User questions & answers

Question:	What angle is the angle guide
Answer:	My opinion is that the Lansky system is perfect for the knife you're looking at. The SRK has a 6" blade with a 3/16" backbone. I'm thinking this is probably the sweet spot for the system. The only knife I have actually had a problem with is my little red Victorinox Swiss Army Classic. The blade on this knife is so thin and shiny slick the clamp jaws have trouble holding it tightly and the blade height (back to edge) is so short that even the 25 degree angle slot will make the stone cut into the tip of the clamp. All that means is that larger blades seem to work better than smaller ones. One piece of advice: Don't be a momentary moron like me and read all the instructions so you will see where they tell you to basically set the stone face on a table with the rod so both align properly. Instructions are sometimes actually good!Almost forgot! Lansky has some online instructions regarding blade lengths: http://lansky.com/index.php/products/dlx-5-stone-system/#3
Question:	What is the glove made of?metal wire
Answer:	This set has 5 different stones. The extra course stone is LS70, course stone is LS120, medium stone is LS280, fine stone is LS600, ultra fine is LS1000. Hope this helps!
Question:	How much does it weigh
Answer:	I own this system, skip it. I suspect most guys who really appreciate quality knives also want a good sharpening tool. As a collector of folding pocket knives and kitchen knives, about 35 of each, I have many of the most popular sharpening systems. Sharpeners have one thing in common they take quite a bit of time to use, skill no matter what anyone says, and pretty dramatic differences in success no matter how much you practice. From watching many videos of pro knife makers sharpening theirs the most common technique involves a fast rotating belt or stone. Most Japanese quality knife makes use BIG spinning stones, i.e. 5" x 48"+ diameter! Pro sharpening services also use large belt type, i.e. 2-4" wide x several feet long spinning fast. Work Sharp WSKTS Knife and Tool Sharpener makes a $70 smaller version of the belt type. It has built in guides is about 3/4"wide x 6" and spins much slower than the big ones BUT it is forgiving because it removes material much slower while many times faster than any of the hand operated types. Touching up kitchen knives takes a few minutes start to finish with one of several belt "grits". A belt lasts through 100+ sharpens. It is so fast and so good I NEVER use any of my others anymore. There is a fancier version for about $125 designed by Ken Onion a justifiably famous knife designer. If you anal retentive and small minded fanatic like I was keep using your slow, SLOW hand sharpeners noting with pride how sharp your blades are. After a couple sessions with the Work Sharp WSKTS Knife and Tool Sharpener you'll be born again with edges better than ever but you must have electricity in you home, LOL Happy Trails
Question:	What is the size of the stone
Answer:	yes. I have sharpened as many as 100 knives a day using hand - not powered equipment. and I do not freehand sharpen. the precise knife edge of the Lansky or the Edge Pro sharpeners will blow away any free hand edge. you can sharpen up to a 10 inch knife with the lansky without moving the clamp. I can tell you as a professional the Lansky is the best of the clamp sharpeners. there are however three errors in the lansky directions. 1. always sharpen dry. NEVER use oil on sharpening stones. the edge will be sharper and the edge will last longer if you sharpen dry. America is the only nation on earth that pushes oil sharpening. 2. man made stones are better than diamond stones. man made stones have the same cutting power from top to bottom. diamond grit plates do not maintain their cutting power. 3. I flatten and clean the Lansky stones after every 5 knives. flatten the stones on sand rubbed on a patio block or thick glass. flat and clean they will sharpen until the stone wears down to the plastic holder!

User questions & answers

Question:	I just got these today. Why do the higher grit stones feel noticeably more abrasive? Could they be mis-marked or is this normal
Answer:	Possibly but normally you would need a flat surface to aim at 90 degrees such as you would have measuring a wall to wall in a room. You could estimate tree height by estimating the height horizontally from the tree and the measure distance from the tree, but it would not be precise.
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	I would think you can use either in or outside to measure. I was going to use it outside eventually when this snow goes away.
Question:	Can this blade be used to sharpen straight razors and wood lathe chisels
Answer:	Bottom right Black button. Hold for 2 seconds and it changes to your desire application
Question:	What are the dimensions of the actual stone
Answer:	iOS and Android. Not windows.

