Im looking for a sharpening stone for my blender. Is this something I can handle with a blender blade easily?

I would say no. First, it would not be a convent configuration to use for a blender blade & second, the degree of "fineness" that this stone is designed for far exceeds what you need for a blender blade.

Highly doubtful. You're probably better off buying new blades or a new blender.

No way, it won't work. The blade is fully assembled into the bottom. You can't do (what you want to do) with professional blenders kind of this one.

A decent whetstone when used properly will always get the best results with any non serrated blade from Kitana to Higo no Kami. Its what the pros use as well. As far as grit goes that all depends on how dull the blade is. A variety of stones will cover your bases and last damn near forever.

Theoretically, you could sharpen just about any blade. The better question is, would it be practical? The answer to that question is a resounding, no. It's not high grade steel at all, and if you go swinging the thing around too much, the handle will break right off. It's a costume prop, no more, no less

No, it's a great sharpener for steel knives and scissors. Ceramic blades require a diamond stone and should be powered for best results. The other issue with ceramic knives is their tendency to crack or break off due to stress cracks formed by pressure and loose bits. I leave mine to be be done by the manufacturer or other professional. Steel knives, no problem, I do it myself with products such as this one.

Any sharpening stone will work. I prefer to use a red handled sharpener made by Corona (AC 8300 is printed on it). It takes the metal down faster than a stone which I like when I am out pruning lots of fruit trees and it's lightweight. It costs under $10.00 the last time I bought one.

yes, but without a base of the sharpmaker system it may be hard depending on blade size. if you are purchasing this for just hand sharpening by itself I would look at there double sided stones or pocket stones by spyderco instead

Maybe...I have knives sharpened with diamond stones that I get to "razor" sharp but at a narrow angle. This sharpener gets my work knives sharp, but I don't consider them razor sharp. The angle is wider, but that makes the edge last longer. If your knife is really hard steel, it takes longer to sharpen and the possibility for a razor edge would come only from the ceramic rods and that could take a while.

Holds an edge just fine and very easy to sharpen and maintain. I use loose stones for sharpening, however I am sure the more modern devices can be used just as easily with the same results.

Yes. I use a wet stone. Best thing about CASE is how well it holds an edge. You really will not need to sharpen it often like a cheaper made blade.

I have two these and they both have worked fine for me I use water stones and a strop to sharpen them and I have had no trouble so far

Any rough sharpening stone will work, I would recommend one big enough to hold or one with a grip.

Hi Mark, I bought the blender about 2 months ago. No optional blade came with it. The standard equipment does easily break up normal sized ice cubes and frozen berries, however. -- Bruce

Yeah it is... I'm using this knife for 7 months now. I bought a 6000 grit stone as well for this. It's perfect! I use this everyday for sushi and kitchen preps.. It's amazing.

I would just buy a higher end blender but not the bullet brands. I had to return two of them. The sharper image is inexpensive but if you are looking for the blade, not sure if its sold separately. I'm certain you already checked the web.

If the blade doesn't have gouges in it, a kitchen honing steel will work fine. If the blade has visual pits, buy a good whet stone and use that.

Yes, I have sharpened a 3-1/2 inch bladed knife on mine and it worked great. The one issue I can see is that if the knife is too small then you run the risk of scrapping your hand on the stone.
