This helps to remove old, worn metal quickly. Medium Grit: 800 - 2000 grit - Generally a good place to start, especially for beginners. A medium grit stone will smooth out the knife bevel and will help to refine the edge. High Grit - Fine: 3000 - 8000 or more - These stones are used to smooth, polish and refine the blade, ensuring that your knife keeps a sharp edge. The Whetstone Grit Progression I used in this video: 400 to 1000 to 3000 to 8000 Note: Only finish with an 8,000 grit on a Japanese knife if you cut a lot of fruits and vegetables. German Knives and French Knives: Finish with a 2,000 to 4,000 grit Generally use a 20 degree angle, but always check your knife’s manufacturer’s instructions. Will feel heavier in your hand Japanese Knives: Made of harder steel Generally use a 15 degree angle, but always check your knife’s manufacturer’s instructions. Finish with a 6,000 to 8,000 grit stone Tend to feel lighter in your hand Splash-n-go Stones: Do not require soaking, just a splash of water Tend to be more expensive Not as beginner-friendly How Long to Soak the Whetstone: Low and Medium Grit Stones: About 5 to 10 minutes. When the air bubbles stop getting released the stone is ready. Fine Stones: Only a few minutes at the most. Some fine stones are delicate and will become easily broken if soaked at all. Check your whetstone’s instructions. Some only require a splash of water, similar to a splash stone. What is a “Burr?” A burr is the curved lip of waste metal that forms on the edge of the blade as you are sharpening with a whetstone. The act of creating a burr is referred to as “raising a burr.” You will feel a slight catch as you move over the edge, indicating the presence of a burr. This is a good thing! But at the end of the sharpening process we can “de-burr” the edge and smooth it down using a fine stone to smooth the burr.
