KEN-SYOU whetstones


Ken-syou whetstones, also known as Kensho, are crafted by sharpener Masashi Fujiwara. These artisan-made stones are recognized for their exceptional polishing quality and are distributed worldwide in limited batches. Ken-syou stones are low-temperature fired resinoid stones containing high-quality Japanese abrasives.

The stones in the #3000 - #10K range are surface-hard Splash-and-Go, requiring minimal water for use. The #400 and #1000 stones are semi-submersible and need about 5 minutes of soaking to be effective. The whetstone box is labeled KEN-SYOU, which is the name I use.
