Soak the whetstone in water for approximately 3 minutes before use. Place it on a flat, stable surface. Use a whetstone holder or damp cloth underneath to help prevent slipping. Hold the blade at a consistent angle appropriate for the knife and move it evenly across the sharpening surface. Add water as needed while sharpening.

• #1000 is a medium-grit stone intended for routine sharpening and edge maintenance. It is not a high-grit finishing or polishing stone.

• For severely dull, chipped or damaged blades, begin with a suitable coarse-grit stone.

• For a finer and more polished edge, use a higher-grit finishing stone after sharpening with this #1000 stone.

• Use water only. Do not apply sharpening oil.

• Secure the stone properly before use to help prevent slipping and injury.

• Do not drop or subject the stone to strong impact, as it may crack or break.
