Review on πŸ”ͺ Enhance your blade's precision with Whetstone Sharpening SHAPTON Ceramic KUROMAKU by Bill Howard

Great Product!: Power & Hand Tools

I love Shapton Stones. They cut well, don't collect shavings, use water as a lubricant, and are hard enough that you don't have to re-smooth them every time you first straighten them. The supplied plastic box is perfect for storage, unlike the cardboard box, which tends to mold due to water residue in the stones. The color coding makes it very easy to see which stone you have, even after the markings have worn off. It's awesome. I don't think there is a BEST line of sharpening/buffing stones on the market, but there may be others that are just as good.
