Pros & Cons
Pros
This stone functions flawlessly. It is a little soft, so you'll have to flatten it more often than other stones. This stone is quite thick also, i might not ever have to but another stone in this grit.
The king combo stone is great as well but the 1000 grit on the combo stone is a lot thinner than this one. Certainly cuts faster than my naniwa 3000 and for the price point it feels like a steal.
Flawless sharpening, flawless cleanup. For general sharpening of kitchen knives it shines. If you sharpen with wet stones this is a must.
Very few passes needed to achieve results. Will serve 95% of people very well. Performs exactly as expected.
Cons
The stone was chipped all the edges.

Packaging/appearance
My only qualm would be that the stone was chipped on the bottom two corners when it came
Competitiveness
I ordered my wife a set of wusthof kitchen knife set and wanted good waterstones to keep them sharp
With this king sharpening stone 1000 i beginning to sharpen my chef knive after that i used my 6000 grids
It cuts almost as fast as a highend expensive 1000 grit stone
I have experience with much pricier stones from naniwa shapton suehiro imanishi etc
