I finish up with a leather honing block, but this stone gives my blades a virtually flawless mirror face. It takes a lot of practice to accurately sharpen v-gouges and u-gouges. But this stone is smooth enough to help any beginner get the hang of it. It has a very smooth surface and flattens easily with a flat table-top and some 400 grit sandpaper.The cons:More susceptible to grease than other stones I've used, be sure to wash your hands before use. It is mounted to a plastic tray (won't come off) which may be bothersome to people who wish to mount it in a wooden case. The tray does however help protect your finger from getting cut. There are also no-in depth instructions for this particular stone anywhere in the packaging. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent, synthetic stone *by A***Z on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on September 10, 2011* This review is for the King Ice Bear 6000 Grit sharpening stone.I have owned this sharpening stone since June 2011.Note: It is not mentioned on the current amazon product description, but this sharpening stone comes affixed to a plastic stone holder. As far as I can tell, the stone cannot be removed from this holder. This is good if you want a stone to be in a stone holder, but bad if you plan on using every bit of the sharpening stone.This stone is a synthetic stone. As opposed to a natural stone, this particular synthetic stone does NOT create a slurry. Synthetic stones vary a bit from natural stones, see my comparison below. Some are misled when they read "ceramic sharpening stone". Many think that the entire stone is ceramic, such as some of the Shaptons are. However, ceramic in terms of sharpening stones may refer to the grit bonding. The grit in this stone is bonded by ceramic, causing the stone to wear slowly. Due to there being no slurry, the stone cuts slower than a traditional Japanese waterstone. The ceramic stone can also become clogged easily. When you sharpen, you may notice that you see tiny dark gray/black dots in the surface of the stone. This is steel clogging the pores. Rinsing the stone with water and rubbing the stone with your fingertips removes some of this clogging. I find that rubbing the stone on sandpaper the same you would re-flatten the stone removes the steel from the pores of the stone. This stone cuts fairly fast and leaves an excellent edge. I recommend stropping after using this stone, or any sharpening stone for that matter.I have ordered aΒ  Nagura Stone Β to use with this stone and will update this review once I use theΒ  Nagura Stone Β to comment on the effectiveness of the stone combination.Update (5/26/12): I have had and used this stone for quite a few months, but wanted to wait until I have used the stone enough to be sure of my opinion on it. I highly recommend the King Ice Bear Nagura Stone, it creates a slurry rapidly, helps to keep the stone flat, and very effectively unclogs the pores of the stone. This stone is very nice to have for synthetic sharpening stones such as this one. There is a downside to using a Nagura stone, I go into more detail on that in my review of the aforementioned Nagura stone.Natural vs Synthetic stoneThese are general observations and may vary greatly from stone to stone.Natural:Creates a slurryWears away fasterMore expensiveNeeds to be flattened more oftenCuts fasterCan only be soaked in water for a limited amount of time before damage to the stone occursInconsistent grainSynthetic:Creates no slurryWears away slowerCheaperDoesn't need to be flattened as oftenHas a tendency to clogCuts slowerUsually can be soaked as long as you desire prior to usingUniform grainUpdate (9/21/12): When looking at other king stones, it appears that king makes quite a few 6000 grit stones. For reference, this stone is made by King and is model number "S-3". The dimensions of the stone are (in millimeters) 185x62x15.Note: review is subject to change, this is usually due to grammar/punctuation edits to improve over all coherence. Changes may also be made to add to the review, or remove that which I determine unnecessary.

Im guessing the kentic energy over time weakened the stones integrity.
