User questions & answers

Question:	Will the orange cones work well with a 5/8" dia honing rod
Answer:	If the bevel is flat, just adjust iron until the bevel is flat against the stone, using your eyes and a good light. Use pencil or marker on bevel first, make a few passes, and see if the marks are worn evenly. It's not actually critical; for planes, the iron is at about 45 degrees, and anything less than that will work. You could use 20, 25, 30, whatever. But I'd try one of the two for this tool, and one should be closer.
Question:	How do I find the correct angle for my knife
Answer:	I don't have an angle guide and use the black magic marker method for the edge. I get a quick burr and strop it off. If I'm worried I'll check for square. So far I've only used this for hand chisels.
Question:	my knife has a 15 degree should i use the 14 or 16 adapter
Answer:	Plane iron Projection 38 mm = 30 degrees. 50 mm = 25 degrees
Question:	Does this set come with the bands for the blue angle guides
Answer:	The product is manufactured in CHINA.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this stone works for dental instruments such as enamel hatchet instrument
Answer:	I use to smooth the stone after most uses. It works great and is a handy item to have.
Question:	I feel like this is a dumb question, but would this stone be suitable for sharpening chisels and plane irons
Answer:	Many electric sharpeners do a good job. The big problem is they tend to remove much more metal than a good stone. If you have expensive knives, use the stones.
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	Yes it can sharpen both. For curved shears I recommend you detach the shears and work on smaller areas of shears gradually, since its curved it would be difficult to maintain sharpening angle if you attempt to sharpen whole blade in one go.
Question:	I want to give this as a gift. Is the e-book available in print? Thank You
Answer:	China

Affordable and High-quality Knife Sharpening Stone Kit!

1. Our CWINDY sharpening stone set is made of premium quality aluminum oxide which is imported from Japan. We use Japanese production technology, so we export our product back to Japan as well.
2. It is baked at a temperature of 1000+ Celsius in an industrial oven, shaped under 200 TONS of pressure, and then air-dried for high density and long durability.

STEP1:

Soak the sharpening stone in water for 5-10 minutes, then place it on a sturdy flat surface. To make sure the sharpening stone even, use the fix stone to flat the surface if it is necessary.

STEP2:For sharpening left side of knife

Hold the knife handle with your right hand to maintain the proper angle of the blade. Place 2 or 3 fingers of your left hand on the blade close to the cutting edge, then press the edge of the blade to the stone. When you push knife back forward, exert even pressure on the knife. Release the pressure when you move forwards. Make sure the blade touches the surface of the sharpening stone.

Step 3: For sharpening right side of knife

Once you feel the burr or the blade slightly curling over to the opposite side, switch to the right side. Be very cautious when touching any blade against your skin. Go through the same process. Once you finish polishing your blade, then add a couple of nice and simple strokes on both sides of the blade to refine the entire surface.

Step 4:

When looking directly at the blade, you should see a blade line. If you still see a reflection on the edge of the blade, your blade is not completely sharpened. Repeat the steps.

• ENSURE THE SMOOTHEST CUT When it comes to matters of the kitchen, nothing is more frustrating than a knife that doesn’t cut properly. Whether it’s cutting meat and cheese or dicing vegetables and herbs, you want a knife that is sharp enough you don’t need to worry about slippage or poor performance. Cooking should be an enjoyable experience, but when your cutlery doesn’t work, it turns a relaxing activity into an annoyance. The Mikarto stone is a great and affordable solution for dull knives.
• A DUAL FUNCTIONING BLOCK This carefully designed tool is actually two stones in one. When deciding on the perfect wetstone knife sharpener, you want a rock that has a lower-numbered grit for sharpening and a higher-numbered grit for polishing. One side of our stone is #3000 and is designed to sharpen dull blades with accuracy and precision. The other side is #8000 and provides a deluxe polishing effect. Our aluminum sharpening stone ensures optimal performance of your knives.
• MADE OF THE FINEST MATERIALS This durable knife polishing stone is a high-performing, industrial grade product designed for chefs and all of us who think we are chefs. The combination whetstone is double sided, premium quality corundum which is a rock-forming mineral derived from aluminum oxide. While most sharpening sets use bamboo or wood stands, our products comes in a slick, sturdy, aerated box with holes at the bottom so it won’t warp or crack due to moisture.
• OUR UNIVERSAL WHETSTONES ARE NOT JUST FOR KITCHEN KNIVES The Mikarto honing stones are not just ideal for kitchen knives; they can be used for just about anything with a blade. Designed to optimize the fluidity of your cutting device, our manual sharpening stone can be used for carving knives, hunting knives, butterfly knives, pocket knives, army knives, razor blades, scissors, pocket knives, or clippers.

