## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why is it called a "wet-stone"? Should it be wetted with water for use?**
A: As some of the other answers have alluded to by correctly spelling it "whet stone". "Whet" means to sharpen or hone, hence it is a "sharpening stone". It will whet without water or oil (it is simply an abrasive stone), wetting it simply prevents heat build up due to friction.

**Q: Is this whetstone worth buying? How does it work for Kitchen knife**
A: My kitchen knives are the sharpest they have ever been. You need to use both sides of the stone for a perfect finish (20-30 mins a knife) but it's very therapeutic.  I'm very happy with my purchase.

**Q: Don't whetstones need to be soaked for at least 12 hours?**
A: Perhaps no idea. I did it for 20mins and I can cut through silk (probably). But if you want to soak it for 12 hours you can. I may have when I first got it, but can not remember. I just followed the insctructions. Either way its calming sharpening.

**Q: Do instructions come with this?**
A: There is a little leaflet in the box, but that won’t teach you how to sharpen with a stone like this. If you’ve never used a stone like this, I suggest you look it up on YouTube. There are hundreds of videos on how to do it... once you’ve tried it a few times, you’ll get the hang of it. It’s not that difficult :-)
