30 DAYS OPEN PURCHASEThis is the kit for anyone who wants to go from reasonably sharp to that almost ridiculously clean cut that makes paper split out of pure respect. The Naniwa Traditional series is a reliable classic in many kitchens, perfect both for beginners and for those who already talk about kireaji as if it were a wine tasting.
Three whetstones covering the full range from heavy material removal to mirror polishing
The kit includes three sharpening stones from Naniwa.
220 grit, aratogi
The stone for heavy work when the edge looks like it has survived a small war. It quickly removes chips and irregularities until the knife starts behaving like a proper knife again.
1500 grit, nakatogi
The intermediate stone that provides structure and shape. Ideal when you want to feel the edge stabilising and moving toward that controlled sharpness that makes sharpening so addictive.
6000 grit, shiage togi
The finishing stone that gives a silky smooth surface. After a few strokes, the knife begins to cut almost through air and you get that mirror-like polish that makes you want to start finely slicing everything in sight.
15 degree angle guide
Sharpening is all about consistency and the angle guide helps you keep a steady angle without doing mental math. Slide it onto the spine of the knife and you get an even sharpening phase every time.
Whetstone holder
A sturdy and adjustable holder that keeps your whetstones stable. You no longer have to chase them across the counter and can focus fully on sharpening.
Leather strop from Surudoi
The final touch that removes microscopic burrs and leaves the edge truly clean. A little like polishing an already clean car for that last bit of shine, only for knives and far more satisfying.
Perfect for those who
want to sharpen both their skills and their knives
appreciate clear results and quality tools
enjoy the combination of Japanese sharpening tradition and practical accessories that make the work easier
