It also helps to keep the whetstone clean and free from clogging. ### **How to Use:** 1. **Preparation:** Soak the whetstone in water for about 10-15 minutes before use. This ensures that the stone is adequately saturated and ready for effective sharpening. 2. **Sharpening Technique:** Place the stone on a stable surface. Hold your tool at the desired sharpening angle (typically 15-20 degrees for knives) and gently slide it across the surface of the stone in a sweeping motion. Apply even pressure throughout the stroke. 3. **Maintenance:** Regularly rinse the whetstone with water to remove metal particles and debris. Ensure the stone is completely dry before storing it to prevent damage. 4. **Finishing Touch:** After sharpening, you can use a finer grit stone if desired to further refine the edge and achieve an ultra-smooth finish. ### **Versatility:** Whether you’re a professional craftsman or a home enthusiast, this 1000-grit water stone is an essential tool for maintaining the sharpness and precision of your cutting tools.
