Description of Woodstock SteeleX D1130 1000 Grit and 6000 Grit Japanese Waterstone
To achieve a surgically sharp edge on your tools, nothing works faster or better than Japanese water stones. The abrasive slurry produced on top of the stone cuts aggressively and polishes the blade as it sharpens. If you've never tried sharpening with water stones before, you'll be astounded by the results.

Customer Review: Chisels are a viable tool now
Summary: 5 Stars
I have resisted hand tools and chisels in general because I could never get them sharp enough and it took forever. A friend showed me how easy it was to tune one up on a water stone (once they have been hollow ground) and I was amazed at how little time and what good results came from it. Now, I use chisels and feel it slice the fiber instead of tear it. The combination 1000/6000 stone may not last overly long, but I'll get dedicated thicker ones when the time comes because water stones are the way as far as I'm concerned.
Edit as of Dec 2010: While I don't use this particular stone because it finally wore out, I definately have stuck with waterstones. Many people don't like them because they are messy, but with the polishing stones, you only have to spritz with water right before use. To avoid the soaking of lesser grit stones, I did move to a DMT diamond 1200 stone for the shaping which also only requires spritzing, but still have an 8000 for polishing. Keeping it flat is as simple as a 1'x1' tile and a 220 grit sanding screen. Draw a quick pencil grid on the stone, turn it upside down and rub on the sanding screen and when the pencil marks dissapear, your done. It takes far less than a minute. I don't see myself ever switching - fast and very effective.
