Using whetstones
WITH WATER
Dip the stone in water so that the stone is completely covered with water. Depending on the size of the sandpaper grain, small bubbles will appear on the surface of the water. Let the stone soak in water for about 10 to 15 minutes, and then it will be saturated with water when water stops on its surface when removed from the water. Then we can start using it. Place it on a non-slip surface - damp, folded cloth or paper - and sharpen the knife by holding it at the correct angle. During operation, we replace the water on the surface of the stone.
After sharpening, clean the surface of the sharpening stone - you can use the coarse stone for this purpose - and let it dry.
Storage in water does not harm the stone, but in this case the stone may rot. The millstone is not damaged by any household acid, it can be dried at a temperature of 250 degrees, even in the oven.
WITH OIL
Put oil on the surface of the sharpening stone, no need to soak it, then you can start using it. Any mineral oil can be used, vegetable oil is not recommended. After using with oil, the stone can be boiled with detergent if we want to continue using it with water.
