This double-faced stone is a true professional at sharpening stainless-steel and carbon knives. The light side handles basic sharpening. The darker, coarse side repairs nicks in the knife's edge and restores the overall shape of the edge. The stone includes a rubber-footed tray that holds pieces steady during sharpening. Product Features: · Double-faced 250/1000 grit allows both rough and medium fine sharpening · Requires no pre-soaking before use · Tray with rubber feet helps ensure steady and accurate sharpening · Made in Japan
