Hideriyama Natural Stone

Dimensions: 205 x 80 x 40 mm
Weight: 1500 g

An exclusive Hideriyama natural stone in a beautiful beige tone, in perfect condition with clear original stamps. This stone comes from the famous quarries in the Kyoto region and is known for its consistent structure, high density, and refined feel during sharpening.

Hideriyama stones fall within the medium to fine polishing range, making them ideal for kasumi finishes and the final polishing of traditional Japanese knives. This stone is easy to use and provides precise feedback during sharpening, with the ability to create a distinct kasumi contrast between jigane (soft iron) and hagane (hard steel).

The stone’s generous size (205 x 80 x 40 mm) and weight (1500 g) make it stable and comfortable to work with, even during longer sharpening sessions.

Origin: Hideriyama, Kyoto, Japan.
