  • I've just picked up a "Deluxe Sharpening System" that is quite similar to a well known brand.

    No oil included. Does anyone know what would be best?

    Cheers.

  • Deluxe Sharpening System

    Could you let me know if the stones are any good. I bought a similar to EDGE pro and they were a bit rubbish.

    For oil I'd guess mineral or maybe vegetable.

  • Sure. I only just got it. Surprisingly quick delivery actually.

    Not very scientific but running my fingers over them the stones seemed fine. My main concern is having a really fine grit stone as I'm not 100% the finest is quite there.

    We'll see I guess.

    The stones seem OK.

    Had my first run with it yesterday with the cheapo Blco multitool I bought and it seems to do the job. I don't have a stand so it's not very comfortable to use and consequently I lost a bit of interest.

    One thing I didn't expect was how hard it would be to set up with a small knife. Its clearly designed for bigger blades.
