with the wetness of the stone.

I bought these out of my never-ending search to find a stone or sharpener that will actually give a hair-shave edge to these stainless pocket knives they make acres of from all these knife makers like Smoky Mountain, etc, but I haven't been able to get these stones, or any other sharpener to give them that razor edge they have out of the factory. I have followed all instructions, used water on them and so on. I think maybe the length of time and patience (20-30 minutes?) I've read that it takes to get that sort of edge back is just not worth the effort for how fast they lose it. But for a good sharp regular-task sort of edge these are good stones, definitely. They will (should) satisfy any knife geek's jones for sharpening and and put a finer edge for sure than your average tungsten "scraper" as I call them.

Been doing my own frets since I was a kid. 1976 Strat needed another go over, last one maybe ten years ago. These stones are perfect for the job, not costly. youll need a 10,000 40,000 polish stone and 0000 steel wool as well. Good luck.
