I now have scary sharp knifes

When I received these stones they were double boxed and wrapped in bubble wrap and again with a dense foam. I would guess they read the reviews about broken pieces and fixed it. First thing is you better label them on the back as the print for the grit is the first thing you loose. Second you have to uses these on a sharpening device. Using these little stones free hand is nearly impossible. Only use the 180 stone once on any blade just to set a new angle , using it any other time is just making your job harder. As the grit goes up your work does to, so expect to take more time at 3000 then at 400 to get the polish on the edge. I have used oil and water to see what works best. I like the water mostly because of the easy cleanup. The oil just seems to get everywhere. As for wear: my first set of stones were able to sharpen about 20 6 to 12 inch kitchen knifes before I order this set. Not all the stones wear at the same rate so the 400 and 800 became to worn to use and at $12 it worth ordering a new set. I learned the hard way that these are brittle little stones when I dropped one off my work bench (about 3 feet) onto concert and it broke in half. That is why I stopped using oil and switched to water ;-)

Five Stars

Great Product fortunately nothing came broken love it works like a charm. the writing wears off quite fast so mark them in another place and enjoy

These worked great for sharpening knifes

These worked great for sharpening knifes. I recommend writing the grit on the back side, otherwise it will rub off the face and you may forget. I paid full Amazon price for these sharpening stones.

5 star considering low price.

For less than $13.00 these are a good value but need some work. The bases are useless and the glue is weak. I removed the bases and attached the stones to 1" wide strips of 1/2" pine with anti-slip shelf mat attached to bottom. What I ended up with is a set of 6 good stones. I give these a 5 because the quality of the stones themselves is excellent for the low price.

Great variety

I love the variety of stones. you can take off a lot of material to make your edge and get a great polish in just a few minutes.

Everyday use

I used this to sharpen my everyday utility knife it took the nicks out and it is razor sharp. Used it on all the other knifes and it is working great.

Great for the price

Great for the price. Get a near razor sharp edge with precise angle. This is designed to handle larger blades and narrow blades like boning knives or pocket knives are difficult to control but chef's knives it works great.

great stones

Very handy to have. I use them to sharpen everything.

Great set after the second try

Originally posted a scathing review because the set I got was terrible. Brainy Trade contacted me after reading my review and were incredibly helpful. They shipped me a replacement set and now all my kitchen knives are razor blades! Great set.