Product description

Black Surgical Arkansas (Ultra Fine): This is the hardest of the Arkansas stones and was traditionally used to sharpen dental tools and scalpels, hence the name “Surgical.” The Black Arkansas will hone a polished, very sharp razor sharp edge on knives and tools. Black Arkansas stones are used by the most discerning chefs, sportsman and woodworkers. Color can vary from dark grey, to blue/black to black. Genuine Arkansas stones are 100% quarried in the Ouachita Mountains of central Arkansas. They are highly sought after worldwide for their superior ability to sharpen knives and woodworking tools, as well as to put surgical quality edges on a wide variety of instruments Arkansas stones produce these fine edges s with less wear that man-made stones. Arkansas stones are classified as Novaculite, which is extremely hard and fine grained rock containing almost pure silica. These stones are classified in 4 grades and progress from Soft to Hard to Translucent and finally to Black. Each grade is based on the specify gravity or density of the mineral and not the “grit” or particle size. The grades with more dense or tightly packed particles will produce a finer or sharper edge. In addition, stone grades are not determined by color, as color alone will not differentiate the hardness of different stone grades. Each grade may contain any of the following colors: black, blue-black, charcoal, grey, white, multi-color, brown, pink or red, or a combination of these colors in a single stone. These stones come in a leather pouch to protect them when not in use. All Arkansas stones work best with light mineral honing oil to suspend the metal particles produced by the sharpening process which prevents clogging of the pores of the stone.

• Black surgical Arkansas pocket sharpening stone is 3 inches long by 1 inch wide by 1/4 inch thick
• This is the hardest of the Arkansas stones and will hone a polished, very sharp razor sharp edge
• Color can vary from dark grey, to blue/black to black.

User questions & answers

Question:

You guys have your description all backwards. Misspelled words and the 240 and 320 mixed up in description

Answer:

You can use any media to sharpen any blade, if you're patient enough. A stream of water could put an edge on hardened steel, although it might be your great-grandchildren who get to enjoy the use of that sharp edge. Sharpening is the removal of steel by abrasion, so the rougher or coarser-grained the sharpener, the more steel it removes and the faster it sharpens; conversely, the smoother or finer-grained the sharpener, the less steel is abraded off, and the slower a keen edge is formed. The hard black AR stone is an extremely fine sharpening medium--one of the finest available, actually--so obviously it sharpens very, very slowly. The question that naturally comes up is: why bother with a fine sharpener when a coarse one will do the job faster? The answer is, sometimes you shouldn't bother. With some blades, like axes or other heavier tools, it doesn't matter one bit--as soon as you can feel the sharp edge on it, it's ready to use. But this isn't the case with every blade. For example, I use my black stone on certain varieties of high-hardness, stainless steel knife blades as a finishing stone, and it brings the blades' edges to a mirror finish. Besides the aesthetic benefit, if you were to compare them under a microscope, the cutting edge of the knife sharpened with a fine stone like the hard black AR would be seen to be much thinner than the cutting edge of the axe that was sharpened only with a coarser stone. The thinner edge will be much more efficient at penetrating whatever is being cut; in other words, the thinner, more refined cutting edge created by the finer stone will get a blade sharper. The potential downside of that sharper blade edge is that being thinner, it will be more susceptible to serious damage like chips or rolls; and also to less immediately problematic, but still undesirable damage, like microscopic-sized chips and flakes along the cutting edge. These tiny chips and notches in the edge of a blade are normal and unavoidable when a blade is used, not matter how soft the material being cut, but it's none the less a good idea to minimize them as much as possible, because they're what make a blade's edge eventually feel dull, and cut less efficiently. So the question of whether or not the hard black AR stone can be used on shears is actually the question: do you want the shear's cutting edge to have a thinner, sharper cutting edge that will be susceptible to dulling; or do you want the cutting edge to be thicker and coarser, but more resilient to damage and therefore able to avoid dulling as quickly. I don't know what sort of steel the shears are made of, nor exactly the manner they're used (obviously I understand they snip closed and cut hair, but I've never personally used hair shears, so I don't know about tje day-to-day stresses on them), but I can answer the question generally. If an edge is going to be subject to a great deal of hard use, or frequent impacts--like hitting a bone or staple while trying to slice through meat or cardboard--or if the blade is made from relatively soft steel, like, say, an axe or machete, then a fine edge such as this stone would impart to a blade is not ideal. Save your money and skip it. On the other hand, if the steel is relatively hard, such as is found on most modern pocket knives, and is going to be used mainly for cutting without excessive impact or lateral torque, then the finer the cutting edge the more efficient the blade will be. Spend a bit of money on this stone, or another equivalent very fine stone, and get the edge razor sharp.

