Description

A few words about Suehiro:

He's a Japanese specialist in professional sharpening stones, which he wants to be practical and durable. To achieve this, he manages every stage in the manufacture of his stones, from research and development to actual production. First, the ingredients are mixed and stirred in large vats. Each stone is then shaped into a rectangle using a press, and left to dry for a short time. They are then fired, and a craftsman passes the stones over a grinding wheel to ensure a clean finish. Finally, quality control is carried out.

How to use your stone :

The Ouka 3003 small Sharpening stone features, as its name suggests, a #3000 grit. This fine grit is recommended for giving a well-polished finish to the edge of your favorite knives.

Its smaller size than its counterpart, the Ouka 3000 stone, makes it more suitable for domestic use.

It is mounted on a non-slip base with two raised feet, which ensure stability when in use.

Before use, it should be soaked in water for 5 to 10 minutes. You can reapply water to the surface of the stone during sharpening, when you feel it's necessary. You can do this directly by hand, or with a pipette for greater precision.

After a few moments' use, you'll notice a small colored sludge forming on the surface of the stone, and this is perfectly normal. This "sludge" is even essential, as it helps to sharpen the knife, so don't clean it during the process.

In addition, a small Nagura stone (approx. 6.6 x 1.5 x 1.4 cm) is supplied with the main stone. This small, brick-colored model is used to create the famous slurry that facilitates the stone's action.

When you've finished, you can rinse the surface you've used and clean it with a small, soft brush. Wipe with a dry cloth, then leave to dry in a room at room temperature (do not place in direct sunlight; it should dry naturally, without added heat).

Important: the dimensions of the stone may vary by a few millimetres, and its weight by a few grams, but this is perfectly normal.

Very satisfied
language rating 10
Although I'm not a specialist (it's my first Japanese stone), I was able to use it without any problem. It feels quite soft, so it's pleasant to the touch. A little material is removed, but not too much. The "small model" size was no problem for a 17 cm santoku. The finish is really polished. I think it's perfect for maintaining the edge of a knife in good condition.
Good stone

Bought for regular maintenance of Japanese knives and other less carbonized knives. Very satisfied with first use, this small stone was a great discovery, enabling me to prepare the larger stone.

A very fine stone, to be paired with coarser grit for more damaged blades.
beautiful object, and gets the job done!

Combine with other stones with a lower grain and you'll have razor-sharp knives every time. A must to accompany your Japanese knives! The item also looks elegant, making you look like a real pro!

My stone arrived a little broken, although it was nothing serious. Good product.
