Shin Nagura stones combine raw power with refined sharpening feel. The Shin Nagura 1000 stone is more efficient than many 600-800 grit stones and is classified as having a soft surface, yet it withstands use well. Its power is visible, tangible, and audible.
When you move to the 3000 stone, you encounter a completely different type of finisher made from natural stone composite. This stone brings true enjoyment to the sharpening process while remaining highly effective.
