How to use
Begin by securing the stone on a stable, flat surface; use a non-slip base if available. If the stone is of a type that requires soaking or wetting, follow the manufacturer's instructions for lubrication (water or oil) before use. Place the blade at the appropriate angle to the stone and draw the edge along the abrasive surface with steady, even strokes, maintaining consistent pressure and angle. Repeat on the opposite side to achieve a symmetrical edge, and finish with finer strokes for a smoother bevel. Clean the stone and blade after sharpening to remove abrasive residues.
Usage recommendations
Use the Opinel 14 cm whetstone for regular edge maintenance and occasional re-profiling. Match the stone’s grit (or combined grit sequence if using multiple stones) to the condition of the blade: coarser abrasives for re-shaping damaged edges, finer abrasives for polishing and touch-ups. Store the stone dry and clean to prolong its service life, and inspect blades for chips or excessive wear before sharpening to select the proper technique.
