Tools and Hardware Reviews of Suehiro D1069 Deluxe Japanese Stone #1200

Customer Review: Good edge, useful as a finishing stone
Summary: 4 Stars

This was my first Japanese waterstone.

Some things I didn't realize before I purchased:
1) It's recommended that the stone is kept immersed in water during storage. Otherwise, soak it for 15 minutes in water before use.

2) It's much softer than a traditional whetstone.

3) Honing oil will destroy it.

4) It's much larger than I expected (good).

My first test was on a Mora knife of 57 HRC (advertised). There was quite a bit of slurry produced in the initial sharpening. Unfortunately, the Mora had shipped with a edge burr that was not easily removed with this stone. I went back to a traditional 800 grit stone and removed the burr, then went back and finished with the Japanese waterstone. It gave a very good edge, probably as good as a higher grit with a traditional stone.

I also used it on some Wenger SAKs and it performed well.

Description of Suehiro D1069 Deluxe Japanese Stone #1200

To achieve a surgically sharp edge on your tools, nothing works faster or better than Japanese water stones. The abrasive slurry produced on top of the stone cuts aggressively and polishes the blade as it sharpens. If you've never tried sharpening with water stones before, you'll be astounded by the results. Size: 8-1/8" L x 2-1/2" W x 1-3/8" T, Grit: 1200.
