This knife sharpening stone combines a generous 210 x 70 mm working surface with splash-and-go preparation, so you can start sharpening without a prolonged soak. The Naniwa Chocera Pro uses magnesia bonding for consistent abrasive density and a fast-cutting feel when sharpening knives and tools.

Each stone has a single grit, letting you build a sharpening progression around your needs. The range spans 400 through 10000 grit; the source recommends 400, 1000 and 5000 as a three-stone progression for coarse sharpening, fine sharpening and polishing. Each grit is selected individually.

Wet the stone with a brief dunk or repeated sprays, and keep it wet during sharpening. After use, let it air dry evenly away from heat and store it only when completely dry. Periodic flattening maintains the working surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this sharpening stone need soaking before use?

No. This splash-and-go sharpening stone needs only a quick dunk or repeated sprays over about a minute. Keep it wet while sharpening, and do not leave it submerged because prolonged water exposure affects the bonding.

Which grits make a useful sharpening progression?

The 400, 1000 and 5000 grit stones form the recommended three-stone progression for coarse sharpening, fine sharpening and polishing. Each selectable stone has one grit, so select the individual grits needed for your routine.

Will this water stone need flattening?

Yes. This water stone still needs flattening as it wears, even though it wears more slowly than many other water stones. Use a suitable flattening stone or lapping plate to maintain the working surface.

Do I need a holder for this sharpening stone?

A holder is optional for this sharpening stone. It can help prevent sliding and raise the stone above the work surface, which is useful when sharpening knives.
