Harder stone than softer ones like King or Suehiro,almost splash&go but needs 2-3min os soaking, grinds steel verry well, good tactile feedback, and the cutting edge after sharpening is verry impressive

The Arashiyama 1000 is a great, medium-hard stone with good feedback that works well even on HSS (I've tested it on HAP 40 with very good results). It is almost s&g, but I'd recommend soaking it for about one or two minutes. Like the Arshiyama 6000 and the Kitayama 8000 it is obviously meant to work with some slurry which you can easily generate by giving it a good rub with a flattening stone. Without the slurry it feels a little rigid. As to sharpness, this stone is excellent, and I would highly recommend it for any user looking for a one-stop-shop for kitchen knives.

Fantastische steen. Snel, een paar keer heen en weer is vaak al genoeg. Eigenlijk is dit de enige steen die je nodig hebt om je messen naar een nieuw soort scherp te brengen. Zeer goede verhouding prijs/kwaliteit.

I tested the stone for now with high carbon steel (chisel, plane blade). I use it as splash and go, and compared to the Arashiyama #6000 this one absorb a bit more water. The first impression I have is that the stone is fast, efficient and really pleasant to use. Thanks!

Aivan huikea 1k kivi, ehdottomasti parhaimpia kokeilemastani isosta joukosta. Splash&go, tehokas. Hieman pintapihmeä, vaikka kovan tai keskikovan tuntuinen. Tästä voi vuolaista pinnasta siivun jos oikein yrittää. Miellyttävä ja selkeä feedback ja tehoa on. Aluksi kivi oli kovemman tuntuinen, mutta ilmeisesti kun pinta on riittävästi auennut käytön myötä tuli pehmeyttä ja pintapehmeyttä esille. Kyllä/ei-asteikolla suosittelen tätä, joskin liotettavista löytyy kovia kilpailijoita (esim. Ken-syou 1k tai Suehiro 1010)
