The 1×4 Naniwa Stone 8K Snow White stone makes your edges polished and sharp. Originally a stand-alone stone, it is the perfect stone to bridge the gap between the Naniwa Chosera 5K and 10K stones. The 8K Snow White is also a great finisher or can be used as a final stone before progressing to finer stone grits and strops.
Abrasive Material: Aluminum Oxide
This stone is 1″ x 4″ in size mounted to an aluminum blank with a total thickness of 5-6mm that fits the standard KME Sharpener stone holder and the Wicked Edge Uni Stone Holder Paddles. It is used with water only and works best when soaked in water for a minute or two before use. Let air dry and store dry when not in use.
Lap this stone with a coarse or fine diamond plate, the medium or fine powder from the Jende 2 Sided Glass Lapping Plate, or medium/fine grit (220-400) wet dry sand paper to keep it consistently flat and clean.

There quality to produce a mirror polish and sharp edges convinces that my knife is sharp
