Once the edge is restored, move to a medium stone (1000 grit) to refine, then finish with a 6000 or 8000 grit stone to polish to a razor edge. The included base and case make this the most practical entry point into whetstone sharpening - the soaking tray, non-slip base, and water reservoir mean everything you need is in one compact kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFill the case top with water to the fill line and soak the stone for 5-10 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlace the stone in the ribbed base - fill the base reservoir with water to keep the stone wet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen at 16° for Japanese knives, 20° for Western knives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the stone wet throughout - add water as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollow with a 1000 grit and finishing stone after use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse and dry after use, store in the case flat to prevent warping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlatten periodically with a leveling stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hale Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40020413218894,"sku":"AP0329","price":84.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/image_e6aeaea9-4932-4a8c-8991-9390b6a017cd.jpg?v=1663589492","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/kai-seki-magoroku-400-grit-whetstone","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
