Pride Abrasive Water Stone 400 WW400 (WOOD BOX)

Pride Abrasive Water Stone 400 Grit (WW400) – Coarse-Medium Japanese Water Stone

The Pride Abrasive Water Stone 400 grit is a coarse-medium Japanese-style water stone, best suited to reshaping a dull or damaged blade and removing noticeable wear before moving to a finer grit. With a particle size of around 29 microns, it gives predictable, consistent results whether you are sharpening kitchen knives, pocket knives, chisels or outdoor blades.

Soak the stone in water for around 10-15 minutes before use, then work the blade across the surface at a consistent angle. The brown stone face makes it easy to see swarf building up, so you know when a section has been sharpened evenly.