User questions & answers

Question:	is this 3 stones in one package or just one? because the picture is three stones
Answer:	Hi. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, and any confusion caused by the errors. We've reviewed and made necessary corrections.
Question:	Has anyone put this stone to heavy use and been pleased with its performance
Answer:	Thanks for checking in. This is a finishing stone so as long as your blade is in good shape this will improve the level of sharpness. It is also a small pocket stone so I use it mainly for touchups in the field and do my main sharpening on a larger stone - but that is really just preference. Feel free to contact me via my sellers link if you have other questions I'm happy to help out
Question:	Many of the reviews mention using this to flatten wetstones. Can I just use this to sharpen plane irons directly
Answer:	Around 5000 grit, the Particle Size is going to vary from 4-8 Micron. Edge is "extremely sharp" a step below "near mirror polish". Very slow sharpening speed. Edge reflects light very well.
Question:	What grits are the "coarse" "fine" and "extra fine" equivalent to
Answer:	Yes you can. Either one can be used. Just remember that if you use oil, you can never go back to using water. It permeates the pores of the stone permanently, and water will no longer be effective in keeping micro particles of metal from clogging the stone. . So decide which method is best for you and stick with it. Water is a great choice if you are sharpening afield and have no access, or desire to carry oil with you.

The DMT Difference

DMT uses micronized monocrystalline diamonds, precisely sized for a more uniform diamond surface. No other diamond sharpeners offers micronized monocrystalline diamond and most offer the lesser grade poly-crystalline diamond. Mono-crystalline is like an ice cube made up of one particle holding its form while poly-crystalline is like a snow-cone made up of many small particles that get sheared off during use.

Coverage: DMT’s process assures the most diamonds per square inch in the industry providing a more durable sharpening surface.

Surface Flatness: DMT bench stones are engineered flat, assuring even contact with the knife or tool.

Choice of Diamond Surfaces

Interrupted or polka dot surface for which DMT is famous has slightly recessed holes that will collect metal fines (swarf) removed during sharpening to prevent loading. Fast sharpening action; not recommended for pointed or very small tools.

Continuous surface presents a more conventional looking sharpening surface. Fast sharpening action; able to use on small surface edges.

DMT Commitment

DMT is committed to providing excellent diamond sharpeners in the marketplace. If the sharpener is found to be defective, we will replace it.

About Sharpening with DMT

There is a ‘break-in’ period for your diamond stone. Initially, it will feel especially rough but will smooth over time without impacting performance. Let the diamonds do the work; just light strokes with the edge to sharpen, same number of strokes each side. Approximately 5 or 6 strokes per side (depending upon condition of edge) compared to 30 strokes per side on a conventional stone, saving time and extending the life of the knife or tool. Start with a coarser grit and work to finer grits.

Why You May Need a Sharpening Stone?

