Review: Good quality stone at reasonable price point. - I've had cheaper whetstones before which were ok I guess but didn't realise till I got this king delux 1200 grit stone along with the 800 grit what these sorts of stones were capable of. I also got a 6000 grit to finish off. The 800 arrived first so started with that on a Japanese style blade with a factory bevil of 10 degrees either side for an inclusive 20 degrees. Never sharpened that low an angle before so looked around and found a set of angle guides which had a 10 in the set. Once I got used to what the angle should feel like I didn't need it any more so went free hand on the 800 stone and oh wow I thought the knife was sharp out of the factory but it put a scalpel like edge on it and then when I put it on the 1200 stone to really dial in the edge and finally polish the edge on the 6000 I didn't know a knife could get so sharp. Sure these stones take a while to get used to and can be time consuming to use properly but it's a cathartic experience and if you appreciate a sharp kitchen knife and like the idea of doing something in a traditional way it's worth looking into a set of these stones. Sure there are more expensive stones out there but at this price point they are a good option for learning on before investing in more expansive stones.
Review: Beautiful stone - Used it today as part of the process of thinning and sharpening a vintage Sabatier cleaver. It's preformance was faultless, cut's quickly with excellent feel and feedback. I am a expert sharpener and worked professionally as a togoshi (Japanese sword polisher) so have a good selection of quality stone's. I am happy to add this to the pile, and therfore happy to highly recommend it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the dimensions shown accurate? Someone else said their stone's thickness was much less**
A: the dimensions on the stone i recieved was 8 1/8 in by 2.5in by 1 3/8in

**Q: Is it ok to leave the stone soaked on a permanent bases and take it out just before use?”**
A: I have this stone, I left it soaking for a month. Nothing bad happened. 
Might want to  change out the water on a weekly basis though or it will grow scum.

**Q: Is this ideal for usage with an axe or hatchet? Or should I look for a different kind of whetstone?**
A: It can be used to sharpen an axe. But its a pretty fine grit stone for sharpening an axe unless you're refining the edge.
Also the size and weight of the stone can make it a little hard to sharpen an axe. Maybe an "axe puck" or buy the stone and cut it into thirds.

**Q: Does it come with a base to hold the stone?**
A: No just the stone

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spot On, well packaged
*by T***N on 13 October 2023*

It is indeed a Japanese King 1200 Grit Stone, but just thought I'd write a review to point out that it arrived very well packaged and no damage to box or product. Seemed worth noting considering the heft of it.
