Whetstones And Sharpening Stones

Using a sharpening stone or a whetstone is one of the original sharpening methods. These stones were used throughout our history and for a good reason because they can get the blade really sharp. You will need to use a proper technique if you want them to be as effective as possible. Just watch a few tutorials on Youtube and you should be all set.

Keep Your Knives Sharp

You needed to have the right technique and lots of prior experience if you wanted to sharpen your knives properly in the past. It was usually better to let the professional do it. Modern knife sharpeners are thankfully really simple to use and almost anyone can sharpen their blades with them. And why just stop with knives? A whetstone can be used to sharpen an axe and other equipment as well.

Sharpening Angle

It is important to know the blade angle if you want to sharpen your knife well. The Lansky Qsharp multi-purpose sharpener can sharpen a lot of different blade angles. Choosing the right sharpener for your blade is crucial because you might end up with a dull blade otherwise.

Sharpening Material

You have to also keep in mind the sharpening material and its texture. Diamond sharpeners are quite popular because of their longevity. The texture is a very important characteristic of any knife sharpener. It will allow you to sharpen the knife correctly. You should always start with coarser models and slowly move your way up. The finer textures can get you sharper blades. It is also important to have the right technique.
