Shapton Glass Stone – stylish, durable, and precise whetstone

Despite the name, the Shapton Glass Stone is not a glass sharpening stone – it’s an extremely hard ceramic stone with a glass base for rigidity. This structure gives the stone exceptional durability and a sleek, modern appearance. It’s excellent for sharpening both Japanese and European knives.

The thin, dense abrasive surface ensures highly precise and efficient sharpening. Thanks to the glass backing, the stone wears evenly and can be used almost entirely. In practice, Shapton Glass Stones last as long as many full-thickness stones.

Benefits of Shapton Glass Stone:

  • Thin and lightweight: easy to handle and transport
  • Durable and slow-wearing: minimal flattening required, long lifespan
  • Quick to use: true Splash and Go – no soaking, no mess

The best part is that it's a true "Splash and Go" stone – just add a splash of water and start sharpening. No soaking, no mess.

We recommend using the SABITORU MEDIUM - Rust Eraser with your Shapton Glass stones to keep the surface clean and ready to perform.
