The innovative and practical Holder keeps our Whetstones firmly in place and provides additional stability and safety when sharpening the knife. Anti-slip silicone feet ensure that the Holder, containing the Whetstone, will not slip. Your workplace also remains clean as the sharpening sludge is collected. The Holder is suitable for all WÜSTHOF Whetstones and for other common whetstones or sharpening stones.

• 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.
