Imanishi is one of Kyoto's most respected sharpening stone producers, with generations of expertise in abrasive materials. The Suihei-Kun #220 uses a coarse grit to quickly remove material from the surface of your whetstones, levelling out any dishing or unevenness caused by regular use. Soak before use to prevent the pores from clogging, and work in a circular or figure-eight motion across the stone surface until flat. A must-have for anyone who takes their edge seriously.
How to Use
- Soak the Suihei-Kun in water for a few minutes before use
- Place your whetstone on a stable surface
- Rub the Suihei-Kun across the whetstone surface in a circular or figure-eight motion

- Rinse both stones and dry after use
