I copied my comment from another thread where I listed what he used that I could identify below. If you have any questions about technique I would be happy to try and answer them!

---

He's using a couple of things.

First, the white liquid is just some regular kitchen cleaner with a mild abrasive like soft scrub.

Next, the black whetstone looks like a welsh slate which is a type of natural whetstone. Could easily be something else, especially since welsh slates are usually rather high grit, but that was the first that came to mind. It could also be an oilstone, but they don't usually get muddy like the one he used did. Those are the only black whetstones I know of.

After the black stone he uses a rust eraser.

Next, the green block is honing compound. Green compound is usually around 1 micron.

Next, the progression of stones are all Shapton Pros.

Finally, he strops on this overprice Bob Kramer strop block.

---

What he's actually doing:

  1. Scrubbing with cleaner to remove some of the rust

  2. "Muddy" whetstone to remove more of the rust. Muddy stones work out unevenness in the blade.

  3. Rust eraser to remove even more rust and give the start of a consistent finish

  4. Green honing compound which he's using as a metal polish (which it effectively is)

  5. Regular whetstone sharpening with a progression of 2k, 5k, 12k (Shaptons are color coded)

  6. Leather strop

The discoloration on the edge appears (on my monitor) to be due to one of two causes. I think most likely is scratches from storage in the edge guards.. The Messermeister guards are hard plastic, any residue within the guard will lightly scratch the blade. If will also prematurely dull the blade. I would replace it with a felt guard such as Korin's http://korin.com/HA-SAYA-KG-180?sc=27&category=280115

Food residue as mentioned above is another likely culprit. You don't have to be able to feel it for it to be there. I use a couple stainless knives when rocking cilantro and parsley and they take on a green "patina" from doing so. No harm, no foul - if I don't want to see it anymore I clean it.

In either scenario the answer is the same. The rust eraser linked below is invaluable for removing scratches and/or cleaning a knife blade. Take care when working near the edge to only stroke it along or across the edge. It is a very light abrasive and will dull the blade. Very fine automotive sandpaper will accomplish this as well but the rust eraser is the easy button.

I stumbled across this Rust Eraser Sabitoru Medium and Fine 2-piece Set on Amazon a few weeks ago and it's great. Literally just like an eraser, clean your knife off, wet the eraser, and the rust comes right off.

That 1x42 should do the trick to get started as long as it has a platen to keep things flat and belts in the right grits but before you start grinding away you might try starting with these https://www.amazon.com/Rust-Eraser-Sabitoru-Medium-2-piece/dp/B00FS0BFJC

The red is a coarse and white is a little smoother. They sell individually too. Probably only need the fine (just search rust eraser on Amazon) one but I just like them. You just rub it on top of your water stone after it looks metallic/gray on the surface from all the metal clogged on top. This will rub it right off. Can also use to literally rub/erase rust spots off of a knife etc.

They feel like rubber sandpaper lol.

I suggested the Atoma 400 in our earlier posts too.. I found a new diamond plate yesterday.. I linked it in the big post I made with all the links. S & K sk11 plate. 160/600.

Yes, they’re much lighter. Also, by the look of this one there’s a lot of steel filings already on the surface. I would buy a rust eraser, which you can use to remove that material.
