Aoto Koppa Japanese Natural Toishi Whetstone for Knives and Razors
Quantité:
This exceptional Japanese whetstone was selected and purchased by us directly from Japan, then thoroughly tested and coated with cashew lacquer on sides and back to protect the stone for long term use.
Dimensions/Weight:
140mm (5.51 inches) long × 50mm (1.97 inches) wide × 30mm (1.18 inches) tall, and weighs 375g (0.83 pounds).
Soft Aoto certified as authentic by the Natural Whetstone museum in Kyoto. great trial/travel sized piece to experience a good quality Aoto. The stone is self slurrying with grit rich mud. It makes a perfect jumping point from Synthetic medium grit stones. The Aoto removes those deeper scratches with ease and leaves a consistent base layer of shallow scratches easily removed by most natural finishing stones. Makes a great natural bevel setter and touch up stone as well. Kamisori fit perfectly on this stone but it can be used for knives, razors and tools. Kasumi finish from this softer Aoto is deep, rich and dark Jigane with hazy brighter Hagane.
A photo of the stone's polishing ability on a high quality Japanese kitchen knife is shown.
