The fineness of this high-density natural whetstone is approximately equal to that of synthetic #8000. If you want to speed up the work before each sharpening session, it is recommended to use a Nagura stone or diamond plate to form a slurry, and use water as a lubricant for better sharpening feedback. Ohira Koyama Imanishi can work successfully without these "dances with drums".
There is no need to soak Japanese whetstones. Simply apply water to the surface when ready to use. When finished, rinse and let dry at room temperature. Do not leave in water.
