To use the sharpening stone, first immerse it in water for 5 minutes.

Step 1 - Use the coarse side with 400 grit to sharpen very dull or damaged blades. Choose and set an angle guide in the appropriate location on the knife blade, depending on the size of your knife.

Hold the handle and the back of the knife with both hands, the ceramic part in contact with the stone surface, to maintain a fixed angle of the blade, then, push the blade back and forth on the stone applying light pressure. In general, the knife should be sharpened every 6 months, as needed.

Step 2 - Medium grit side (grit size 1000)
The purpose of this step is to remove any burrs resulting from the rough sharpening in the first stage or for day-to-day sharpening and maintenance.

Step 3 - Fine grit side (grit size: 6000)
The purpose of this stage is to grind the blade edge, each time after using the medium grit stone.
