Kai Seki Magoroku Whetstone / 8000

A super high-grit whetstone for a mirror-like finish.

---DETAILS---

A whetstone is considered by many chefs (and us!) to be the best way to sharpen a knife, as it sheds the least amount of metal from a knife while respecting the shape of the blade. Made of hard ceramics, this Japanese-made stone ensures speedy results and does not wear out easily. This is especially important for Japanese knives, which have tapered V-shaped edges. This Kai Seki Magoroku Whetstone has a super-fine 8000 grit to sharpen and smooth a knife's edge to a high spec. With this high grit, your knife may even be sharper than when it was new. The whetstone comes in a protective sleeve with its base providing stability while using.

---BENEFITS---

'If you want your knives to last the longest they can, while performing in top condition, use a whetstone.'
