Shapton Professional Kuromaku 5000 Grit Sharpening Stone

4 items left

Shapton Kuromaku Professional Whetstone, 5000 Grit, #K0704

210mm x 70mm, 15mm thick. 

These Kuromaku/Professional series stones are very fast cutting and long-lasting, offering nice sharpening feedback while still being very hard so they resist dishing nicely. Note that these are splash-and-go, so do not soak these stones.

These stones come in a convenient plastic case that also doubles as a stone holder, though the affordable Naniwa universal/adjustable stone holder also works fine for these stones and will certainly be more stable and secure.

Made in Japan. 

Be sure to check out the Shapton FAQ.

Great results

This stone can make the edge of a blade look better (polished shine) and potentially sharper too.

Very nice piece of stone

After using 1000 grit stone I just finish it with the 5000 grit and this stone makes the blade sharper
Great product
