Naniwa Japanese Whetstone Holder, Universal, with Centre Support

I was holding my stones on top of a cotton wash cloth, and while it worked it was far from ideal.
This provides the stability and safety to build up confidence when sharpening.

I discovered Paul’s shop by accident. As an experienced knife (kitchen, EDC & woodworking) sharpener, I was shopping to add to my existing tool kits. Although I had already owned a Naniwa Holder, I bought another to go along with the also purchased Shapton Glass Finishing Stone as recommended by Paul as an alternative to the very expensive Shapton Holder. Paul’s pricing, shipping and OA customer service was excellent! I will definitely purchase from him again.

Best price and fast shipping. Great build quality. I use it with my DMT diamond stone. Provides proper elevation for unrestricted access. Not required if you are using the Shaptons. Their supplied base provides good elevation. Don't know how long the plastic will last though, so this becomes a good long term investment.

Holds my ne whetstones firmly and gently. Make sharpening much more comfortable.

Excellent delivery service from Paul's Finest

Awesome - why did I wait so long?!
