This stone is great for any kitchen professionals first stone. The rough 1000 grit side will help to realign your edge, while the 6000 grit polishing side will give you a very smooth cutting edge for an effortless slice.

Our stones are "Splash and go" stones they don't need to be soaked before use.

Japanese whetstones (also called water stones) – both natural and synthetic – are known for their quick-working qualities, not only for Japanese blades, but also for their Western equivalents. The small particles that do the cutting/sharpening are loosely bound together in the stone. During sharpening with the whetstone, the surface particles are quickly washed out, allowing new, sharp, particles to start working on the blade. These whetstones must be lubricated only with water! Never use oil or other lubricants!

DESCRIPTION

FAQ

What’s the difference between carbon steel and stainless steel?

Carbon steel offers exceptional sharpness and edge retention, but requires careful maintenance to avoid rust. Stainless steel is easier to care for and resists corrosion, making it ideal for everyday use.

Is this knife ready to use out of the box?

Can I request custom engraving?

Yes. Laser engraving is available as an optional service. You can add your name, message, or kanji to the blade handle or spine.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, we ship worldwide. All orders are shipped from Japan. Shipping fees, delivery time, and customs may vary depending on your country.

What is your return policy?

Due to the nature of handcrafted items, we do not accept returns based on customer preference. Defective items may be exchanged within 7 days of delivery.

How do I maintain my knife?

Wipe dry after use. Avoid acidic ingredients. Hand wash only with neutral detergent. Do not use dishwashers. For carbon steel, apply oil to prevent rust.

Yes. Repair and sharpening services are available for MUSASHI Pro Members. Handle replacement and blade restoration are also supported.