A knife is arguably the most important tool in the kitchen, but it's essential that the blade is sharp. When blunt, you have less control and are more likely to see the knife slide off the food, thereby making cooking a more hazardous process.

When kitchen knives or other cutting tools like scissors are losing their edge and shine, using a waterstone is the best way to keep your knife in top condition. Keeping cutting tools sharp is not just essential for efficient cuts, but for your safety as well.

Having a knife sharpening stone in your kitchen cabinet will not just help you maintain the blade sharp, but it will hone and polish it too.

User questions & answers

Question:	will this stone sharpen a pair of Gingher scissors
Answer:	You only get one but they show the 3 different grits. These aren't stones but rather diamond embedded steel plates.
Question:	What lubricant is recommended
Answer:	Presumably, by the time you get to the extra fine stone all the heavy work is done so I'm puzzled by your question. If what you mean is many edges to be sharpened will 20-30 different blades, daily use, daily touch-up with this stone be considered 'heavy' use? If so then yes, I'm pleased. A couple passes on each side, some stropping and away I go. Leather from 2oz to 14oz straight or curved slices like cutting through soft butter.
Question:	Will this work on an axe
Answer:	Here's the "what for" on this item You absolutely can sharpen any metal on this stone, but you will be limited to the actual sharpness and bevel width. This stone is made with larger diamonds than most coarse stones. Because of this, as well as its length and width (and skid-free bottom), it can take nicked and out-of-true edges and get them back on track very quickly (use water only, no oils). It is a 2X coarse blade, and awesome doing what it is intended to do (this includes grinding down chisels, whittling tools, whetstones, iron, steel, etc). It could be used to put a decent edge on your blade, but it really is limited to coarse work needed to prepare it for the proper stone; I recommend soft stones from Arkansas, they make great whetstones for fine honing, but any quality soft stone is the next step. To make this long answer longer, the reason the DMT is mentioned and recommended to flatten whetstones is that, again, the large diamonds go to work quickly and grind down uneven, pocked, or dipped anomalies on the much softer soft stones which makes plumbing a straight edge on a fine blade much more effective. So, basically, you keep the DMT to grind the soft stone to level, use it to work the blade to rid it of abnormalities, and then let that rejuvenated hard and straight blade make woo with that fine Arkansas (or personal choice of) whetstone (water, spit, and oil are optional). Sorry for the long story, take care of the ones you love, thank a vet, prepare, prepare, prepare, and have a great September; especially those of you who have the privilege of experiencing the changing of the colors! Also, it's the time of year we wait for; muleys, white tail, wapiti, antelope, and turkey (plus whatever else ya'll get to hunt and stock in your territory). Prep them blades, clean and sleep with them guns, shake them cartridges to loosen up and distribute the powder, and keep field stones handy for quick edges for the cold, morning, field dressing...And thanks for the question!
Question:	Does it come padded, so it don't break while shipping
Answer:	Allene is correct re coarse, fine and extra fine. However, grit sizes can be confusing because of the different grading systems of the particles. Abrasives with the same grit number can actually have different particle sizes. It all depends upon the grading system. For example a 2,000 grit water stone would not have the same particle size as a 2000 grit wet dry paper. There is even a difference among the paper abrasives. The Europeans use the FEPA system. Their abrasive sizes are preceded by a P (e.g. P220). Americans use the CAMI system. CAMI just has the number (e.g. 220). Again identical numbers might have different size particles when measured in microns. Therefore, I always try to get a reading on the particle size in microns. A micron is 1/1,000th of a mm. DMT also makes Extra Extra Coarse which is a 120 mesh (thats 120 little openings per sq. in.) and particle size of 120 microns. Extra Coarse is 220 mesh and a particle size of 60 microns. The coarse grit is 45 microns. Fine is 25 microns. Extra Fine is 9 microns. There is also an Extra Extra Fine which is 8000 mesh that is a 3 micron particle size. > 50 microns is considered grinding material. 15 - 50 microns is honing material and less than 15 microns is considered polishing material. I hope this helps.

