Japanese Toishi Sharpening Stone #800 for Kings

[Application] Catered specifically for honing sickles, this product excels in maintaining their sharpness.

[Whetstone Selection Guide] 1. Nicks: For initial repairs, opt for a coarse grit stone (ranging from #80 to #400). 2. Dullness: To restore lost edge, select a medium-grit stone (between #700 and #1200). 3. Finishing Touch: For ultimate refinement, choose a finishing stone with a grit of #3000 to #8000.

[Usage Instructions] 1. Prioritize preparation by immersing the whetstone in water for approximately 3 minutes. 2. Secure the stone firmly, holding your knife at a 15-20 degree angle against its surface. 3. When sharpening, a single-edged blade should be primarily (90%) honed on the face and minimally (10%) on the back. For double-edged knives, ensure equal sharpening on both sides. 4. Afterward, lightly touch up the knife's back to remove any burrs left behind.

[Maintenance] As the stone gets indented over time, protect it with waterproof or abrasive papers. Post-use, rinse with water and let it dry in a shaded area. King Deluxe, designed as a versatile grinding wheel for specialized abrasives, guarantees consistent quality and longevity, ensuring your knife stays razor-sharp.
