Review: Great Quality & Performance - The Shapton Ha No Kuromaku ceramic whetstones are impressively high quality and do exactly what they're supposed to—they can achieve a true razor edge with little effort. I've used the full progression (from #1000 up to #12,000 grit) and each stone is consistent and flat out of the box, so you don't have to fuss with prepping them before every use. The sharpening speed is noticeably faster than other types of stones I've tried, which is ideal if you want to get your knives back in the game quickly. That said, these are a significant investment; the price is on the high side, especially if you only occasionally sharpen your knives or tools. They’re probably not worth it for casual users who just need a basic edge every once in a while. But for anyone who really cares about maximizing sharpness or maintaining premium blades, the performance is excellent. One crucial thing to note: proper maintenance is key. Regular flattening is a must to keep them working at their best—you can’t skip this step if you want reliable results over time. Neglecting it reduces the benefit you get from these stones and can make them feel like less of a good value. Overall, I recommend this set to serious sharpeners who want reliable results and don't mind doing some upkeep. For everyone else, the high price might be a dealbreaker.
Review: A bit expensive but absolutely worth the price. - These all arrived in excellent condition. No cracks or anything like that. The instructions were all in Japanese but it's easy enough to look up how to take care of them online. Every one in this kit works amazingly well and gets your knives razor sharp. I've probably sharpened 300+ knives with these since I got them and they show no signs of stopping. Obviously i did have to re-flatten them a couple times and since I didn't want to spend ~$400 on a lapping plate I just took an equally sized grit piece of sandpaper and wrapped it around a brick to flatten the stones back out. None of the ones in this set here need it often but their 200 grit version one wears down quickly and basically needs it after each use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality!!!
*by C***! on March 26, 2025*

Stones are amazing and they're arrived in good condition and very well wrapped! Unfortunately I didn't received those towels.... 1000 grit in reality compared with Naniwa Chosera is coarser....around 600-800 grit 5000 grit can be compared with a Naniwa 3000/4000 Good cutting speed but not so fast as Cerax compared Shapton 100 with Cerax 1010. For those who are looking for chicken sharpening you don't need more than 5000 grit! For a home kitchen they will last forever!!! Good value for money !!! At this price is hard to believe you can buy a better set !!
