Best Nagura Stone I've Seen

Too bad it's from a closed mine - I'm very glad I got it while it lasts. I've found my other Nagura Stones amazing, but this one is far superior. Such a smooth, silky texture. And I think it will last my whole life.

Pros
  • Easy to Use
Cons
  • Short Instructions

Essential for deep sharpening

I have 3 glass stones (1000, 4000 and 8000) and take very good care of them. It helps condition and smooth my stones. As far as is known, these Nagura Stones are no longer mined and are becoming rare and expensive.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Will last a lifetime.

I was pleasantly surprised by the weight of this little stone! The packaging is simple and practical. However, the stone has a beautiful color. It feels fantastic in your hands and produces very plush suspension. After several hours of use on several knives, nothing has changed. I'd say I'd buy another one, but I don't think I need to!

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember
