Review: Great stone - I was impressed by the quality of the stone and by the packaging. This is the first stone I have from this brand and I will totally buy more. Easy to use and doesn't require much maintenance. My VG10 knife is razor sharp now
Review: AS GOOD AS THEY'RE MADE OUT TO BE - I previously bought the 2K and 5K to progress my sharpening from a Sharpal 1200 flat diamond plate, ( a good 'starter' platform in fairness), and these Kuromakus are superb. They 'cut' and polish without too much effort...so much so that I bought the 8K. My standard of plane iron and chisel edges are far from professional standards, but you can't argue against true sharpness. A lot of reviews/pundits reckon you don't need to go higher....but I'm looking at the 12K now. Disturbingly addictive in a closet samurai kind of way. Highly recommended although I'm sure I've alread y raved about this one .

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I just received my stone and it is not clear if you only use one side or if both sides can be used? One side has writing and the other side does not.**
A: I use the unwritten side because I like to see the writing unscathed. BUT......  it makes no difference which side one uses.

**Q: Is this the same stone as the shapton kuromaku professional series 8000?**
A: It is the Kuromaku 0710 stone, sold elsewhere on Amazon for much more, but appears to be the same product. I bought this one and am very happy with it, although most knives do not need this fine a polish. Note that this is not the 50203 model of the Shapton Glass Stones, which does cost more. I personally feel the Kuromaku line is as reliable as the Shapton Glass line.

**Q: What is the particle size of this stone?**
A: The approximate Dimensions & Product Data:

Grit size: 8000
Dimensions: 210x70x15mm
Weight: 500g

**Q: Will this work to finish a super steel such as magnacut, or is the abrasive not hard enough?**
A: Yea the Shapton 8K will work on ANY steel. A few things. Are you using this 8K as your finish stone? And your not in a hurry. A hard steel if very dull i would start on a diamond plate. Then work my way up. If you finish on this stone you will have a nice mirror polished edge.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing whetstones
*by N***K on 5 May 2023*

I purchased a range of grits from 1000 to 8000 (i need the 12000 next, but at £74, my budget is a little stretched this week, but will be purchased too). I'd previously bought the cheaper stones available on amazon and they were just not up to the job - barely able to cut into hardened steel and left a very patchy surface as whatever is in them lacks consistency with the composite inside them. Using the Shaptons has been eye opening. They cut evenly, quickly, consistently and cleanly through hardened steel and are worth every penny. The case is perfect as a temporary work stand, they require very little water and have to be one of the best investments i've made in regards to making blades. I couldn't be happier with them. Fantastic product, delivered remarkably quickly too
