Si vous recherchez une rétention de pointe à long terme, cette pierre Arashiyama grain 6000 est une pierre parfaite pour finir vos couteaux en acier au carbone. Cette pierre sert de « tremplin » si vous prévoyez d'amener vos couteaux à un grain de 8000, 10000 ou 12000. Une fois que vous avez mis l'acier sur la pierre, il est facile de comprendre pourquoi l'Arashiyama 6000 a une excellente réputation parmi les aiguiseurs professionnels au Japon. Cette pierre nécessite une pierre Nagura pour maintenir ses performances.

Quand utiliser cette pierre

  • Idéal pour donner un tranchant de travail solide à votre couteau japonais fabriqué en acier Shirogami ou Aogami.
  • Pierre tendre, très facile à utiliser pour le polissage du cœur et le contraste. Excellente pour l'amincissement des couteaux à biseau large / les couteaux avec un Kireha prononcé.
  • Idéal pour affûter les outils spécialisés ainsi que vos couteaux de cuisine japonais.
  • Si vous souhaitez passer à une pierre de grain plus élevé, c'est un excellent point intermédiaire.
  • Trempez très brièvement avant utilisation, excellent pour les aciers au carbone japonais. C'est une pierre assez tendre, soyez vigilant quant à votre angle pour éviter de la rayer.

Sharpening knives can be one of the most satisfying and fun skills to learn and do. Whether you’re an old hand at sharpening, or just starting out, we want to give you a few tips to help you get the most out of your water stones. If you have any questions about care or technique, please feel free to get in touch, our contact information is below.

Waterstone tips:

  • Use plenty of water. Periodically splash your stones with water as you use them to prevent the stone from plugging up with residue.
  • Some stones require soaking in water for about 20 minutes prior to use, others only require a splash of water while sharpening. Knifewear brand stones tell you what they require on the package. A good way to tell which a stone requires is to splash it with water, if the stone immediately sucks up all the water on it, soak it. If it
    pools on top don’t soak it.
  • Stones take on steel residue with use. A small Nagura stone can help clean the surface like an eraser.
  • Use a truing stone to keep the stone surface flat. Softer stones might require this before every sharpening session. This will help you to maintain the correct angle for sharpening, which is critical for creating the best knife edge.
  • We suggest lightly beveling the edges of the stone with a truing stone to avoid cutting yourself, and to prevent chips from coming off.
  • In dry climates, certain stones can be vulnerable to cracking if they dry too quickly. To avoid this, wrap these stones in a damp tea towel and allow to dry more slowly. These include the Knifewear 4000 and 8000, as well as the Naniwa Professional series.

Important!

  • Do not keep stones in direct sunlight, extreme heat or cold
    (e.g. Inside a car in winter) and avoid dropping them.
  • Always wipe excess water off from the stone before storing.
  • Never ever use oil on a water stone. It will ruin it.
  • Have fun!

    Great finishing stone

    "Excellent splash and go finishing stone. Silky with right amount of toothiness."

    — Jake N. (5/5)

    Sweet sweet kasumi

    "Ordered one from Amazon and it turned smashed. Ordered from here and it arrived double bubble-wrapped. If you’re reading this you’re probably here for that sweet kasumi finish, and this stone delivers."

    — Chris C. (5/5)

    Très bonne pierre, elle travaille

    "Très bonne pierre, elle travaille super bien, un peu moins dur que d’autre marque mais vraiment content du résultat lorsque j’ai aiguisé mes couteaux merci Chris et Alexendre du magasin de Ottawa pour les renseignements Thanks Knifewear!"

    — René L. (4/5)

    Great finishing stone!

    "As a professional sharpener I really needed to add this classic to my collection. I’ve finished almost 600 knives on it already and it wears pretty slow. I like the tooth I get on the edge along with a nice shine. Everyone should have one!"

    — Matt K. (5/5)

    Great splash and go stone.

    "Great splash and go stone."

    Knifewear on top of their game with nice product

    "Very nice product as described, recommended by Knifewear to achieve a kasumi finish refresh for your blade that came with it. Amazing service from the team, amazing order processing and shipping was fast. I strongly recommend !"

    — Bruno C. (5/5)

    Best carbon steel sharpening stone.

    "I’ve been sharpening Japanese knives with Japanese Whetstones for about a year now. Lots of help learning from Knife wear. Thought I was doing really well learning on my carbon steel knives with Shapton and Naniwa. But wholly cow this stone changed my sharpening life! I thought it was great initially, but then got a nagura 8000 grit stone and my knives came alive. Thin paper cuts almost silently and food cuts like nothing I could have hoped for. Think I’ll buy another of these stones in case I ever drop this one. And for the price I hope you’ll try it. P.S. also works wonders on SG2!"

    — Michael M. (5/5)

    For a few years I've

    "For a few years I've had good results progressing from 1000 to 4000 and then to leather strop. I bought the Imanishi 6000 to get a better polish before the strop and am very satisfied with the result. I was warned that this stone was quite soft but have not found that to true. The size is excelent and I really enjoy the the convenience of splash and go."

    — Guy H. (5/5)

    Is this stone mounted on a wooden base? Does it come with a nagura stone?
    Hi there, it does not come with a wooden base, or a nagura stone. Can we do have [nagura](https://knifewear.live/products/naniwa-nagura-stone-65x47x32) and [stone holders](https://knifewear.live/products/naniwa-stone-holder) you can purchase!
