Japanese Natural Whetstone Aiiwatani Namito / Shobudani Tomae Tomo Nagura Set 219g
Description
This is a carefully matched set consisting of an Aiwatani Namito and a Shobudani Tomae Tomo Nagura, ideally suited for straight razors and other small edged tools.
The Aiwatani Namito excels as a pre-finishing stone, offering excellent cutting performance to efficiently refine the edge before the final polishing stage.
In contrast, the Shobudani Tomae produces a fine, consistent slurry, making it an outstanding finishing stone capable of creating a refined, elegant edge.
The combination of the richer slurry produced by the Aiwatani and the finer, more delicate slurry generated by the Shobudani allows for a smooth transition from pre-finishing to final finishing, making this set highly versatile across a wide range of sharpening applications.
Offering an excellent balance of practicality, ease of use, performance, and control, this well-matched set is an outstanding choice for users seeking precision throughout every stage of the sharpening process.
Please note that these are not for beginner sharpeners since they're harder to use.These are natural stones meaning that every single one of them are different so my measured size are not accurate. This is a life time investment for people who lives sharpening their knives and tools, do not hesitate to ask me your questions.
