How do I know if my whetstone is an oil stone? I just used mine with water as advised by someone on YouTube and am afraid I broke it.

It can be challenging to tell the difference between water stones and oil stones, but generally, water stones will be slightly coarser and more porous than oil stones. Some whetstones can be left in water, but some commercially manufactured stones can soften and break down (if this is what's happened to your stone, we're sorry to be the bearer of bad news!). To be on the safe side, always follow the manufacturer's guidelines when using your whetstone.
