Can this set be used for wet cupping? do needles/blades come with it?

No needles or blades. I am uncertain of the wet cupping although I have seen wet cupping done with cups like these.

No needles or blades included. I am unsure if there is a difference in the actual cups for wet cupping vs dry cupping.

No needles or blades came with the set I received. Set does come with magnets that can be pulled out. I don't see why you couldn't use it for wet cupping.

I found it by mistake. I didn't know there would be a needle in the kit. It's wrapped in plastic. I suggest looking very thoroughly through everything to see if you can find it. I never used the needle provided and just used one I like to use. Hope that helps.

Technically yes they can, however the narrow stones are less than ideal as you won't be able to sharpen the entire length of the blade at once. You'd still need further hones even if you were able to get it honed on this as straight razors generally need to be honed up into the 6-8k grit range in order to prevent pulling, tugging and ensure a comfortable shave, some will go as high as 10k 20k or even 30k with some of the Japanese waterstones. You'd be better off buying stones large enough and in more appropriate grit ranges or trying your hand at using lapping films which are less expensive than even this tri-hone.

Yes, you can use them for wet cupping. They are boil-able so disinfecting is a cinch.

I've discovered you can use an eye dropper or a syringe, without the needle of course. Get one cheap in pharmacy. You can also transfer your almond oil into different bottles if you buy in bulk.

Yes. Excellent set that work very well. If there is one thing I don't like it is that they have to be hand washed. Can't put them in the idshwasher.

Dear MonaThis is not the general consideration for cupping.However because it does lift fascia it might indeed have the desired effect

Yes, the stone is designed to work with oil. It is a little too rough without it. However, you could probably use water, but I don't think that you would get a very good edge.

I totally suggest to read up on a cupping set and how to use them. Cuppings and the acupuncture pointers are two different things with two different objectives. You can attach the acupuncture pointers to the bottom of any of the cuppings. The point is for acupunture, like the bottoms of your feet can pinpoint allergens while the your hand can trigger your liver. There are thousands of trigger points, so use acupunture correctly, otherwise, it can do harm.

I honestly don't remember. I have so much leftover stuff thst I csnt be certsin however even if the needles do no come with the package the syringe is small enough to fit into the hole at the top. With that bring said I think that the needles are included. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask

I would definitely be upset and contact the seller as well!! I don't know if the needles would become dull but I would be concerned that some had become bent. I bent needle can cause damage to your skin. I'm hoping it came in the sterilized package?

I bought this item for someone and it's been too long to remember, for sure, but, I believe that it did come with a needle. Sorry that I can't give you more than a "definite maybe". I can tell you that it's a good, durable product. I would buy> Good luck.

Water, don't listen to bambulr he has no idea obviously, if you use them dry they will wast away to nothing in just a few uses and you will never take advantage of how sharp they will make your knives, the water creates a slurry with the stone powder your scrape off, creating a very fine sharpening medium, learn up on how to use a waterstone. These stones are a great beginners kit at a great price, get them, also get a mount so you can use them in the sink. I also got a cheap diamond plate, I use this first to de-burr and take any nicks out, then use the water stones to fine finish.

Doubt it, when I ordered this kit it came with a bunch of mixed up stuff in a bag not the right needles even. Good luck

Yes, but don't buy it. It will make you break out and is very cheap. Go ahead and spend the money and get a good set.

Yes they are interchangeable between sets. If you want to try a few of the different needles, they have a starter set with a pair of bamboo tips, short lace tips and turbo tips. It comes with needle tips and cord.
