Think I’ll add the next finer grit stone to my arsenal.

so I don't mind shaving off a bit too much when I sharpen them, and it is a really good grit for repair work

I decided to better sharpen my knives with a finer grit and this is fine

The 400 grit makes them sharp like a razor and the 1000 grit keeps it that way for some time

The flattener I have not used, but it feels to be the right grit for the job.

I have another stone but the grit is coarser.

I like that it contains good "grits" in one stone

The grits seem accurate to what is advertised and the stone is a good useable size.

If you are a knife snob, you may want something with a finer grit, but most of us have better things to do than spend all day sharpening knives.

The 400 grit is perfect for reworking any damage to your edge, and the 1000 is fine enough to bring your blade to a razor's edge.

The 1000 grit side is really the right grit for buffing and maintaining your newly sharpened blade

smart grit combo for even soak time

The 400 grit is good to get a dull blade, be it a machete, knife, etc, good again, and the 1,000 grit to finish it off

However, the purchase of a finer grit stone(s) should be consider if optimum sharpness is desired.

The 400 grit is great for setting the edge

I definitely like this 400/1000 grit stone as a beginner because it can be hard to remove material on the higher grits when you do

The 400 grit is perfect for reworking any damage to your edge, and the 1000 is fine enough to bring your blade to a razor's edge.

The 300/1000 grits are perfectly adequate for all but the finest of sharpenings

Not so with bulky machinery and 8 or 10 grits to attach to your machine

but maybe I need a finer grit than 1000 and certainly need more practice.

The fine grit really helps smooth out the blade.

I'll buy a couple more in finer grit.

I don't know if the grits are really as fine as they claim, I'm not an expert, but it worked well enough for me.

The heavier grit side of the stone sculpts the metal edge while the finer grit side hones the tool to as fine an edge as you would want.

400-1000 is great grit combo for generic sharpening.

First time using a rougher grit 400 stone and it worked amazingly well

This is a good product, the grits work well for me.

The 400 grit is perfect for restoring that neglected blade, or getting your angle back where it should be

First time using a rougher grit 400 stone and it worked amazingly well

I think I'll be getting a finer grit as well since I don't always need such an aggressive surface

It comes with all that you need including maintenance tool, stand and instructions (except for extra fine grit stones and leather strop)

The grit combination I got (400/1000) suits my needs but you should research the proper grit size for your application.

I don't have that kind of time to spend to sharpen one knife, especially when it still wasn't as sharp as I

n’t polish it sharp

n’t sharpen it ground the metal
