Double-sided sharpening stone Kyoto Yama #1000/#6000

Product description

The Kyoto Yama ST Double-Sided Sharpening Stone is a high-quality Japanese synthetic waterstone designed as a versatile solution for sharpening and finishing blades. It is part of the manufacturer's main line and is intended for both casual users and professionals who demand consistent results, reliability and long service life.

The combination of #1000 / #6000 grits makes it the ideal stone for the complete sharpening process. The #1000 side serves as a medium stone for restoring the edge and removing minor damage, while the #6000 side is designed for fine finishing, smoothing the edge and achieving high cutting performance . This eliminates the need to switch between multiple stones and makes the work smooth and efficient.

The stone is suitable not only for kitchen knives , but also for chisels, planes, scissors and other cutting tools. The balanced hardness ensures good material removal while maintaining control over the blade and at the same time allows for a very fine final result. Stable dimensions and higher weight contribute to comfort and safety when sharpening.
