Good stone, but don't expect you can make a razor on serrated edge with only this. It is tricky and requires skill, that is what I understood. Also what I have understood is that I would never ever buy serrated knife except if I would need an emergency knife for quick belt/garment removal, or for a battle knife may be. In EDC or heavyduty knife the serration is a drawback imho.Excellent choice for sharpening a serrated edge. As with the Lansky set, the fine stones are very fine incoarseness. This medium stone is a little on the"fine" side and is a good choice. I only use this one stone for the serrated edge, and it does a great job. I have used this on my Zero Tolerance 0350S. So you can see the type of serrations it works on. Just line the serrated area of the blade with the holding clamp. I use my Lansky set with the table top "Lansky Super "C" Clamp" holder. It helps to be able to get a close look at the work being done.We cook and bake often, using our knives several times a day. We had an old Chef's electric grinding type wheel sharpener, but it never got the knives to the sharpness that we were looking for. My wife bought me a complete set of Lansky Diamond hones. I have a very nice serrated bread knife, but never had the tools to sharpen it. My Wife went the extra mile, and purchased the Lansky Medium and Fine hones for serrated knives. It takes a long time to sharpen a serrated knife, you have to sharpen each serration separately, and then take down the burr created on the back side. The Lansky Hone(s) did a fantastic job on the Bread Knife, and now it slices easily and effortlessly. A must have for serrated knives!Another well made product from Lansky, well worth the money.Good as alwaysSure it works well as other lanksey products do but not much info on how to use itI love the Lansky sharpening system and have used one for many years on knives. I decided to try a medium and fine stone for sharpenign a few serrated blades in my kitchen and toolbox. These stones take some trial and error to understand and use. I find a slow stroke is needed to contol the sharpening stone surface so it does not fly out of a serration. You will understand what I mean if you try one of these sharpening stones. You get a sharp edge, but it does take some time to do it right.If one already owns a Lansky sharpening system (I've employed a five stone set for 25 years), this and the fine grade stone for serrated edges, are a great addition to one's set. I use these hones with the Lansky honing oil. There are easy to follow videos on YouTube to demonstrate the Lansky system technique for sharpening serrated edges.The Lansky hones for serrated knives make sharpening serrated edges easy. With a little practice, the Lansky hones make a good working edge something easy to develop. Considering how many modern knife offerings are "combo" blades, these easy to employ hones are very needed by many outdoors-men, and EDC knife owners.everything as described, I recommend itgood to keep my steak knives in top conditionQuesto accessorio è un'ottima pietra per completare e dico solo per completare il vostro kit di affilatura Lansky, diciamo che serve per entrare più nel dettaglio e cioè per affilare SOLO lame seghettate.Lasciatemi fare una piccola premessa, in quanto sono possessore già di un kit Lansky e quindi si possono utilizzare solo se siete veri amanti dell'affilatura dei vostri coltelli, altrimenti se volete solo rinfrescare la lama e non avete la pazienza, vi consiglio di stare alla larga altrimenti in fututro lascerete solo recensioni negative.Purtroppo ci vuole un pò di tempo (circa 10/15 minuti, in funzione poi della lama, per affilare il vostro coltello).Questa pietra è media 600 grit hone ceramica seghettata che vi permette di riparare e affilare dentellature danneggiati.Se usato in modo sicuro e corretto questo funziona alla grande!C'è da spezzare una lancia a favore di questo grande marchio, cioè il prodotto è Made in USA e non come molte aziende che producono altrove.Consigliato e soddisfatto al 100%.Pietra addizionale per il Lansky Sharpening System dedicata all'affilatura dei soli coltelli a lama seghettata. La pietra è a grana media, risulterà quindi efficace nell'affilatura di acciai non particolarmente duri (come l'8Cr13MoV, il 420, il 440C fino al VG10, mentre per il CPM-S30V, l'H-1 o lo ZDP-189 servirebbe qualcosa di più abrasivo). Sul lato della pietra è presente una scanalatura per l'affilatura degli ami da pesca. Insieme alla pietra viene fornita la chiavetta per il fissaggio ma non l'asta metallica, si dovrà quindi usare una di quelle fornite con il kit. L'oggetto è prodotto negli Stati Uniti e, da buona tradizione Lansky, non presenta la traduzione in italiano delle istruzioni (da qui le quattro stelle).Perhaps I’m not using it properly, but I think it’s simply a poor design. Very difficult to get the grooves sharpened uniformly. Wouldn’t buy again, would probably get one of the round handheld ones.
