Tormek Japanese Waterstone has a grit size of 4000 and provides a mirror-like finish with hardly visible grind marks. This fine surface polishes the edge and creates the ultimate surface finish. If you desire razor-sharpness, this sharpening stone is for you!
This stone is ideal for sharpening hand tools such as wood carving tools, knives, scissors, plane blades, and chisels, which require minimal steel removal and superior sharpness.
The stone's unique composition gives it an extremely long lifespan. Since it provides such a fine surface, we recommend that you do not hone on the leather honing wheel afterwards.
You should clean the surface of the sharpening stone from fine steel particles approximately once a minute. This is done with the fine side of the stone dresser SP-650. Do not use the coarse side of the stone dresser on the Tormek Japanese Waterstone.
Fits Tormek T-8, Tormek T-7, and earlier Tormek models with a 250 mm stone. For smaller Tormek models, see Tormek Japanese Waterstone SJ-200.
