Bob Kramer by ZWILLING J.A Henckels Bamboo Sharpening Stone Sink Bridge

Works well. It's solid and rigid. It is built well and it's easy to clean and dry when I am finished using it. There is one feature I would like to see on the bridge that I think would make it better: two movable stops. There are two stops to hold the stone and they work well to keep the stone locked down tightly when I sharpen. One stop is movable along a track and is locked in place with a wing nut. The other stop is fixed near one end of the bridge. When I use this bridge on my sink, it means that one end of the stone ends up near the edge of the sink on which the bridge is resting. I have to rotate my sink faucet to accommodate the fact that the stone is close to one edge of the sink. Because my faucet length does not reach the front of the sink, I have to position the bridge so that the stone is at the rear of the sink. So far so good. The problem comes when I apply running water to the stone. Even when I use a slight flow, some of the water moves away from the stone and onto the rear sink counter. I have a work around that works well and it is a thin piece of plastic shim I put under the bridge, between it and the sink counter top. This tilts the bridge inwards slightly towards the center of the sink so that the water flows away from the end of the bridge and into the sink. If you are wondering, I checked the front-to-back slope with a level and the back is slightly higher than the front. If both bridges were adjustable, I could position the stone over the center of the sink and there would be no need for the shim. Other than that - excellent, rigid, easy to clean and easy to dry bridge.

Have seen other similar products but the finish/quality of this product is far superior You get what you pay for - very happy with its appearance and functionality. However when ordering this product I suggest you specifically request Amazon not to use UPS -- we have massive problems with UPS in this area (London England) -- they do not attempt delivery and just take the items directly to the pick up point I spoke to UPS and they say they have tracking devices on their vans - BUT we have several CCTV cameras covering our entrance!! additionally when our door bell is rang it comes directly to my mobile phone -- no missed calls Given this is the 3rd time in succession UPS have done this to me and many neighbours have similar problems -- AVOID UPS

Perfect for securing the whetstone across the sink. Will recommended this

Fits perfectly on my standard size sink. Never thought I needed a sink bridge but I am not disappointed. Product works well and sturdy, although it’s quiet pricey for what it is. It secures my Naniwa Chosera’s and Suehiro Cerax stones with base really well and less mess than sharpening on the counter. Definitely a welcome addition to my sharpening arsenal.

Over priced. But, it is good for straight edge and knife sharpening!

I like the fact that it fits my sink and that it is very sturdy just setting on the counter and doesn't slide around while sharpening.

Nice quality construction, easy to use on a counter or sink, nice sticky rubber feet for use on a counter. On the negative side: - the sliding stop screw is too short, so the wing nut barely has any threads to hold. I replaced the 10-32 1.5" screw with the same but 2", and it works great. - the holder is flat only on a counter. In a sink it sits at a decline toward the sink edge, so water on the stone runs down the stone, toward the person sharpening, and onto the countertop. The manufacturer should have put a 3/4" block under the near end so the water would run off away from the person sharpening. I can make these adjustments myself, but it's a bit puzzling how this made it through product testing.

I like it. It sits well in my sink, and I can adjust it to set different size sharpening stones on it. Makes it super convenient to sharpen knives, while keeping the mess in the sink instead of on the counter, I only wish it weren't so expensive, i mean, it's not like there's a lot of engineering going into it.
