Japanese Waterstones Japanese waterstones are well known for the benefits which they offer over traditional oilstones. Not only do they cut faster but also give a far keener cutting edge. They are a little softer than traditional stones and consequently wear a little faster but are far easier to maintain.
Individual coarse and medium stones may be stored in water all the time although protection should be taken against frost damage. If the stone is mounted on a stand avoid submersing the stand in water. This means that they are immediately ready for use. Fine stones should be sprinkled with water prior to use and will benefit from a regular dressing with a Nagura stone for the very finest finish.
|
|
 | Fine Finishing Stones Mounted on a stand, both stones measure 206 x 73 x 23mm (approx. 8" x 3" x 1")
|
|
 | Medium Stones Not mounted. JWS0102 measures 206 x 66 x 32mm, JWS0103 is 206 x 73 x 60mm. |
|
 | Waterstone Set This set gives you a coarse, medium and fine Japanese waterstone at any affordable price. Grits are 220, 1000 and 3000. Each stone comes mounted on a stand and measures 180 x 50 x 15mm (approx. 7" x 2" x 5/8"). Individual stones are also available. |
|
 | Curved Edge Waterstone Available in three grits. Each stone measures 152 x 55 x 35mm (approx. 6" x 2.1/4" x 1.3/4"). |
|
Nagura Stone By rubbing this chalky stone over the face of a finishing waterstone, a fine paste is created which aids the final polishing of the cutting edge of any tool. |
|
 | Flattening Stones Flattening stones are designed to re-true the surface of a waterstone. Soak the stone in water prior to use and then rub the surface of the waterstone along the flattening stone. The grooves remove any waste material and prevent clogging. Rinse the waterstone well before re-using.
Black stone is for coarse grits, blue for medium and coarse grits.

|
 | Aluminium Oxide Wheels We strongly recommend the use of 'White Wheels' for grinding HSS. aluminium oxide cuts faster and generates far less heat than standard wheels. The friable bond on these wheels means that once worn, the top surface powders away releasing fresh new abrasive from below. The 36 grit wheels are used for reprofilling tools. They create less heat and are less likely to glaze. Use the 80 grit wheels for sharpening. |
