Maxi Prosharp double-sided Whetstone 2000/10000 + 5 accessories

The Prosharp 2000/10000 maxi Sharpening stone is recommended for caring for very rigid knives, such as certain Japanese knives.

Its imposing dimensions (20x8x3cm) enable you to use it on a wide range of knives, even the largest, such as chef's knives, carving knives... This is a plus compared to standard-sized stones.

Detail of Prosharp maxi stone faces:

- 2000 grit blue face: these already very fine grit can be used in two ways. Firstly, you can use this face to finish your medium HRC knives, giving them a razor-sharp edge. Secondly, it can be used as a stepping stone for very stiff knives, to gently pick up the edge and then reach even higher grit.

- White face 10000 grit: extreme edge finish, even on the hardest knives. You simply reveal their true cutting potential. This face will have no impact on knives with low rigidity, as their alloy will not be able to withstand such a finish.

The stone comes with several practical accessories! Here's a complete sharpening set:

- 1 large base with integrated hook to secure the stone's base when in use, and prevent it from moving. Its large surface also collects the water and black filings that will result from sharpening. So you don't get it everywhere.

- 1 stone base. This is placed on the wide base as previously mentioned. The whole thing is stable, for ease of use. What's more, the inside of the base is lined with silicone to reduce the risk of breakage during handling.

- 1 sharpening guide. It slides onto the back of the blade (you can put a paper towel between it and the blade if you're afraid of scratching it) and allows you to maintain the right angle for sharpening the edge of your knife.

- 1 levelling stone to maintain the surface of your main stone, which can become hollow with use. The small stone is passed over the surface of the main stone to level out the grit and restore a straight surface.

- 1 water bulb to keep your stone moist, even after soaking before use. If you notice that the surface is starting to dry out, use the bulb to moisten it again.

Tips: The Prosharp maxi Sharpening stone is used with water, so you need to submerge it for about 15 minutes before use. Once you've finished using it, you can let it air-dry (direct sunlight is not permitted) and then wipe it dry with a soft brush.
