  • A few questions for the sharp minds of the knife thread.

    1. Can someone recommend a (cheapish) whetstone and some training wedges? I don't have fancy Japanese knives so I understand I want something like a 400/1000

    2. Can someone tell me what a steel is for and if they wear out?

    3. My Father-in-law(ish) has a one of these which I like using:

    Global handles and my hands don't get on though. Can any recommend something with a similar shape blade? Can it be had for £30?

  • A wetstone is ok if you want to take a lot of time to learn it and have a very steady hand. But why don't you take a Lansky system and have a perfect result every time? You can even buy seperate stones for it for better results.

  • Try... NANIWA wet stone....this is for vegetables