Product description

Hard Arkansas (Fine): This is used to establish and maintain a keen edge on cutting tools. Since this is a natural stone colors may include Grey, White, B lack/Grey, Grey/Pink, Black/ White, White or White/ Pink, or a combination of these colors. Genuine Arkansas stones are 100% quarried in the Ouachita Mountains of central Arkansas. They are highly sought after worldwide for their superior ability to sharpen knives and woodworking tools, as well as to put surgical quality edges on a wide variety of instruments Arkansas stones produce these fine edges s with less wear that manmade stones. Arkansas stones are classified as Novaculite, which is extremely hard and fine grained rock containing almost pure silica. These stones are classified in 4 grades and progress from Soft to Hard to Translucent and finally to Black. Each grade is based on the specify gravity or density of the mineral and not the “grit” or particle size. The grades with more dense or tightly packed particles will produce a finer or sharper edge. In addition, stone grades are not determined by color, as color alone will not differentiate the hardness of different stone grades. Each grade may contain any of the following colors: black, blue-black, charcoal, grey, white, multi-color, brown, pink or red, or a combination of these colors in a single stone. These stones come in a leather pouch to protect them when not in use. All Arkansas stones work best with light mineral honing oil to suspend the metal particles produced by the sharpening process which prevents clogging of the pores of the stone.

• Hard (Fine) Arkansas pocket sharpening stone is 3 inches long by 1 inch wide by 1/4 inch thick

User questions & answers

Question:	is this for garden tools
Answer:	Yes. You can use this sharpening stone to sharpen Gingher scissors
Question:	what's the difference between the medium, fine, and ultra fine stones
Answer:	I would suggest mineral oil. It is just an aluminum silicate ceramic stone so lots of water would also work if you have a water stone set up. I find the mineral oil from the Dollar Store to work great and it is theoretically edible. It is thicker than most oils and easily keeps the debris out of the stone.
Question:	is this stone good for 1095 high carbon steel
Answer:	I don't see why not just a little bit larger tool to sharpen
Question:	how fine is this stone? grit? microns
Answer:	Mine came in a small box with no padding and was broken in the corner, beware

User questions & answers

Question:	What size is this 1000/6000 grit whetstone? 1" x 4" or 3" x 8" ??? Product info does not say
Answer:	It can be used for garden tools but a medium stone would be better for tools. This stone is mainly for getting a knife ready for putting a razor edge on it using a razor hone.
Question:	How long should this be soaked for? I've had it submerged now for 10 hours, but I've heard that whetstones should be in for as long as
Answer:	Fine is smoother. Good for polishing a razors edge on an already fairly sharp knife. Medium us softer and removes more material faster. Good for taking out nicks and flat spots on the blade edge. It would bepossible, but slow, to sharpen a dull factory edge with any of these, but it's quicker to use a coarse stone , grinder or file to shape the blade first. I carry one of these along to touch up my knife as I use it. I have a larger faster water stone I use for serious sharpening.
Question:	Is this suitable for ceramic knives
Answer:	Yes! This stone is Great on high carbon. All Arkansas stones work great on carbon steel. I would consider getting a soft (medium), hard (Fine) and extra hard (ultra fine) stone.
Question:	Where is the stone made
Answer:	The regular "Hard Arkansas" is roughly equivalent to 1200 grit or around 11 microns. Obviously, this is a natural stone and therefore grades are approximately equivalent. My experience is Dan's whetstones are very high quality and very consistent stone to stone.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work for chipped Spyderco sharpmaker stones
Answer:	7 x 1.1 x 2.5 inches
Question:	Can I use this flattening stone on a whetstone
Answer:	10 is good. Actually, I think two hours would be enough.
Question:	How flat is this "flattening stone
Answer:	NO. There is NO TRADITIONAL SHARPENING STONE (Whetstones, Natural Stones, Arkansas Stones, or High Grade Polishing Stone which is usually made from blending a mineral dust in with a hard clay or resin, OR some polishing stones are made of a similar Ceramic to what a ceramic knife blade itself would be made of) That will hold up to a ceramic blade. Attempting to use them together would most likely cause lots of damage to the stone and probably the ceramic knife as well. The ceramic blade will chip and break. Ceramic does not wear off when rubbed against hard material like metal does. It doesn't change shape until it reaches enough stress to deform it and then it just chips and breaks instead. Now MOST of the modern economic stones are made of silicone carbide or similar corundum which is just barely harder then the ceramic in your knife, BUT That Does Not Mean you can sharpen with it. The Ceramic Blades are still TOO BRITTLE and have to be manufactured with very precise diamond honing machinery. In Short: Ceramic blades are Practically Impossible to sharpen by hand No Matter What kind of tools you have. They are a completely different class of tools and must be well understood. If you want a great and highly durable blade you only need to sharpen once or twice a Year or less depending on use Try a Tops Knife. But They will take significant life off your polishing stones so practice your technique on a basic softer knife. If you want an awesome performing multi purpose knife for outdoor use that sharpens more easily than a Tops or Ka-Bar but still holds it's edge quite well I totally recommend any A5 steel version Bark River Knives. I know this question was asked a long time ago, but hopefully it can still help you or anyone else curious about this stone, because the vendor who answered "YES" is completely Lying to you and apparently doesn't know anything about using the product, and this is the main reason I wanted to post this answer because it shows the vendor (not necessarily the manufacturer) is pushing out a product without care or attention to quality at all.

