Product Details
Made in Japan, the Naniwa Advance 8000 Grit Honing Whetstone takes your knife edges from sharp to ultra-refined – without the need to pre-soak. With an ultra-fine grit of 8000, it achieves a razor-sharp finish on your knives. The stone provides a smooth cutting action and soft tactile feedback, perfect for following up after the Naniwa Advance 5000 Grit Honing Whetstone. Due to its unique resin bonding, this splash-and-go design requires just a quick spray of water rather than lengthy soaking. The generous surface area allows you to maintain perfect control while gently polishing away micro-burrs for an effortlessly smooth cut.
How to Use: Place whetstone on a stable surface. Splash the surface with water, find the angle on your knife blade, and stroke the blade from base to edge along the surface of the stone. Keep track of the exact amount of strokes you make. Repeat for the other side. Please note that this 8000-grit stone must be preceded by honing knives on a stones with a lower grit in order to be effective.
How to Clean: Rinse the stone with water and let it air-dry completely before storing. Do not place in the dishwasher.
