This stone is of higher medium hardness and fine, with good sharpening response and speed. It will not form its own suspension, so we recommend using nagura to speed up the polishing of the knives. Conversely, black metal waste will quickly build up when you sharpen your blade on stone. With the appropriate patience and technique, the stones leave a shiny, refined kasumi on both the soft laminate and the hard core steel.
The blade is aggressive and perfect for kitchen knives. This stone also works well with carpentry tools, e.g. for chisels and planes and is an excellent pre-finishing razor prep.
The Yamashiro Honba Umegahata Suita Japanese Sharpening Finishing Stone will do the job perfectly. No toxic lines.
