Dual Sided Green Whetstone
This whetstone has two different sides of grain for sharpening and polishing knife edges. The dark green side is coarse grit 400. The light green side is fine grit 1000. For best results, submerge the stone in water for about 5 - 10 minutes. Waterstones should be soaked in a shallow container of water for a few minutes prior to use. The time required will vary based on the stone's porosity. A fine polishing stone will take 15 or 20 minutes to soak, while a coarse stone will become saturated more quickly. During the honing process, the stone's should also be kept wet. Waterstones do not require storage in water, and care should be taken not to leave a waterstone in water when freezing conditions may occur. Continue to apply water to the stone while sharpening your knife. After sharpening is complete, rinse the stone and clean off the grinding residue. Clean your knife with hot water.
