Mizu 1000/6000 Grit Premium Whetstone Knife Sharpening Stone Set, Ideal Sharpener for All Blades, Japanese Style Waterstone with Non Slip Bamboo Base, Includes Angle Guide & Instructions

Value for your money, works well and looks nice. Good quality and fantastic sharp knives afterwards.

I'm very happy with this! It's ability to sharpen a blade is very much welcome because I was finally able to sharpen my handachi. The quality is very much high and I am happy I decided to purchase this. The sharpening guide is also very much welcome and helpful for a novice such as myself.It would be nice if they could provide an instructional video on how to properly sharpen knives and Japanese swords though.

I have been an edge chaser for many years and I have not used this set as it is a gift for a friend, but after a close inspection I was really impressed with the over all quality of the stones and the stand. This will be a first whetstone for a new edge enthusiast and it looks like a great starter! I may even grab one for myself....

The whetstone kit came in perfect condition and was just as expected. I have used it on 3 kitchen knives with success. This is my 1st time using a stone, but after watching several youtube demos, it went well. I haven't gotten the edges to cut paper like the demos, but they do cut paper and are much easier to use in our everyday use. I'm confident that after more time with them, the end product will be better that my first attempt. I actually had better luck getting the stone to not slide when I took it out of the bamboo tray. Having a stable stone while I use it was the biggest problem.

Purchased this one over similar ones because of the positive reviews and comments on customer service. Customer service is outstanding. Received inquires if I was satisfied even before receiving the set. When I received the set, the bamboo base was broken. I was able to fix it but let them, know of the problem. They quickly responded and sent a new set, even though I was able to fix it. The thoroughness of their response indicated their commitment to quality customer service.I used the set to sharpen some very old Chicago cutlery. Prior to using this set I had used a pull through knife sharpener that had a corse and fine sharpener. I was happy with the results then. I now know the difference using this set has made. The older set had made the knives sharper then they had been but using this set made a world of difference. The old sharpener had left course marks on the blades. Using the new set does take some practice. Reviewed several YouTube videos on various methods of sharpening knife blades. The 1000 and 6000 grit stones worked very well on the kitchen knives that I sharpened. I could see the difference in sharpness. Cutting tomatoes, other vegetables, and meat is so much easier now. It will take a couple of sharpenings to undo the damage done by using the old sharpener but using this set one time has made a world of difference. I now use the old Chicago cutlery as my go to knives in the kitchen.I would highly recommend using this set because of how well they work and because of the excellent customer service.
