Japanese water whetstone 400/1000

This water-based sharpening stone is designed to quickly restore sharpness and precision to your blades.

Its dark side, with 400 grit, is suitable for coarse sharpening of dull knives, while the light side, with 1000 grit, gives a fine, precise edge.

Easy to use, it runs on water: the weakly bonded grain is gradually removed, leaving new abrasive grains for constant, effective sharpening. The stone comes with a stable base for safe, comfortable use.

Use and care

• Immerse the stone in water for 10 minutes before sharpening.

• Place it on a stable surface or on its base, and place the blade on the stone at an angle of approximately 15°.

• Move the blade evenly back and forth, exerting light pressure, then alternate sides of the blade, using the same number of strokes.

• Rinse blade and stone thoroughly after use to maintain their efficiency and longevity.
