Global 8.25-in. Ceramic Whetstone/Knife Sharpener

This sharpening stone works by removing the first level of molecules from the blade of your knife, exposing a new edge. It is made from dense ceramic, which is harder than other stones and will show less wear. You won’t see any dips or valleys develop in this stone, as they do in softer stones. It provides ample area on which to draw an edge down and across. A final plus: there’s no need to soak it before using. (Grit is medium 1000.)
