Excellent Whetstone

After trying a variety of stones, these are my favorite, and the workhorse of my sharpening kit. Eventually, I will have only kuromaku stones. The don't require soaking after intial setup, have a nice feel, work quickly, and are easy to flatten.

I was surprised how annoyed I was with the messy swarf left behind by diamond and oil stones. I prefer a stone that can easily be lubricated and washed with water.

The best manmade waterstones

After 20+ years of using various brands of water stones, as well as natural water stones, I believe Shapton's Hanokuromaku Water stones are the best.
The cut fast, leave an excellent finish, and wear slowly.

Great splash and go stones

These cut pretty fast and don’t need soaking before use. I just wet them down right before using. They also are slightly harder so don’t dish as fast as some others that I’ve had (King and Norton). Still need flattening just less often. Overall really happy with them, especially for a traveling kit.
