The kit comes with:
Knifewear 220 stone
This 220 Grit waterstone is the fastest coarse stones we’ve found. It removes steel efficiently and dishes slowly. You will still need to use a truing stones after every 2-4 knives sharpened, but it is minimal compared to other stones on the market.
Please soak for 20-30 minutes before use.
Knifewear 1000 stone
This is your Everything Stone. The one stone to rule them all. Every knife being resharpened touches this stone. Either this is the starting place or to be used after the 220 Grit stone. We recommend finishing most non-Japanese knives with this stone, but if you are the kind that wants to get an extra 20% out of everything you will want to take those Henckels to 4000 or 8000 and really have them sing.
Please soak for 20-30 minutes before use.
Knifewear 4000 stone
This is a fast hard waterstone that leaves a silky edge. Not many 4000 grit stones will raise a burr but this one does, it’s a race car of a stone. With this stone you start striking the sharp potential of your Japanese knife and make your European knives smooooth.
Please do not soak, just splash water on when it’s time to use!
