The WÜSTHOF Tri-Stone Sharpener includes three different grits for both honing and sharpening your blades. The firm, but still porous, structure of the stone continuously releases small particles during the sharpening process. This power in combination with water helps to deliver a fresh sharp edge on your knives. The three different grits of the WÜSTHOF Tri-Stone Sharpener are Fine (J3000), Medium (J1000), and Coarse (J240).

• Before using your whetstone, be sure to soak it in water to ensure it stays wet while sharpening knives.
• Always use the entire surface of your whetstone.
• After use, rinse under running water and leave to air dry.
• Use the whetstone’s holding tray to store it. We recommend a box to protect your stone when not in use.
• If necessary, use a rubbing stone to roughen the surface and remove any unevenness.