Flattening Coarse and Smooth Surfaces

The coarse side is a very fast cutting 120 grit. Especially when working on coarse water stones, this side provides the necessary cutting action to effectively flatten the stone. However, when flattening finer stones, a coarse grit leaves a finish that many find undesirable. That is why a 320 grit surface on the fine side. On water stones 1000 grit and higher, we recommend using the fine side to put a nice surface finish on the stone.

Diamond Grooves

Diamond precision cut grooves that are specially designed to collect material removed from your whetstone. This unique groove feature provides a much more accurate leveling process.

Keeping Your Sharpening Stone In Optimal Condition

It's essential to maintain a flat and level whetstone or waterstone to be able to evenly sharpen your knives to achieve peak performance. The dual grit surface of our flattening stone is designed to accurately repair and level your whetstone in a short period of time.

The DMT Difference

DMT uses micronized monocrystalline diamonds, precisely sized for a more uniform diamond surface. No other diamond sharpeners offers micronized monocrystalline diamond and most offer the lesser grade poly-crystalline diamond. Mono-crystalline is like an ice cube made up of one particle holding its form while poly-crystalline is like a snow-cone made up of many small particles that get sheared off during use.

Coverage: DMT’s process assures the most diamonds per square inch in the industry providing a more durable sharpening surface.

Surface Flatness: DMT bench stones are engineered flat, assuring even contact with the knife or tool.

Choice of Diamond Surfaces

Interrupted or polka dot surface for which DMT is famous has slightly recessed holes that will collect metal fines (swarf) removed during sharpening to prevent loading. Fast sharpening action; not recommended for pointed or very small tools.

Continuous surface presents a more conventional looking sharpening surface. Fast sharpening action; able to use on small surface edges.

DMT Commitment

DMT is committed to providing excellent diamond sharpeners in the marketplace. If the sharpener is found to be defective, we will replace it.

About Sharpening with DMT

There is a ‘break-in’ period for your diamond stone. Initially, it will feel especially rough but will smooth over time without impacting performance. Let the diamonds do the work; just light strokes with the edge to sharpen, same number of strokes each side. Approximately 5 or 6 strokes per side (depending upon condition of edge) compared to 30 strokes per side on a conventional stone, saving time and extending the life of the knife or tool. Start with a coarser grit and work to finer grits.
