3000/8000 Grit Whetstone

The 3000/8000 combo grit whetstone is both a knife sharpening stone and a finishing stone. It's a great way to sharpen your dull knives, to repair chipped edges and for a silky smooth finishing.

The #3000 grit side is a great middle grit soaking stone and coarse enough to bring a dull knife back to life. It's the perfect stone to touch up an edge when a full sharpening progression isn't needed.

The #8000 side will take your edge up to screaming sharp territory. With the right hand pressure and some patience this stone will take you to a mirror polish. The #8000 stone readily builds up a beautiful slurry, has wonderful feedback, cuts fast and stays flat a long time; it's very effective with any type of steel.
