These are traditional natural waterstones, often graded as medium to fine in the approximate range of 800-2000 grit (or up to mid-grit like ~4k in some classifications for harder upper-mid examples). They are known for producing a smooth, detailed kasumi (cloudy\/misty) finish on blades, with good feedback and speed for natural stones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"video-container\"><iframe title=\"Ueno medium Japanese sharpening whetstone\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_OVy3WMI61M?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<ul>\n<li>Suitable for the medium sharpening stage of razors, knives, scissors, carpentry and other tools<\/li>\n<li>Dimensions approx: 210x77x57 mm<\/li>\n<li>Weight: 2270g<\/li>\n<li>Hardness: Lv 4.5<\/li>\n<li>Two halves flat and ready<span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\"><\/span>s work.<\/li>\n<li>Approximately 800 grit<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"featured_media":5637,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[22],"product_tag":[300,377],"class_list":{"0":"post-5635","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-jnats","7":"product_tag-medium","8":"product_tag-ueno","9":"product_shipping_class-iprastas","11":"first","12":"outofstock","13":"shipping-taxable","14":"purchasable","15":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/5635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5635"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=5635"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=5635"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jnats.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=5635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
