Kaiden Sharpening Stones

The Kaiden range of ceramic sharpening stones are laden with rich amounts of aluminium oxide grit for superior cutting power. They are labouriously hand moulded and pressed with 100t of pressure before being dried and high fired over a 36-hour period. These stones are for the true professional and although good for ryoba style edges they excel for kataba style blades.

We strongly recommend this stone for those with intermediate to advanced sharpening skills only.

• Super fast cutting power
• Long lasting
• Excellent feedback during the sharpening process (crisp burrs)
• Great end results- i.e sharp blades
• Instructions: Soak the 400 grit stone a good 20 minutes before use or until the bubbles stop rising. Keep adding water as you go throughout the sharpening process.

 Dimensions:

Kaiden 210mm (L) x 70mm (W) x 20mm (H) - approximate

Sharpening Stones – SOAKING TYPE

Do not drop as the stone will crack.

Do not leave under water for long periods of time as the stone will deteriorate and break apart.

Soak just prior to use until the stone is waterlogged and the bubbles stop rising. (About 20 minutes for the 400 grit stone)

Rinse and leave to dry after use.

Do not store unless fully dry.

Flatten your stone regularly using a stone flattener for consistent results.
