Review: Some of the best performing water stones PERIOD - Some of the best synthetic water stones you can buy and priced more than fairly for how good these stones are! These stones have superb performance, they last a very long time, don't dish quickly, cut very quickly, leave a beautiful finish and leave incredible edge quality. I personally prefer kuromakus over Chosera I prefer the feel and cutting performance of the kuromakus over them. Due to how quickly these stones cut you can do a 3 stone progression and cover 95% of your kitchen knife needs with those three stones and that's a 320, 1500, 5k. With that progression most of your needs will be covered by those three stones. That's damage correction and light reprofiling as well as a toothy finish stone for knives that mainly are for cutting proteins with the 320, a fantastic mid grit stone with the 1500 that leaves a sticky sharp edge but with some bite remaining and makes a perfect edge for vegis as well as for cutting proteins (I prefer it over the 1k or 2k) to a mirror polished very fine edge at 5k that's excellent for cutting delicate fish proteins and other delicate items where you want very high keenness for slicing performance and push cutting performance. That doubles as a great 3 stone setup for pocket and outdoors knives, the 5k isn't needed for pocket folding knives and outdoors knives unless you want the mirror edges as the 320 is perfect for toothy edges and the 1500 is perfect for edges where you want more keenness but with still good bite. These stones are truly excellent performers and extremely good values! Lots of kuromaku videos on YouTube@diamondcutsteel really showing the excellent performance of these stones from simple carbon kitchen knife steels like all the way up to high performance modern powder steels being sharpened on these incredible stones.
Review: What can one say, they are ideal... - If you are new to knife sharpening or even a pro with plenty of experience, you cannot go wrong with these stones in your arsenal. Whether you are looking for a whetstone, ceramic, or glass. The various grits, and SHAPTON offers plenty of them, are considered to be accurate. They range from grit capable of reshaping the blade all the way through putting a mirror finish. I will caution you here? Since SHAPTON makes a variety of stones, do not skip out and follow the instructions on preparing the stones, breaking in the stones, cleaning the stones, 'fixing'; the stones, storing the stones, (you get the idea). The directions for all this? As these are stones from Japan where knife sharpening is an art form, they are written in Japanese. You can find the English translated version on the internet or contact SHAPTON directly to have them available. If you are wanting quality stones and paying the price for them, you need to keep them ready. These are not the most expensive stones out there, but if you're in the market for stones that will work and get quality knife edges right off the stone itself, then you need to start here. The stones are ideal but take a lot of care to ensure they work as advertised and will last. Your only issue here is finding the correct stones to start with. As I mentioned, SHAPTON has a number of stones available and although having the full range available, to start, you only require two or three. And then progress from there. Good stones, good quality, good reputation, and functional as well. Not a bad investment for above high-quality standards

These sharpening and polishing stones are fantastic. I wouldn't expect anything less from Japanese stones. They are definitely not copies; although I could be wrong, I don't think so.
