Whetstone - Fine grit

A large whetstone -  Fine grit #3000

Size: 205 x 75 x 25 mm
Grit #3000

A fine grit stone is used for final edging. It polishes the edge and removes the burr. 3000 grit or more is preferred for finishing the edge. How high you go is up to you but keep in mind that a higher grit leaves you with smaller teeth in the edge structure, giving you less grip on things like tomatoes etc. At cleancut, we prefer to stop at 4000-6000 grit.

Place the stone in water for about 10 minutes prior to sharpening.
