KAI Whetstone Sharpener 400/1000 With a dual rough 400 grit side for grinding & smooth 1000 grit side for polishing. In a practical plastic casing & water reservoir for moistening the whetstone during sharpening.
Sharpening Instructions:
- The whetstone should be soaked in water for about 10 minutes before using it
- Make sure that the stone is always slightly wet during the grinding process
- Asymmetric blades: place the ground side first on the whetstone
- Make sure that you use the angle recommended by the manufacturer
- Grind the knife with a 45 degree angle to the whetstone (to get the largest possible surface), pressing towards the edge and releasing the pressure when moving the knife back
- This should be repeated proportionally on all parts of the blade
- Once the ground side is done, reverse the knife and repeat the process as described above on the hollow-ground side but less often 1/10 will do
- Symmetric blades: repeat the process as above, but reduce the angle to approx. 15 degrees
- It is important to grind both sides of the blade equally to regain a symmetrically sharpened knife
