Review title: Surprisingly Good for the Price
Product review: After some hesitation, I bought one of these to hone my hand plane irons and chisels. I ran water on it for about 15 seconds before I started the honing, using a Veritas honing guide. The 1000 grit side took 5 degrees off the edge in no time. I flipped the stone to put the finish on with the 6000 grit. The result was a perfect edge with a mirror finish!This stone is quite a bit cheaper than Arkansas stones and easier to use. It is a bit softer also - don't try to use the corners. I tried to sharpen a Spyderco "spyder" ground edge, lots of serations, and concluded this is not the stone for that task, I went back to my ceramic stick for it. For plane irons and chisels, it is the best. You can redress the surface with a diamond stone.