It also comes with an angle guide that steadies your knife for an optimal sharpening technique. Both stones and the guide stand come in a high-quality non-slip plastic box with holes to keep the products safe and dry.

User questions & answers

Question:	what material is the stone made from
Answer:	The stone is man-made and is made mostly of ceramic.
Question:	What holds the stone to the base while sharpening so the stone doesnt move
Answer:	Basically the water creates suction with the water in the base and holds the stone. Along with the ridge on the base you wont be losing the stone any time soon. Even if you didn't have the base the friction from the stone on most surfaces will keep it stationary.
Question:	Is this also made to sharpen ceramic knives made from zirconium oxide
Answer:	Really, I would use diamond stones - they aren't that expensive and are much harder than zirconium oxide. A ceramic knife is a knife designed with a ceramic blade typically made from zirconium dioxide (ZrO2; also known as zirconia). These knife blades are usually produced through the dry-pressing and firing of powdered zirconia using solid-state sintering. It is 8.5 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, compared to 4.5 for normal steel and 7.5 to 8 for hardened steel and 10 for diamond. Aluminum oxide grit stones (like this) are 9 on the Mohs scale (not much harder). Silicon carbide stones are 9-10 and would hold up better. Diamond is best, but you need a quite fine grit to sharpen the edge to a cutting edge.
Question:	Do you soak one or both sides of the stone
Answer:	I can't definitely say that soaking damages the 6000 side, but my 6000 side is starting to disintegrate after less than a dozen uses, and I've been soaking the whole stone (including the 6000) side.

Product description

From the Manufacturer

IB8 Combination India bench oilstones have 2-Grit on opposite sides of each stone, reducing the cost of owning a variety of grit sizes for sharpening. Coarse India at on one side is a medium cutting rate man-made sharpening stone for fine edges. Use to sharpen dull edges quickly. Fine India at is used to provide a fine edge. Use to restore slightly dulled cutting edges and enhance the finish left by medium and coarse crystolonat or and India at stones. Norton India oilstones are manufactured using a proprietary process that impregnates them with a petroleum based product that allows the lubrication used during the sharpening process to stay on the stone's surface. As a result, the metal from the object being sharpened and small pieces of abrasive that break off the stone become suspended in the lubricant. This prevents these materials from imbedding into the sharpening stone's surface, keeping it free cutting and making it easy to keep its surface clean.

