These stones are still the best around. They can eventually wear out, but my old ones lasted for about 18 years. I have also purchased some very inexpensive brands to see if they work at all, so I could save some money. They do not last. After a few times of using them, the abrasive is gone...... just a smooth surface.

These are good quality sharpeners, I've paid over $50 locally for this same sharpener in a different grit. I got a great buy on this one.
