Product information
The Japanese sharpening stone manufacturer Naniwa from Osaka produces arguably the best whetstones.
NANIWA Sharpening Stones are significantly harder than King stones and slightly harder than Cerax stones, yet noticeably softer than Shapton stones. Despite their hardness, they give the impression of sharpening on a soft stone. The material removal on the blade is perceived almost sensually. This is one of the secrets of Naniwa stones: they create the pleasant feeling of sharpening on a soft stone while hiding the fact that they are actually hard. You only realize this later when you find out that they hollow out slowly.
The Naniwa stones unveil their special strength in the fine area. No other stone achieves such fine edges.
Since sharpening stones need to be regularly dressed because only a flat surface can provide a precise sharpening result, you should also take a look at our sharpening stone dressing blocks.
Note on a name change at Naniwa: The Super Stone series has been renamed to the Advance series. The properties of the stones remain unchanged.
