The Arashiyama series is Imanishi's benchmark finishing range - designed to produce a clean, refined edge with excellent feedback. At #6000, it sits in the sweet spot between mid-grit polishing and true mirror finishing, making it the ideal final stone for most kitchen knives. The included Nagura stone is used to create a slurry on the surface, which enhances cutting action and helps achieve a consistent finish. Suitable for both carbon and stainless steel blades.
Care and Maintenance
- Splash water on the surface before use - no soaking required for finishing stones
- Use the Nagura stone to raise a slurry for best results
- Keep the stone flat - lap regularly on a flattening stone if needed
- Rinse and dry after use - store in a dry location
