The stone might tear down early because of the use of water.Ĭeramic stones don’t really make a different class or anything but they certainly are the best option for local or low-grade use (By low grade I refer to non-industrial use that is by chefs and cooks to sharpen their knives and other cutlery items.) They neither require oil nor water for use. The only drawback of water stones is that it is not that long-lasting. If compared to oil stones, these are faster at sharpening edges and aren’t difficult to work with. The best part about these is that they give you a nice polish in the end. Also, they have a slower sharpening rate. These usually require the use of oils and hence leave oil residues on the instruments hence these are a bit messy.
