Tools and Hardware Reviews of DMT W250EF-WB 10-Inch DuoSharp Bench Stone - Extra-Fine / Fine With BaseCustomer Review: A Great Single Solution for Keeping Knives Sharp Summary: 5 Stars
DMT sharpening stones are durable, fast, and easy to use and clean. Some knife purists think of them as crude, and worry that they take too much metal off too quickly (just use a lighter touch and you'll be fine). If you just want to keep kitchen knives, pocket knives and chisels sharp with minimal effort they are a very effective solution.
The 10" surface of this product is much easier to use, faster and more enjoyable than the 6" ones. More room to work with means you can take a longer stroke and cover the entire blade without worrying about sliding off the surface. The size is also a drawback - it won't fit easily in a kitchen drawer, at least not if you want to keep other tools in there. I store mine in a cabinet among cooking vessels.
Dual surfaces (fine/extra-fine) make it easy to take a tool from somewhat dull to razor sharp without keeping track of multiple stones. It is fairly easy to switch between the two surfaces (just slide the stone out of the stand, flip it, and slide it back in).
The stand is stable on a counter, and the rubber feet keep it in place well.
If you want the simplest solution, go for a 6" stone. If you can pay more, this larger version is well worth the price for convenience, speed and the pleasure of having more room.
