Consumer Reports

For the avid cook, there are few more valuable tools than a solid and dependable knife—and taking optimal care of one is of utmost importance. This double-sided sharpening stone comes with both a coarse and a fine side, which provides exceptional sharpening and an exceptionally sharp edge via the fine side. CR editor Paul Hope found that the Sharp Pebble Whetstone put an edge on the knives that none of the electric or manual sharpeners could match, making it a top choice for cooks who are serious about sharp blades.For more options: Best Knife Sharpeners

 This whetstone gets my blades back to razor sharp quality in a matter of minutes and gives me a sharp blade wherever I go. The dual sided grit is what really drew me to this stone. As the 1000 grit cleans up the edge and gets any major imperfections out and the 6000 grit gives me that razor sharp edge. Stand it comes in is nice too, keeps it in place while working the blade, you won't regret the purchase

 I'm a carpenter avid outdoorsman so in general I like to keep a knife on me wherever I go as you find yourself in need of one more often than not. I beat on my knives hard, regularly using them on the job site to cut miscellaneous day to day material that oftentimes dulls the blade into becoming a glorified butter knife. This whetstone gets my blades back to razor sharp quality in a matter of minutes and gives me a sharp blade wherever I go. The dual sided grit is what really drew me to this stone

Sharp Pebble Premium Whetstone Knife Sharpening Stone 2 Side Grit 1000//6000 review

 With 4 different grits, patience and following pre and post instructions, this should last years!

Guide only fits blades over 6"

I bought this product because I wanted to develop my skills for sharpening my kitchen knives. If you’re knives are very dull then I would suggest getting a quarter grit such as 400. I think this particular product is more for someone who has maintained their knives and the 1000 grit works well. In my case I had to buy a stone that had 400 grit on one side and 1000 grit on the other

 You will need to watch several online videos to develop a technique. I think my first attempt at sharpening was successful and I will continue with it. It worked way better than trying to use any type of drag through sharpener

Good for beginners

 Had the tomato ready for testing. Impact of the sharpener was immediate. I could literally see a small nick in one of our paring knives and after working the stone it was gone and sliced the tomato like a hot knife through butter. Nice product packaging as well

We purchased a set of Wustof knives several years ago and have noticed the dullness despite trying a variety of cheap sharpeners. After paying $15 to get one knife sharpened I divided it was time to take care of our knife investment. I got the sharpener today and immediately set to work sharpening all of our knives. I had watched two YT videos so felt comfortable on how to use the sharpener right out of the box

Knife investment

 The one recommended here is the best for your typical kitchen blade use. The instruction manual, actually a one-sided page, describes how to use the stone, however as a training professional I would recommend some photos or drawings to make the steps clearer. Epicurious' YouTube channel has a very good demo on sharpening using this stone: "The Best Way to Sharpen & Clean Knives." The included angle guide that holds the blade at the proper angle to the stone is good for beginners, but is small enough to easily use

 I downloaded it and discovered that the link is actually to a no-cost subscription to an on-going newsletter, with a link to download the actual ebook. Nonetheless, the content is useful; for example, they revealed an interesting tip to help the sharpening process which I have not yet tried but look forward to doing so.

Effective and simple to use

 Also, make sure you dry everything well before storing again as the wooden holder will mildew (that was not a pleasant clean up). But overall, a good value for keeping your kitchen knives about as sharp as they can be.

Good budget option

 Even though it still counts as "hand sharpening", it's "semi-guided" and it's SO fast and easy to whip out and use and put away. I love my KME but sometimes I'm really just not in the mood to deal with clamps and angles and playing tetris to fit it back in its box.

I am a budget knife collector and wanted to know the best way to keep the edge sharp. I've heard of wet stones, honing steels and your ordinary buyable sharpeners that I've been advised against.

As many of you are collectors or enthusiasts, I wanted some of your opinion on this before I buy anything for it.

Spyderco Sharpmaker Set with DVD 204MF (REVIEW) for 2019

 But really, who needs razor edge on their pocket knife? I only did it because I could without spending more money.  Thanks for reading my review, and remember to stay safe with your knives!

Solid Product for an Unsure Customer.

The product is easy to use and puts a very sharp edge on my kitchen and hunting knives and the results are easy to duplicate. Great product and very portable. This is a must have in my kitchen and tackle box for in the field sharpening of fillet and hunting knives.

Spyderco Sharpmaker - Awesome!

  For the one I purchased from Amazon, the rods are a bit too small and fit very loosely in the base. The ceramic rods are a bit loose, but the medium grit rods are very loose and wobble around too much in the base. It's somewhat usable this way if you're careful, but I wanted a bit more precision to sharpen my Spyderco knives. In fact, given the high quality of every Spyderco knife I have and the ingenuity of this design, I found it hard to believe this was a genuine Spyderco

..  For the one I purchased from Amazon, the rods are a bit too small and fit very loosely in the base. The ceramic rods are a bit loose, but the medium grit rods are very loose and wobble around too much in the base

 Not only are they a bit too small to fit snugly in the base, the ceramic rods that came with mine also have nicks in the corner edges, so one has to be careful to not use the area of the rod with those defects. I marked the nicks with indelible ink to speed up setting it up.  Great design(!!!) but the fit and finish isn't up to the incredibly high quality I've learned to expect from Spyderco. I want to give it 5 stars, but the two I've purchased miss that mark

Quality control?

 Looked interesting but was not too keen on my chances of getting and keeping the right angles for all the knife sizes. There are tricks on the web like using a certain amount of pennies or quarters stacked up at the back of the knife to raise it up and get the right angel. But the examples I saw seemed to be mostly for bigger chef knives. What happens when the size of the knife changes? If you have to go from a wide Chef to utility, steak or really thin boning or paring knives, then how many pennies? And then I wondered, if I did manage to find the angle can I keep it throughout the sharpening? Maybe not

 Liked the look of this unit as it looked pretty well constructed and thought out. And seemed simple and fairly fool proof to use, just pull down along the rods. (Hint; This unit comes with a DVD training video as well as a booklet. The actual training video is uploaded on youtube by Spyderco in 4 parts

Look, this is a great system, but it's just not for me. I just needed a way to keep our kitchen/steak knives super sharp (they've become super dull lately), I have no fancy/tactical knives, no high-end Japanese/German steel things.

Just A Little Bit Too Much Work Esp. for working Dull Mid-Quality Kitchen Knives

 I guess I’ll start outside and work my way in. Two problems I had before I even got the product setup and ready to even attempt to use were related to the case itself. First off the case is of a friction lock design. Meaning as you push the outer case cover down presumably when done using the sharpmaker for your purposes the top of the case fits on snugly

 As mentioned above it absolutely is not worth it’s weight in dirt.  I suppose if you know nothing at all about how to sharpen a knife and are given a knife that is as sharp as the handle of a spoon then maybe you’d think it does a stellar job by ‘improving’ that ‘edge’ on your knife. But if you are competent in any regard in the art of knife sharpening you’ll very quickly realize this product is a joke as mentioned above not worth it’s weight in dirt.  I would give it zero out of five stars if I could

Terrible from top to bottom and here's why.

'  The Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker, all things considered, is probably the greatest thing to ever hit the knife market. Ease of use, affordability, durability, and end result are all important. The Sharpmaker is A+ across the board. Is it an Edge Pro? Absolutely not, but its also 1/5th the price
