Description
The Global MinoSharp Combination Whetstone is an excellent way to start your journey on the road to sharpening success. This handy kit includes a MinoSharp combination whetstone, a plastic whetstone holder with non-slip feet which doubles as a storage case and guide rails to help you maintain the optimal sharpening angle. The guide rails are slid onto the back of the knife and come in two sizes to accommodate most knives.
Both sides of the stone are designed for a specific use:
220 Grit: The coarse side of the stone is used when blades are damaged, chipped, or incredibly blunt. This side will quickly remove the damaged or blunt edge.
1000 Grit: The medium side of the stone is used for regular sharpening. This side should be used after the 220 grit side to refine the edge and improve the cutting performance of the knife. After sharpening on this side, you can use another stone with a finer grit (2000 or higher) to create a finer, sharper edge.
Complete instructions for proper use are included, though many more detailed sharpening tutorials can be found online.
Made in Japan.
