1. If you used oil then you have to get it out of the stone otherwise water won't stick and useless
2. Dremel metal cutting disk, do go slow and steady and use water to cool it down every 3 seconds

I never tried creating a nail nick, but using cobalt drill bits to drill holes into H beam we use 85W oil and 450 to 500 rpm otherwise smoke starts almost immediately... I did drill hole into 154cm blade for thumb studs and I use 500 rpm drill press with lots of water so using dremel at 5000 rpm... I'd be very careful if the knife is of any value

1. Why do i keep reading if you have used honing oil on a stone you can't/shouldn't use water on the same stone?
using oil and soap and waterI have a hard arkansas stone that i only use water on and the water just seems to stay on the surface but i guess there has to be some penetration.
because people like to repeat "truthy" sounding saying,
especially if they have one surprise experience which becomes a rule/truthy saying

1. Soak the stone in the water for 5 minutes, and then put it on a steady platform
....3. Sharpening result would be much better using with sharpening oil.
On amazon they're sold as "waterstones"

Okay for your dremel question, if you spray the area with cutting fluid for taps and dies it works better. Don't worry that the rpm is higher. The biggest thing is not to let any of the blade get too hot to hold so yeah spraying or dunking in water is necessary

Hi,Chris "Anagarika";16010791 said:My friend has similar stone from Taedea, I have one rebranded as Ace but is exactly same as their 400/1000. I think it is waterstone.
Hi,This video you link isn't exactly definitive though is it?
Ok, back to the "definitive" thing,Cliff doesn't soak a waterstone in oil and then show it in use. He shows us a tiny little piece of a stone glued to a stick. He even says that he has NOT tested this on very many waterstones and would be reluctant to do so.
Thats not very truthyYour words above make it sound like the idea of water and oil being bad on different stones is made up.
