The stones are identical, just the branding\/name and packaging has changed (again). You may receive the new or old packing as we receive and make the transition to new stock from the factory in Japan. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you want a complete all-in-one sharpening stone solution to get started with, without sacrificing quality and without breaking the bank, this is for you! You get two super high quality stones, 1cm thickness each, permanently bonded together (for strength and convenience). The 1000 is great for starting a new edge, or even for finishing\/maintaining knife where you want a slightly rougher edge (for more \"micro serrations\"), and the 3000 is there to finish off and polish an edge (great for Japanese knives for example). Once you're comfortable with sharpening technique, you could add a 400 grit stone (or any stone between 220 and 500 for example) -- they're inexpensive and you'll find it much quicker and easier to cut in a new edge... removing metal with the 400 grit stones is quite a bit quicker than with the 1000 grit! And if you want to finish off with a very polished edge (or if you're sharpening straight razors), you can add an 8,000, 10,000 or 12,000 grit stone for that final stropping. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ceramic compounds used to manufacture these is also of very high quality, and so they strike a great balance between ability to cut a nice edge without too much work and still being very long-lasting and strong. These are truly excellent sharpening stones, suitable for any serious hobbyist, pro, chef, wood-worker or outdoorsman. Note the nice large size too -- most other cheaper stones you'll see around shops or mail order in North America are smaller and so are more difficult to work with (and will wear out more quickly), especially with kitchen knives where it's nice to have the extra surface area when sharpening a santoku or chef's knife. Made in Japan. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese stones are made by the Resin Bond method, which yields a higher quality stone than the old baked method used with cheaper stones, and it offers good performance compared the much more expensive and fragile Magnesia method stones. Also, a great benefit of this method is that the stones do NOT require soaking in water prior to use (in fact they must NOT be soaked). A quick spray or splash of water is all that is needed and you're ready to go. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty: \u003c\/strong\u003e90 day warranty against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Naniwa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37550966571191,"sku":"NAN-CS-410\/430","price":87.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0507\/3177\/8231\/files\/Naniwa_Super-Stone_Advance_Whetstone_Sharpening_Stone_Dual-Sided_Combo_1000_3000_grit.jpg?v=1769084289"},{"product_id":"shapton-glassstone-500-grit-sharpening-stone-double-thick","title":"Shapton Glass Stone 500 Grit Sharpening Stone, Double Thick","description":"\u003cp\u003eShapton Glass Stone, 500 Grit, \u003cstrong\u003eDouble-Thick\u003c\/strong\u003e, #50106. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e210mm x 70mm, 10mm thick (total thickness is 15mm: \u003cstrong\u003e10mm of abrasive\u003c\/strong\u003e bonded to 5mm glass plate). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes packed in a Pro\/Kuromaku style plastic case which can also double as a basic stand (though a proper \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Naniwa Adjustable Sharpening Stone Stand\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paulsfinest.com\/products\/naniwa-japanese-wetstone-holder-a902\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eheavier holder\u003c\/a\u003e is strongly recommended).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is a special double-thick version of the very popular 500 grit Shapton Glass Stone.\u003c\/strong\u003e If you do a lot of sharpening, this is a great choice to get extra life from this excellent coarse stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShapton GlassStones are very fast cutting and long-lasting.

It's a superb example of a knife made with a high end carbon steel, so it is VERY sharp, it keeps this sharp edge a long time, and it resharpens more easily than most stainless steels.

This high-performance knife features a hammered stain-resistant steel clad over a hard Hitachi Yasugi-works Blue steel cutting core, for excellent sharpness and edge life. The handle is made of beautiful and comfortable sculpted pakkawood for a true wood-like feel and look, but more sealed and moisture resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut remember, \u003cstrong\u003ethis is a true carbon steel knife, NOT stainless\u003c\/strong\u003e, which means you need to use a bit extra care to keep it dry and stored in a dry place to keep it from rusting. Wash by hand, wipe, dry and store after use. It will also stain and discolour somewhat (like a lodge pan or carbon steel crepe pan for example) -- this is normal, so forget about trying to keep a carbon steel knife super shiny. This knife is sharpened 50\/50 and so is fine for right or left handed use. It may appear to have a slight right-side bias, but it's not enough to pose any sort of problem for left-handed use, and can be easily re-profiled by simply doing more honing on the left side when performing normal regular edge maintenance.
