Cangshan 503800 Dual-Sided Whetstone Knife Sharpener 1000/6000 Grit

Cangshan's dual-sided whetstone is the professional's choice for sharpening knives. This classic whetstone, with its acacia wood base, is the perfect tool for both professional and home chefs to keep their knives in top condition.

The whetstone, also known as a waterstone, features two distinct grit levels - coarse and fine. The coarse side is made of aluminum oxide and sharpening compounds, while the fine side is designed for honing and polishing the blade's edge.

To use the whetstone effectively, you'll need to follow a simple process. First, soak the stone in water for 10-15 minutes. Then, place the whetstone on the wooden base, with the coarse side facing up and the short edge closest to you. Hold the knife at a 16-degree angle to the stone and sweep the blade lengthwise across the surface, starting from the heel. Repeat this process on the other side of the blade.

Next, flip the whetstone over to the fine side and repeat the previous steps. This honing process will refine the edge of the blade, leaving it razor-sharp and ready for use.

After sharpening and honing, be sure to rinse both the knife and the whetstone, ensuring that they are completely dry before storing them.

Cangshan's dual-sided whetstone is backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects, ensuring that it will remain a reliable tool in your kitchen for years to come. Whether you're a professional chef or a home enthusiast, this whetstone is the perfect addition to your knife-care collection, allowing you to sharpen your knives like a true pro.
