Tormek SJ-250 Japanese Waterstone

Product description

The Tormek Japanese Waterstone is 4000 grit and delivers a mirror finish with hardly any visible marks. Since it is made to create the finest surface, it has a limited steel removal capacity and cannot be used for shaping* a tool. It excels at sharpening hand tools like carving tools, knives, scissors, plane irons and wood chisels where a minimum of steel removal is needed and a superior surface finish is demanded. Its unique composition gives the stone an extremely long life. Since the surface left by the Japanese Waterstone is so fine, we do not recommend honing afterwards on the leather honing wheel.

Create a Superior Surface Finish
Featuring a grit size of 4,000, the SJ-250 Tormek Japanese waterstone provides your hand tools with a mirror finish and with hardly any visible marks. Since it's designed to create a fine surface, the stone has limited steel-removal capacity and therefore can be used only to sharpen tools, not shape them.

Great for Knives, Chisels, and Other Hand Tools
The SJ-250 Tormek Japanese waterstone is well suited for sharpening hand tools such as carving tools, knives, scissors, plane irons, and wood chisels, where you need to remove only a minimal amount of steel.
