Japanese sharpening stones
Amongst many master sharpeners, sharpening knives on Japanese sharpening stones is still one of the most popular sharpening methods. And with good reason! You won't believe how sharp your knives can become if you have never used a good set of Japanese sharpening stones before. It is truly sensational! The Japanese sharpening stones from our Professional collection will make you believe! Whether you have never sharpened a knife before or are an expert at it: these sharpening stones are perfect for those who are only looking for the best, sharpest results.
The Japanese sharpening stones from our Professional collection are water stones. This means you have to submerge them in water a couple minutes before use. This also means that as you use the stone you need to keep it wet by constantly adding water to the surface. As you sharpen your knife you will see a slurry emerge. This slurry is there for a reason! It will sharpen your knife. So keep the following in mind: if you don't use water you won't create a slurry. This means that your sharpening stone will wear out faster and that the sharpening results are not nearly as good as when you do use water!
