NANIWA Lobster Knife Whetstone, 210x65x20mm, #8000, QA-0080

The case doubles as a whetstone stand for convenient storage. Can be combined to suit various purposes. Replace as needed. The grit size (# number) indicates the coarseness of the whetstone. The smaller the number, the stronger the cutting power, and the higher the number, the sharper the blade. Generally, the order of use is coarse whetstone → medium whetstone → finishing whetstone. Whetstones are sufficient for daily maintenance, but sharpening with the coarse whetstone first will result in an extremely sharp blade. Compensates for the lack of grit in the BASE series. Softer grit for a crisp, crisp sharpening. Lobster Square Whetstone for Knives
