The Work Sharp Whetstone is a double-sided ceramic sharpener made from aluminum oxide, featuring high hardness and making it suitable for sharpening almost any steel. Its generous size makes it easy to work with knives of various dimensions. The stone requires soaking in water before use until air bubbles cease to rise.
It features two grits: 1000 for sharpening and preliminary polishing, and 6000 for mirror polishing and imparting the final edge, making it ideal for Japanese kitchen knives and precision tools. The included solid polymer base provides stability, a water reservoir for continuous hydration and easy cleaning of abraded material, and integrated removable magnetic angle guides (15° and 17°) for maintaining a consistent sharpening angle.
