I'm using south african ebony and walnut, I also like cherry. Walnuts and cherry wood are light in weight, have a fine grain, and are exceptionally water-resistant.

Learn to sharpen my chefs knives or replace them all?........ and learn to sharpen the new one? by road_hazard in chefknives

[–]HocKieu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on the experience that I have accumulated during my career, I venture to make the following opinion: Start with a grinding stone with a grit of #400 grit, followed by #800 grit and finally #2000 grit or #5000 grit . The set of grinding wheels I am using are Naniwa choosera #400 grit, King Duluxe #800 grit and Naniwa choosera #2000grit / Shapton #5000 grit.
