Product description Shapton waterstones are made with finely-graded ceramic cutting media which wears much more slowly than aluminum oxide and silicon carbide commonly found in other man-made waterstones. This results in a similar thickness of sharpening material lasting much longer. The Shapton Professional Series media is very dense and does not absorb water. This avoids the need to maintain them in water or waiting for them to soak prior to use. Shapton uses a binding matrix which is carefully engineered to reveal sharp new cutting media for efficient stock removal while retaining some of the worn media which provides a simultaneous polishing effect. This balance results in a better edge with less effort. Well suited for sharpening a wide range of hard steels used in woodworking tools, kitchen knives and straight razors. Shapton's Professional Series are competitively priced, long-wearing, require less flattening, no soaking, and cut quickly. Legal Disclaimer May be subject to VAT/GST/Duty.
