The Naniwa Chosera 2000 whetstone uses magnesia as binder for the abrasive, in this case white aluminium oxide.

The Chosera stones do not soak up any water so the stones do not need to be sprinkled with water frequently. This makes Chosera stones rather easy to sharpen with. Because of their hardness you will not cut into the stone easily and sharpening with these stones will take less time. Their hardness make them a good choice for knives made from hard steel.

Splash with water before and during sharpening, do not soak or store in water.

Grit: 2000

Measurements: 210 X 70 X 25 mm

Fixed on plastic baseplate with non-skid rubber feet

About grit sizes
Whetstones come in various grit sizes. The higher the number, the finer the grit. A finer grit results in a sharper knife. Sharpening a really dull knife on a fine grit will take much time, so you will need to treat it on a coarser grit first.

• 120 - 600: Appropriate when real dull knives need to be brought back in the right shape
• 800 - 1,000: Appropriate to sharpen knives that were already in a reasonable state
• 2,000 - 3,000: For a result sharper than most knives are when they leave the factory
• 5,000 - 12,000: To polish the knife and get a razor sharp edge

Remarks pertaining to Chosera sharpening stones
During manufacture, Chosera sharpening stones are bound with magnesium. This superior production method guarantees superb results. However, these magnesium-bound stones are more prone to developing hairline cracks. To prevent this from occurring, it is important NOT to use too much water when wetting Chosera sharpening stones. So Chosera stones should NEVER be left to soak in water for a prolonged period of time! It is also important to dry these stones thoroughly after use and store them in a dry, dark place.

Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. I had been recently acquired a Chosera 5000 grit. And used for use as a faint slip stone of unknown make, origin and properties. This stone purchased simultaneously with the very expensive Chosera 10. 000 grit. 2:5:10 finish the series and then the noose. All this applied to superior Japanese Aogami Super Steel with 65 HRC is amazing! Nice that this product is delivered in the Netherlands and in Japan I / via the USA, have to buy.

Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. I have several Japanese water stones, I actually found the transition from grain to grain 3000 to 1000 large. Grinding grain for 3000, it took a little longer so it goes. But with 2000 grit abrasive will be decreased, and also will be spared 3000 grit stone. As usual, a good and fast service Knivesandtools.

Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. Expensive stone, but its money well spent. I have the main water stones (400 and 2000) of the highest quality made this because I use most and so they have the most abuse. You get a nagura bit. The stone is glued into the holder, but it is happy with good rubber feet.

Product shipped on:	28 June 2010
Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. This review applies to the 400, 800 and 2000 grit. Initially I had chosen 400, 1000 and 3000 grit. But after watching the movies on this site and followed the advice for the 400, 800 and 2000 selected. The size of the grain is better identified by the color of the stone. Grinding is fantastic assets I have never had such beautiful polished cuts. There is still a stone in 5000 came. Personally I believe that it is better than dry stone grind (Spyderco Sharp Maker). Slide easily and less quickly when you just scratch the mistake. First bit of practice to have the right angle between this saves quite a broad and a narrow blade. I have a small piece of wood 20 degree for myself the right angle measurement for grinding, then you can feel your fingers on the corner. Watch a while the movies on this site. You put in what always on.

Review from www.edenwebshops.de. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. grip "hard" bound stone conveys a good sense of grinding, fast good removal in the grinding object, instantly ready for use. Water on the stone and there you go. If Eden webshop would now order the stone still in Japan without the base, there would be additional points. The opportunity would certainly, as a competitor, even without the Super Stone base (especially in Japan ordered) offers.
