King NEO ST-2 #800 Japanese Waterstone - for powder & stainless steel - with base

The King Neo Japanese waterstone with #800 grit is a professional tool designed for establishing working sharpness and removing scratches from coarser stones. Manufactured in Japan by the renowned King brand (Matsunaga Stone), it is a great choice for providing the "initial sharpness" ready for working with the tool.

Application:

• For sharpening tools made of powder steel and stainless steel: kitchen knives (including Japanese bunka, nakiri, santoku), scissors, pocket knives, etc.
• For establishing basic sharpness, allowing for efficient work with the tool.
• For restoring working sharpness.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Grit (#800): allows for quickly establishing a basic, sharpened cutting edge, enabling work with the tool as well as further, more precise sharpening.

• Consistent slurry release: the slurry formed during sharpening ensures an even finishing process without the risk of scratching the tip of the blade.

• Increased width: the stone size of 210x73x25mm provides stability at the workbench. The increased width allows for more convenient tool guiding and the use of sharpening guides.
