I must admit that I am not yet skilled at sharpening with stones, but both the stones and the base are very well made. This is not cheap or shoddy. I'm sure the stone will be used often.
Work Sharp’s whetstone features a dual-sided ceramic sharpening surface with 1000/6000 grit. Outfitted with a robust base incorporating a water reservoir and dual-stage angle guides, the stone is engineered for sharpening both compact and larger knives.
Constructed from aluminum oxide, renowned for its exceptional hardness, the stone is apt for refining nearly any type of steel blade. The 1000 grit side is intended for honing slightly dulled edges or for initial edge polishing, while the 6000 grit side is perfect for final polishing, producing a mirror finish and razor-sharp edge.
A polymer base ensures stability by preventing movement during use. The integrated water tank allows one face of the stone to be moistened as needed. Magnetically attached angle guides with 15st. and 17st. angles support accurate and consistent sharpening.

Instructions for use Immerse the stone in water or apply sharpening oil before use. Position the whetstone securely on a flat surface. To sharpen a knife, slide the blade across the stone multiple times per side, using gentle pressure. Always maintain a blade angle between 15st.–30st. during sharpening.

The stone is sturdy, and the tray is also of good quality.
-
The workmanship is very good, as with most products of this brand. I recommend it.
-
Good quality stone, the tray is great—it retains water so the other side of the stone stays wet all the time.
-
Good quality stones. For inexperienced people, the angles are helpful. The plastic handle is solid, and the small tray collects excess water. A product worth recommending.
-
Good quality stone. The base is also useful. A stone from another manufacturer that I have also fits the base.
-
Despite being made of plastic, the construction is very solid. Excellent quality sharpening stones. I recommend it!
