4 Stars
Ease of use, dire warnings on back of packaging.
Works well to keep knife gliding along the whetstone but soaks into a wet whetstone fairly quickly. Was really turned off by the cancer and reproductive harm warning on the back of the package, would recommend washing knives and stones super well after sharpening.
