Review on Norton Japanese Style Combination Waterstone 8 Inch by Elijah Balzarini

Norton 24336 Reversible Waterstone is an essential tool for the razor hobbyist who also wants to sharpen their own blades. The double stones provide the two levels of grit needed to bring the razor to a fine edge, ready for honing. The stone comes with its own storage container which also doubles as a holder/reservoir for the water you use with the stone. I've always had great success with stone in the past, but sadly I lost my old one in the chaos of life. my house, so I ordered a new one. I expect the same excellent performance. Nita makes me rate it 4 stars instead of 5: Norton doesn't offer a strong Stone package. Mine arrived with one end of the plastic container ripped into pieces. Luckily, Norton covers the stone himself with foam so no permanent damage occurs. Instead of wasting time replacing the stone, I just superglue the small broken part. It doesn't do anything other than hold water, so it's a minor issue.
