Amazon Basics Knife Sharpening Whetstone Kit, Dual-Sided 400/1000 and 3000/8000, Flattening Stone & Non-Slip Bamboo Base, 3 Count, Multicolored

I have owned my kitchen knives for about 7 or 8 years and have never sharpened them, realising how dull they were I decided to give some whetstones ago. I did a bit of research on how to use them and then ordered these due to the low price. I am really pleased with them and the results. They are good quality, the bamboo and rubber holders help reduce slip which is very helpful and once you get the hang of it the results are great. I would say, if your knives are very blunt like mine were, make sure you get a 400 grit stone to use first off. I got a 1000 grit and it wasnt taking off enough material so ordered a 400. Then this 1000/6000 combo really added to the sharpness. If you are getting into sharpening or just want to sort out your blunt kitchen knives I would recommend these.

This sharpening stone seems like a great quality item, but using is successfully requires practice and skill. So car I'm having mixed results.

Actually really nice block, looks good in the bamboo holder and nice it comes with the knife grip. Have used to sharpen on both grades (dual sided) and sharpens really nicely

very good

I got baited by a dropshipper but it works ok

It’s decent quality for the price, can’t fault it at all. Came very neatly packed in its own cardboard box, lined with padding so the stones don’t get damaged. Instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I’ve only had it a couple weeks but so far I’ve sharpened 8 knives. They all turned out better than they were when new so very satisfied. Also I can hardly see any wear on the stones so I reckon they will last for a good while so defo worth the investment. One thing I would mention though, as with all whetstones, it requires patience as sharpening one knife takes a while. Especially if they’ve never been sharpened properly before. Keep the stones and the knife wet while sharpening as per the instructions, and be sure to practice the movements. Perhaps watch a video on Youtube that demonstrates how to move the knives etc. All in all, very good kit and would definitely recommend.

Does exactly what it says—takes my “butter knife pretending to be a chef’s knife” and brings it back to respectable. Easy to use, no drama, no YouTube tutorial degree required. Four stars because it’s not samurai-sword level sharp… but then again, I’m just cutting onions, not defending a kingdom.

Excelente le dio vida de nuevo a mis cuchillos

Känns som ett bra nöbörjar kit, är mitt första och jag håller fortfarande på att försöka lära mig. Fungerar troligtvis även för den erfarne knivsliparen.

Buen prodcuto, cumple con lo que dice

Buen afilado de cuchillos, muy satisfecho, ponerla en agua 15 minutos y luego ir echando agua conforme se pierda, empezar con la 1000 y terminar con 6000

Pierre à aiguiser très pratique avec ses deux grains (400/1000) pour un affûtage précis des couteaux, du grossier au fin. La base en bambou antidérapante assure une bonne stabilité pendant l’utilisation, ce qui est rassurant. La qualité de la pierre est bonne et permet de redonner rapidement du tranchant aux couteaux. Idéal pour les amateurs de cuisine ou ceux qui veulent entretenir leurs ustensiles. En résumé : un excellent rapport qualité-prix, stable, efficace et facile à utiliser.
