Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Global MS5/O&M - Ceramic Whetstone, Medium Grit
Customer Review: Does a Fine Job
Summary: 5 Stars
My only wish would be to have it be a little longer. The ceramic material is harder than traditional stones, which gives it a different feel, but is just as effective, and won't warp the way whetstones do after multiple uses. Great tool for keeping razor sharp knives.
Description of Global MS5/O&M - Ceramic Whetstone, Medium Grit
This sharpening stone works by removing the first level of molecules from the blade of your knife, exposing a new edge. It is made from dense ceramic, which is harder than other stones and will show less wear. You won't see any dips or valleys develop in this stone, as they do in softer stones. It provides ample area on which to draw an edge down and across. (Grit is medium 1000.).One of three Global whetstones of different grit ratings, this orange one is Grit 1000 for honing dull knife edges before they're finished on a fine-grit whetstone. It's made of hardened ceramic powder for quick, easy work and can be used immediately after wetting?-there's no need for a lengthy submersion in water. Attached to the whetstone is a porcelain slab for rigidity. The whetstone rests in a removable, rubber-like plastic base to prevent slippage while it's being used. It measures 8-1/4 inches long, 2-3/4 inches wide, and 7-/8 inch thick. Instructions and diagrams for proper honing accompany the whetstone. --Fred Brack
