The 300\/1000 stone handles the first two stages. Use the 300 grit side when a knife has a chip, a rolled edge, or is so dull that a finer stone would take too long. Move to the 1000 grit side to refine the edge after coarse grinding. Follow up with a 6000 grit finishing stone (such as the Shun 1000\/6000 Combination Whetstone) to polish the edge to a razor finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoak the stone in water for 5-10 minutes before use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart with the 300 grit side only if the edge is chipped or very dull\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMove to the 1000 grit side to refine the edge after coarse grinding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen at 16° for Shun knives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep the stone wet throughout - add water as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse and dry the stone after use, store flat to prevent warping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlatten the stone periodically with a leveling stone to maintain a flat surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not use on serrated or single-bevel knives without specialist knowledge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hale Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29776705847374,"sku":"DM0708","price":103.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/dm0708_gallery__432x160_7fea5f1c-8eb2-4444-9407-161c0ab57c23.jpg?v=1578037178","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/shun-300-1000-grit-combination-whetstone","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
