A sustainable, easy-to-use alternative to natural whetstones.
Even though natural whetstones deliver a beautiful finish, they also come with some drawbacks: they can be expensive or contain impurities that can damage knives, or inefficient or challenging to use for first-timers. That’s why Suehiro set out to create a synthetic whetstone that would not only rival a natural one, but surpass it. Suehiro applied their extensive knowledge of whetstones to create one that’s user friendly, reliable, and the better choice for coarse and medium sharpening.
