Product information for Shun 1000/6000 Grit Whetstone for Japanese Knife Sharpening
Maintain your Japanese knives' legendary sharpness with the Shun Combination Whetstone, featuring dual 1000 and 6000 grit surfaces for complete edge care. The coarse 1000-grit side efficiently sharpens dull blades and begins the polishing process, while the ultra-fine 6000-grit side creates a mirror finish and razor-sharp edge perfect for precision cutting. This traditional water stone requires brief soaking before use, developing a natural sharpening slurry that enhances the polishing action. Designed specifically for high-carbon stainless steel blades like those in Shun collections, this whetstone delivers the professional-grade sharpness chefs demand. Regular use not only extends your knives' lifespan but ensures they slice through ingredients with minimal effort, enhancing both safety and performance in your kitchen. Whether you're maintaining a single chef's knife or an entire collection, this versatile combination stone provides everything needed for professional results at home. Investing in quality sharpening tools protects your knife investment and transforms your culinary experience.
