Whetstones come in many shapes and sizes, but the traditional block-shape is the best for general use. They also come in many measures of coarseness of the stone. This stone is a medium grit that borders on fine, which is perfect for regular maintenance of your knives. Used monthly - or weekly if you cook a lot - your knives will keep their professional edge for a very long time. Like all block-type whetstones, lubrication is necessary for proper use. We recommend water - honing oil works as well but requires washing the blades thoroughly after use.
