Ikyu Shin Nagura Whetstone 1000 Grit

Accessories Information

The Ikyu 1000 grit is definitely different from many other stones we stock. Due to it's unique production method and relatively secretive blend ratio, it feels coarser, cuts faster, and feels more like a natural stone compared to many other 1000 grits. 

It lays a fantastic base to progress to the Ikyu 3000, a blend of Mikawa Nagura and synthetic powder. It's extra thickness makes for a great value stone. These stones need to be soaked before use.