User questions & answers

Question:	I am not seeing part number 614636855653 on Norton’s website, so can anyone absolutely confirm the grit
Answer:	If you scroll down the Amazon page to "Technical Details" you'll find a different part number: 61463685565. This is on Norton's web site but Norton doesn't specify anything more than "Coarse/Fine" for grits. However, Sharpening Supplies (sharpeningsupplies.com) provides a chart of Norton grit sizes and, for this part number, the coarse is 150 and the fine is 400.
Question:	n this stone is the black side the coarse side
Answer:	Sorry for the delay... Yes, black (or dark gray) side is the coarser one.
Question:	should you use this stone with new knives straight out of the box or use them awhile and then sharpen
Answer:	It will be good if you need to put a real edge on it--some, such as Antonini often ship near blunt and I'm always having to reprofile Case edges on Tru-Sharp models to get a decent edge. But fine sharpening, I recommend something 400-1000 grit.
Question:	Does this stone come with a wooden box or is there one available for puchase
Answer:	It comes in a decent cardboard box. Thick enough to hold the stone and not fall apart, Not sure if there is a wooden box you can order with it.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the size
Answer:	Thank you for your inquiry. The whetstone size is 183×63×13mm ( White part Grit 6000) ／ 183×63×15mm ( Blue part Grit 1000). Please confirm. Best Regards
Question:	My first stone. Why the blue side marked 1000 feel smoother against my finger than the white 6000 side? I was expecting the reverse
Answer:	If you feel on the side of the stone, both the 1000 and 6000 grit side, you will feel that the 6000 grit side is indeed smoother. However, on the flat top after you have used the stone a few time, the 6000 grit side does sometimes feel a little more rough than the 1000 grit grinding surface. This is properly caused by grinding debris that seem to be easier lodged into the stone on the 6000 grit surface compared to the 1000 grit surface, which makes the 6000 grit surface feel more rough than the 1000 grit surface. You can try to use the flattening stone to clean the surface on the 6000 grit side as well as the 1000 grit side and see if that helps.
Question:	Is going from 1000 to 6000 to big of a leap vs 1000 to
Answer:	Hello. Thank you for your inquiry. As you see, it is just a difference between 3000 & 6000, after #1000 grit sharpening process. If you prefer to finish your knife finer or more glossy better to use 6000. 3000, should be an appropriate level for finishing, a good blade will be created. If you have further question, please contact me at any time. Best Regards
Question:	Are the materials used identical to the stand alone #1000 and #6000 stones
Answer:	Thank you for visiting our store. Yes, you can use 1000 & 6000 separately, one by one. Best Regards

User questions & answers

Question:	Are other degree guides available. ........thank you
Answer:	No, there are no other degree guides available expect the one provided with the product.
Question:	Can this be used to sharpen wood lathe chisels
Answer:	Yes, We recommend using flat blade chisels.
Question:	Can this blade be used to sharpen straight razors
Answer:	Yes sir. Just be careful of the angle of the blade. I am a butcher.and I try to keep a angle of 20 degrees when sharpening my knives.
Question:	Can i use any oil or water instead
Answer:	You have to soak it in water for 20 min prior to use. During the sharpening process, it's important to keep the stone wet by sprinkling water on it. Do this as soon as it starts to get dry. You want a slurry of water on the stone at all times. The slurry consists of water and some of the metal dust generated while sharpening. Do not wipe this off during the process because that is what helps hone the knife. Do not use oil on this stone because you will ruin it. Hope this helps!

Sharp Pebble 1000/6000 Dual Grit Sharpening Stone with Angle Guide

Made from aluminium oxide(corundum) material, provides a perfect two side grit combination to sharpen you’re knives and tools in a short time. Two stones for cost of one.

1000 Grit: Your go-to sharpening stone. If your knives have lost their edge and need a good sharpen, then this is the grit you should start with.

6000 Grit: Acts as a bridge between sharpening and superfine finishing. Used for super-fine finishing and to refine your knife edge.

Sharp Knife Works Better

Save hundreds of dollars in the purchase of new knives by revitalizing your existing ones. Whether you are a professional or occasional chef, an active outdoor/camping person this is one of the must-have tool. A sharp blade is predictable. When it strikes or is drawn across the food’s surface, it won’t slip. With a dull knife, it’s only a matter of time until you badly cut yourself.

A dull knife slows you down, while a sharp knife makes prep easier and more enjoyable.

Razor Sharp Results

Keep your everyday kitchen knives extremely sharp with this 1000/6000 grit Sharp Pebble Dual Grit Water-stone. Sharp knives need less brute force to cut than dull knives.

Less brute force means less damage to the food, which you can easily see by looking closely at the cut. Delicate ingredients, like herbs, will look fresher for longer if you slice through them cleanly, whereas a dull knife will crush more of the cells surrounding the cut, which ultimately accelerates wilting and discoloration.
