SUEHIRO #1000/#6000 Combo Stone

We recommend this stone to anyone who is purchasing a brand new knife and looking for an affordable sharpening option to maintain the edge of their new knife. The 1000 grit side is effective at removing a small amount of steel, all you will need to do on a brand new knife. After using the #1000 grit side, flip the stone over to polish the edge of the knife on the #6000 grit side and get a silky smooth edge. If you are looking for a stone to sharpen older, more dull knives, we recommend the #320/1000 grit stone. 

All of the whetstones sold at the shop are water stones, do not put oil on any of them, you will ruin your stone. Holding the knife at a consistent angle while sharpening is one of, if not, the most important thing to consider when sharpening; thus, maintaining a flat stone is of equal importance. Pick up a truing stone to maintain a flat stone in order to achieve the best results.
