KIPTOP Whetstone Knife Sharpening Stone 2 Side Grit 1000/8000 Waterstone | Best Premium Whetstone Sharpener | Nonslip Bamboo Base & Angle Guide for Kitchen, Woodwork, Outdoors

The KIPTOP Whetstone arrived well packaged and no damage.The whetstone comes in a very solid bamboo holder with anti slip rubber base. The stone also has rubber covers to protect the ends and edges.I read the instructions for use and followed them exactly - this was my first time using a whetstone.Once the stone had been soaked I started on one of my favorite knifes, a 4" paring knife.I used the 1000# first and then the 8000#. After spending about 30 minutes in total the blade was like new again.SInce then I have done my other knives too like my chefs knife in the photo.For a novice like me this was an easy process to follow and I know it will get better as my skills improve.If you've ever wondered if you could do this, my advice is go for it. Give your tired old knives a new lease of life !

I am delighted with this product! I have sharpened all my knives at home, and it worked fantastic. It is very simple to use and you can check the difference after sharpening even old knives. I am very happy with the product. The product comes with a wooden base that makes it really easy and prevents slipping.Great value for money!!

Used for the 1st time yesterday. Although there are no instructions included with the item it was simple to find generic instructions on U-Tube. The whetstone performed extremely well on my Global knives; which previously I only sharpened with a conventional “steel”. The difference was remarkable; returning them to an unbelievable level of sharpness. The angle aligned was helpful but in time I will possibly not need to use it. Overall a well designed product which so far has performed well. Value for money when compared with the cost of a genuine “Global” alternative.

the stand is very good as it raises the stone higher which gives better control, there is a rubber grip that attaches to the stone which stops any unnecessary wobbling. the only thing I would change is the grip on the bottom of the wooden stand, I used on a granite surface and it needed a tea towel underneath as the surface was a bit wet therefore causes some slipping. despite this I consider a good value for money and a strong upgrade from my old whetstone. P.S I am using this to sharpen top of the line global knives.

I have used it to sharpen my blunt knives. It was easy to use and did work. It will be good to include sharpening instructions for amateurs, myself, to follow. I looked it up from you tube got the techniques in how to use Whetstones.My knives all got quite sharp but I need to improve on my sharpening techniques. The Whetstone works much better than those grey colour sharpening stone.

First sharpening stone that I have purchased. The 1000 grit is a bit slow for very blunt knives, but give it a bit of time. The 7000 grit is very good for finishing after you have got an edge. It takes a bit of practice to get used to but don't let that put you off. It is much better than the other sharpening guides you get. The delivery was also very prompt so that was also nice.

Very happy with my purchase its incredibly easy to use well worth the money and an invaluable piece of kit to keep in kitchen home saves having to buy new knives especially if they ur best food prep ones which can get expensiveThe stones are suitably marked on one side to indicate which side is for sharpening and for polishingBrown orange side 1000grit sharpeningWhite side 8000 grit for polishingAfter just a few mins with this I was honestly surprised and impressed with results I'm not a professional or highly experienced whetstone user.So for my first attempt at sharpening my santoku knife it turned out really wellHere's a free heads up when using the angle guide that came with the whetstone I'd use a protective tape to protect the surface of knife as I did cause some surface damage to my knife 😢 lesson learned my fault and not fault of my purchaseThe whetstone is held comfortably by a rubber cushion which gives great support along length and width of stone especially whilst in use so it cushions movement so ur stone doesn't judder about they also added a second rubber cover seal for when u store ur whetstone to help protect from possible damage or if its in transitThe bamboo base holder is beautifully designed and made and resists water nicely and has an anti slip rubber base on bottom I've had no problems using itThe stone and base appear to be of high quality and would happily recommend this to friends family and very speedy delivery seller gets 2 thumbs up from me 👍👍
