Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Waterstones are a manmade stone designed to be softer than an oilstone. This soft grade of stone allows it to be used with water as a lubricant versus oil to develop a fast cutting slurry with use. 8000 grit 8"x3"x1"

5 out of 5 stars Excellent stone....decent price...   June 28, 2008

Used properly, this stone will put a mirror edge, sharp enough for surgery on chisels and plane blades. The case is a nice touch, but a true sharpening station which firmly holds it to the bench works better than the case.

I'll buy another when I wear this one out!



3 out of 5 stars good stone, lousy packaging   February 14, 2008

I bought this stone to hone my straight razors, and after flattening the rough and uneven factory finish it works great to put the final edge on. However, the plastic container it came in was broken and was missing most of the rubber feet, so I cannot use it as a "polishing station" as stated in the description. At this price, you would think they wouldn't skimp on the little things...but you would be wrong.
