Does the 50005 have a fine, medium, and coarse stones.

fine for sharpening a dull knife but the motor is weak and it is slow going

It has 2 stones. There isn't a medium one. It doesn't seem to need it. It works well. The first reprints the edge to proper angles then the second smooths it to a nice sharp edge. Used often, the fine side will keep the edge perfectly.

It's faux stainless. The only real differences between the 560 and 565 are strictly cosmetic. The function of the grinders are identical. Of course the price of he 565 is higher. In my opinion I'd opt for the 560.

not to shore on the number of grit the fine side must be 600 to 800 it s good for touch up on knifes or turning chisels to keep a good edge the medium side is pretty fine to good to put on a newer edge

Mine came with two sets of stones and one set of wipers. This is an awesome product for the money. I have used a Sunnen that is exactly the same and I could tell no difference. The grits I received were approx. 120 and 220.

I'd think that unless you're doing major reshaping (removal of large chips) you'd be better off starting in the 1k range as your most coarse stone. You would probably be well served by searching for "waterstone" instead of "wet stone",

I use a carbide medium and a ceramic fine to keep it nice and sharp ... Or my wet stone

They are intended to be a single lot. They generally are all about they same hardness. It is best to use a range of sizes, where the smaller stones will help smooth and polish the larger stones surfaces.

Yes. Light and compact. Note that not easy to sharp angle on sharpening stone.

The medium stones are 2 to 2.5 inch diameter and generally round. The largest stones are 4 to 5 inches dia and tend to be more oblong. The medium stones fit nicely along the length of the spine, while the largest stones are good for the buttocks.

Just a SINGLE 'stone', actually a steel plate covered with the proper grade of abrasive grit. The illustration seems to be trying to show the various grades available, as marked on the side.

Yes, it has a sample set of rocks and enough grit for one batch of polished stones.

Yes, for medium grit stones, please soak in water for 10-15 minutes before use.

I use a 3 stone kit. I usually only use the medium and fine stones. I have been disappointed with my knife, it came dull, and the edge had been burned by the grinder. I sent it back thinking they would replace the blade, it came back still dull and grinder burned out near the the this time. My nephew bought one like mine and his has been awesome, maybe I just got a lemon.

Diamond or ceramic. Forget 'flat rocks'. If you meant whetstone, no it won't. Diamond or ceramic. D2 is HARD steel.

I would think so since on the Knoop hardness scale glass&ceramic is 400-550, porcelain floor tile is 500-650, and granite is 550-650, tungsten carbide is 2000 and diamond 7000. diamondsure.com/materials.shtml Hope this helps. Charlie

It doesn't say on it but it isn't as heavy as stone wear nor as as light as porcelan. I bought my first set like this thirty years ago. It was getting some chips and scratches so I wanted this pattern again. The insignia on the back is slightly different but the set is really nice and wearing well so far even when my husband loads or unloads the dishwasher! I think you would like this fine.

The third stone is white and feels completely smooth. I requires an oil like lubricant to use. I am pretty sure it is a 1000 grit stone. the stone feels like a piece of marble. Hope this helps.
