  • Uneven Texture: Due to the natural formation of the stone, sharpening particles are not consistent, which requires advanced technique for best results. The unpredictability of the stone’s structure contributes to its charm and exclusivity.
  • Exclusively for Experienced Sharpeners: This whetstone is recommended for those familiar with the art of sharpening, providing precision that only a natural stone can deliver.
  • Knife Care: These natural stones are perfect for preserving and maintaining the high-quality steel of Yoshihiro Cutlery, ensuring your knives maintain their sharpness and integrity over time.
  • Quarried in Kyoto: Mined from the prestigious Ohira Mountain quarries, a region celebrated for producing the finest sharpening stones in Japan.

The beauty of these natural whetstones lies in their imperfections—each stone tells a unique story of its journey through nature, making it an irreplaceable addition to any sharpening collection. No guarantees can be made about the inner composition, as nature alone dictates the stone’s qualities.
