Curiosity

Today there is a huge variety of sharpening stones on the market. Sometimes it is therefore difficult to distinguish between good and bad quality.

The question that often comes up is: which stone to choose for a good quality/price ratio?

This stone is made for one of the largest and most reputable whetstone manufacturers in Japan. However, as you can see in the photos, they are not stamped, so this allows us to offer you a very good quality product at a very reasonable price.

The 400 grit stone is used to repair small chips or to recreate the edge on duller blades.
