Suehiro | Gokumyo GMN150 #15000 Super Fine Finishing Ceramic Whetstone Made in Japan 4966684072114

Experience the smoothness of superb sharpening.
Never deforming or degrading, the “Gokumyo” is our ultimate whetstone.

The “Suehiro Gokumyo Series” is made with our unique combination of ultra-fine abrasives and binders. Our fired ceramic whetstones, while taking full advantage of the properties of ultra-fine abrasives, overcome the drawbacks of conventional natural and resin based whetstones, which could lose their hardness due to temperature changes or when immersed in water, and which could suffer surface degradation and cracking. The abrasives have been enhanced from #13,000 (1.0 micron) to #20,000 (0.5 micron), resulting in a whetstone giving a smooth, superbly sharp edge, far exceeding the synthetic stones which came before.
Enjoy the experience of superb refinement and sharpening.

■ How to Use
This whetstone has a dense concentration of ultra-fine air pockets and can be used immediately by lightly wetting it. Before use, either briefly submerge it in water or wet the surface by hand, then begin sharpening. Under normal conditions (seasonal temperature changes, immersion in water) there is no risk of quality loss; it can be used like conventional kiln-fired whetstones.
・To maintain sharpening ability, clean the stone with water and restore the surface with the included restoration stone after each use.
