If you are buying a whetstone for the first time, we recommend that you purchase a medium whetstone and a correction whetstone.
🔳Rough whetstone
This whetstone is used when resharpening a blade, to correct rounded or chipped blades.
It's a good idea to keep this with you if you have a knife that is prone to chipping, such as a deba knife.
The number is #220.
🔳Medium whetstone
If there are no major chips, you can simply resharpen it with this whetstone and there will be no problem.
This is a whetstone that is commonly used to sharpen the edge of a blade when it has become dull.
The number is #800.
🔳Finishing stone
This whetstone is used for finishing after sharpening the edge of the blade with the medium whetstone.
This is an important whetstone that determines the final sharpness of the blade.
This whetstone is also used to sharpen the final edge of the blade.
We recommend using it in combination with a medium whetstone.
The number is #3000.
🔳Correction stone
When sharpening, the whetstone will become concave. If you sharpen a knife with a concave whetstone, it will not be possible to sharpen it properly. In order to sharpen the knife properly, it is necessary to keep the surface of the whetstone flat at all times.
To keep the surface of the whetstone flat, use this correction stone to clean the surface.
It can be said that this is an essential item for having a sharp knife.
The number is #100.
*All whetstones are made using the vitrified method.
Please soak in water for about 10 minutes before use. There is no problem if you soak it for a long time.
