It is ideal for coarse sharpening and fine honing of your knives, crafted from premium materials for long-lasting quality - storage box 25.2 x 9.4 x 5 cm. This versatile sharpening stone is perfect for sharpening kitchen knives and other... morecutting tools. Its double-sided structure allows for both efficient grinding and precise polishing. For best results, soak the stone in water for 5-10 minutes before use to ensure complete saturation. This is essential for effective sharpening. Then place the stone on a non-slip surface and begin the sharpening process. Start with the coarse side (grit 400) for pre-sharpening and then switch to the finer side (grit 1000) for a smooth, sharp finish. Hold the knife at an angle of about 15 degrees to the stone. Known for its expertise in traditional Japanese blacksmithing, KAI combines timeless design with modern technology to deliver products of unparalleled quality and durability. The sharpening stone embodies the dedication to Japanese tradition.

The back of the saucer has synthetic rubber ribs that prevent it from slipping and allow for stable work. It has a groove to catch the water (sweeping liquid) on the whetstone, so it won't stain your kitchen. After use, the whetstone can be drained and dried while still set in the holder.
