Experience the Two-Stage Sharpening System That Keeps Japanese Knives Performing at Their Best

The Shun 1000/6000 Grit Combination Whetstone covers both stages of the sharpening process in a single stone - restoring a dull edge with the 1000 grit side, then refining and polishing it to a razor finish with the 6000 grit side.

The Specs

  • Grit: 1000 (sharpening) / 6000 (finishing)
  • 1000 grit: Removes metal to restore a dull or damaged edge
  • 6000 grit: Refines and polishes the edge to a razor-sharp finish
  • Compatible with: All double-bevel Japanese knives including the full Shun range
  • Origin: Japan

How to Use

  • Soak the stone in water for 5-10 minutes before use
  • Start with the 1000 grit side to restore the edge - sharpen at 16° for Shun knives
  • Move to the 6000 grit side to refine and polish the edge
  • Keep the stone wet throughout sharpening - add water as needed
  • Rinse and dry the stone after use, store flat to prevent warping
  • Flatten the stone periodically with a leveling stone to maintain a flat surface
  • Do not use on serrated or single-bevel knives without specialist knowledge
