I know its nothing fancy, but it's a huge step up from the no-name, no-info stone I picked up from a restaurant supply shop years ago. I'll keep y'all posted on my adventures.

Also, where is everyone?

Ehh, a lot of the old r/sharpening crew fled to the r/chefknives discord. But it's fairly dead in terms of the forum section.

Sharp knives, dull banter.

You still using this stone?

[–] itsworkthatwedo 1 points 1 week ago

Yup. About to take it on the road with me for a weekend trip. I cannot tolerate a dull chefs knife even for a weekend.

Nice combo stone. What do you use for flattening.

[–] itsworkthatwedo 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I haven't had a need for it yet but I picked up a Sharp Pebble dual grit flattening stone for when the day comes.

Huh. Learned something new. I don't use sharpening stones much, so I have never used one enough to need a flattening stone. Had no idea such a thing even existed.
