Shapton Whetstone | Rockstar - 320, 500, 1000 or 3000
$88
New from Shapton Japan, a step up from their older Pro stones. A great stone for the price range if the case isn't included, it's a lovely case but there are better stones at that higher price level. As well sell them (no case), they are a solid choice for any sharpener, from novice to professional.

Japanese Stones (Whetstones)
The consensus for sharpening Japanese kitchen knives, as well as Japanese woodworking tools, is the use of a whetstone. Dry grinding can affect temper (effectively ruining your knife or tool) and diamond plates are often too aggressive (removing too much material).
All Japanese whetstones will require flattening after use, no matter what type of stone, or the style of your sharpening, all whetstones will begin to dish over time. We recommend a ceramic flattening stone, or diamond plate for this task. For more info, check out Selecting a Japanese Whetstone.
