How to use

To test the sharpening stone, engage the straight edge with the surface. Look towards the light source through the straight edge in contact with the stone, and try to see a light slit. If light passes through any part of the straight edge, the sharpening stone surface is not flat.

Both the straight edge and the sharpening stone should be dry during the test.
