what's the grit of the stones?

Coarse Diamond = 325 Fine Diamond = 750 Natural Arkansas = 1,000 - 1,200, Oil is required only on the natural stone.

the coarser grit is 350, the fine is 800. didn't measure directly, but compared with other diamond flat stones by feel

This is a stropping compound. I'm not really sure what grit that would be. I would assume several thousands lol? It's designed to "polish"/smooth micro imperfections in the edge of whatever you sharpened. Hope this helped.

In order to sharpen a blade, the surface being used to scrape off the metal needs to have two characteristics: 1) it needs to be significantly harder than the steel; and 2) it has to have the correct "grit" or level of texture...Certain rocks, such as those contining high levels of quartz (granites) may be hard enough to use, although, not optimal. If the knife has become significantly dull, it might be improved enough to bring it back to a usable level of sharpness. Obviously using a diamond or ceramic stone will doe a better job, and allow for a better edge. Doc

You need to buy some grit I believe. It's been a while since i purchased mine.

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

I have no idea. I got sick of looking for it on the shelves so I just order it and eventually use all the grit offered in the pack.

There are different grits to the wheels so the finest could align the bland. I use it at my vacation home as my exclusive sharpener.

The particles are not regular enough for them to apply a normal grit rating, but they are sorted by maximum size in microns, I think. At any rate, I think the rough equivalents are Coarse: 250, Fine: 600, X-Fine: 1200. There is an XX-Fine, but even that doesn't get you anywhere close to 8000. If you want a finish like an 8000+ waterstone with diamonds, you have to get the paste and spread it on a substrate of your own. I'm sure I've seen diamond paste as fine as .5 micron, and it may go finer than that; I don't think they can bond particles that fine to the DMT plates.

Yes there is a sharpening stone. It is behind the rope on the sheath and it's loose.

Experience has taught me that the directions are more of a guide then a rule Depending on the stones condition and hardness experience will eventually guide you to what works best. I would recommend research online into polishing the type of stones you are working with then follow that guidance.

The stone is a wet stone... what ever you put in it, be it nuts, seeds, chips like coconut it will grind it to a wet liquidy butter.

I don't know, what grit is the whetstone? I do know however that this tool keeps my knives sharper than any steel ever could. I use it every day and am very happy with it. Every knife I have, from kitchen to hunting (excepting serrated) has benefited from this tool.

Generally there are two common types of honing stones, aluminum oxide and silicon carbide. If you have a more specific reason for asking I willtry to help with a more detailed answer.

The wheels come in two diameters and both appear to be 60 grit. The discs come in two diameters and both appear to be 180 grit. The interchangeable grinding stones come in two grits, approximately 120 and 220.

I bought this about a year ago so I do not remember. I think it was 100 grit, if any ..buy a pack or two with it. This is one of the best tools I have invested in . You will definatley enjoy it.

It is neither. DO NOT use WATER or OIL on these stones. These are for dry sharpening ONLY. Water will ruin them.
