Do I soak the stone before use?

Can Arkansas Stones be used with water instead of oil? While they can, we recommend using honing oil. The main difference between the two is that when oil is used, some of it remains in the stone after a sharpening session, so the stone is always at least partially charged with oil the next time it is needed. A stone soaked in water can dry out between uses however, meaning that a generous amount of water needs to be applied to the stone with each use.
