  • Been using my 1000/3000 whetstone and noticed that I'm managing to get knives consistently sharper than the sharpener I was using before. However they're not getting really, really sharp. I'm a total novice using it so I'm not sure if the limit on sharpness is the fineness of the stone or my ability to use the thing. Is there any need for a stone finer than 3000 or should I be able to get things properly sharp with that?

  • Should be able to get scary sharp with that. Tried permanent marker on the cutting surface to make sure your removing material where you think you are?

  • Yep, testing by cutting paper.
    Ah ok, sounds like I just need to practice then. Will try a marker, never thought of that.
