Can i use an oil stone to sharpen kitchen knives?!
Answers: or would a wet stone be better?
Either works fine. I'm partial to the wet stone, because it makes less of a mess. Both are just used as a lubricant. I've used both and pretty much got the same results.
go for the oil stone...but a fine one
either make sure you clean them before use
Either but using a steel regularly is better.
You can use an oil stone - remember to wash it though - the knife that is, my husband didn't - yuk. LOL
whetstones can usually be used with water or oil.
As a rule of thumb once you have used a stone with oil you shouldn't then use it with water later on.
If you are sharpening kitchen knives it's a good idea to use edible oil.
Put the knife down and no one will get hurt son.
