3 Sided Diamond Sharpening Stone Knife Sharpener | 400 1000 8000 Grit Diamond Ceramic Whetstone with Angle Guide Non Slip Base for All Hardness Kitchen Knives Tools

I am giving this little unit top marks. I think it has everything any person would need, who wants to sharpen knives (and tools) on a stone. The two diamond grades are a good choice. Course for reshaping an edge (like taking a kitchen knife from an undetermined edge-angle near 20° to a solid, known 17° angle (good for lots of kitchen knives, except some Japanese styles which like a 14° or 15° edge.) The 'fine' diamond face of this block is very fast cutting, and will sharpen most edges in a few careful passes, if they're near-sharp. The ceramic face works so well at finishing, it's surprising how keen my knives were without stropping. My favorite part of the set is the little edge guide. It is of better Design than the similar one I use. I recommend that each user uses this pretty universally. It's low profile gives a very good read on the sought-after angle. I won't complain, or give marks off because I quietly felt the unit could be a little heavier. It works really well. It's non slip feet are pretty good, and it profits evn more from a little piece of non slip mat, if you have it. All in all very good. Competes well with the 2 sided Sharpal diamond stobe also sold on Amazon (currently for 2 very different prices). Of the 2 I'd choose the Sharpal, and would have a couple other gadgets (a very fine water stone, or some adhesive diamond paper, a leather strop, and compound, etc.) But I think a lot of people will like this unit. And I think they should.

This makes knife sharpening of any kind fun and relatively easy to do. Definitely gets a blade razor sharp. It’s a great set with everything you need. I definitely recommend especially if your a starter.

Good quality and performance

Works pretty good for large kitchen knives. I can’t seem to get a good edge on a pocket knife. All in all, you can get a razor sharp finish ending with running it on a sharpening steel. Good value.

Wanted larger one was perfect for long bladed knifes. Sturdy and great quality stone.

Works well. It is big enough to do large 10" & 12" butcher and carving knives. Did 15 knives right after we got it. Will have to see how they last now.

My husband was sharping all the knives Christmas morning! That is a good sign..

Base is supposed to be no slide, but must put brace it against a solid to keep from sliding. Stone is good
