Naniwa Chosera 3000 sharpening stone without stand
 |
£ 67.90
The Naniwa Chosera 3000 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.
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
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.
