Naniwa Chocera Pro Stone 1000 Grit

This grit is great for starting a somewhat sharp edge and refining rougher edges. The texture is rough enough to cut steel quickly but smooth enough to give a shaving edge that can easily be polished on finer stones. A 1000 grit stone is an essential stone for any knife sharpener – and the Naniwa Professional series, is one of the best available.

When to use this stone:

• Cuts steel quickly and no soaking is required, just splash and go.
• Excellent for touching up western and hard-working Japanese knives that you want a stronger edge.
• Not the ideal stone for knife thinning, the 1000 grit is a little hard, but possible to get a very nice finish with a bit of practice. To achieve a nice Kasumi finish the Knifewear 1000 grit stone is ideal.
• If you believe in “Buy it once”, this is the stone for you.

Always flatten your stone with a truing stone after sharpening.
