3000/8000 grit from Naniwa
The 3000/8000 combo is used to put a mirror finish on a knife after using foundation stones e.g. a 400 and 1000 grit. This combo stone makes a good companion for a Stone Explorer set as a complete and very effective sharpening kit.
Naniwa Sharpening Stones
This series of sharpening stones from Naniwa are made from the same high quality grit as the PRO series but made from a softer resin with slightly less grit for those on a budget.
These stones are made from tightly packed resin bonded grit and have the following advantages:
- No pre soaking required - simply splash some water on the surface and start sharpening
- Faster cutting than regular stones
- Longer lasting - about twice as long as regular stones
- Much less mess than “cement” type stones
The Naniwa Sharpening Stone series ranges from 220 to 12000 grit and are all made via the same resin bonded process to give a consistent “feel” through the sharpening process
N.B. Please do not soak this stone for long periods as it will degrade the stone. Also these stones have no plastic base like our previous series but you can purchase a sturdy rubber base here.
