I got into knives a few months ago and I want to pick up a sharpener. Ive been told to avoid pull through sharpeners. I dont have any expensive knives yet to worry about blade damage but I figured to go the Whetstone route regardless. 1. Any suggestions for a budget stone/kit brand? 2. Ive seen maybe 10 different responses to this so Im pretty confused but what stone grit is needed for removing minor folded over areas on the blade and then to sharpen the knife?
Thanks!
Thanks!
