EXCELLENT PRODUCT. DMT W6EP comes in a plastic case. The choice and the $17.00 is yours. EXCELLENT PRODUCT. DMT W6E 6" Diamond Whetstone Sharpener,Extra Fine with Hardwood Box he difference is the case. This is the exact same whetstone as the DMT W6EP which sells for $17.00 LESS. Thi one comes in a wooden box (which warped when I got it wet).
Now each knife takes about three minutes and they all go back in the drawer with edges Jeffrey Dahmer would have envied. This DMT whetstone puts this chore in a new dimension. These things do not come cheap, but if you place much of a premium on your time and you want sharp cutlery, your money will be well spent. I've always kept the household knives pretty sharp, and it's always been a chore accomplishing that. Two or three times a year I'd drag out the old Carbarundum stone that's been in the family for decades and spend hours sharpening knives.
Now, all my knives, from personal carry to kitchen, have a surgical edge. This stone should last a LONG time and I am happy I invested in it. I've long been a believer in a sharp knife edge. The edge is obtained quickly simply by following the included directions. I would recommend it to anyone who is serious about obtaining the best edge on their blade they can. All a dull edge does is frustrate you. I purchased the DMT 6" Extra fine whetstone sharpener with the hardwood box.
Then I got teh diamond whetstones. Like magic. I have always carried a knife in my pocket, and after losing 3 to TSA jerks, I almost got out of the habit. Wow. Truly a great way to get an edge on your stuff. I dug up an old swiss amry knife, and began to work the dull blade. Using various sharpeners, I ended up with a decent blade.
Just not today. I bought the fine grit, but will likely buy the medium and coarse some day. One at a time makes the "bite" not as hard on the pocket book as buying all three at one time. I've used these stones before, and they work so well I finally decided to buy one. Like most stones they are a bit expensive, but there isn't anything that will substitute.
