DESCRIPTION

This is the kit for the perfectionist. If you already know how to sharpen, the 3000/8000 grit set is your final step to creating a blade that is not just sharp, but surgically precise with a stunning mirror polish.

Your Complete Finishing System

This isn't just a stone; it's an entire maintenance station. We've included everything you need to achieve and maintain a flawless edge for years to come.

  • 3000-Grit Refining Side: This is your pre-polish step. It refines the edge from a 1000-grit stone, removing finer scratches and setting the stage for a true mirror finish.
  • 8000-Grit Polishing Side: This is where you get that gleam. This ultra-fine surface polishes the steel to a true mirror, creating a "scary sharp" edge that glides through food with zero resistance.
  • Diamond Flattener: A whetstone is only as good as its flattest surface. Use this essential tool to keep your stone perfectly true, ensuring consistent, accurate results every time.
  • Angle Guide: Takes the guesswork out of sharpening. This guide helps you lock in the perfect, consistent angle for a flawless bevel.
  • Acacia Wood Base: The beautiful, non-slip acacia wood base holds the stone securely, so you can focus on your sharpening strokes without the stone shifting.

Crafted from premium white corundum, this stone cuts quickly and evenly, giving you professional results at home.

  • Grit: Dual-Sided 3000# (Refining) / 8000# (Polishing)
  • Material: Premium White Corundum
  • Base: Non-slip Acacia Wood Holder

Two Grits, One Stone

WHETSTONE

Two Grits, One Stone

Sharpening is a progression, not a single pass. This combination stone gives you both stages on one block: a 3000-grit medium-fine face to refine and set the edge, then an 8000-grit fine face to polish it smooth. Work through both and a tired knife comes back to a clean, controlled edge that bites cleanly and releases food without tearing. Soak it, raise a slurry, and let the stone do the work.

Both Stages, No Second Purchase

WHY A COMBINATION STONE

Both Stages, No Second Purchase

Buy a single-grit stone and you only get half the job. A 3000-grit stone alone leaves a working edge but no polish; an 8000-grit stone alone is too fine to fix a dull knife. This stone bonds both faces to one block, so you refine and finish in the same session without owning two stones or guessing where to start. It is the practical middle of the range: fine enough to give a genuine polish, coarse enough on the reverse to bring a blunt edge back to life.

The 3000 and 8000 Faces

WHAT YOU GET

The 3000 and 8000 Faces

One whetstone, two working surfaces. The 3000-grit side is your refining and edge-setting face — it removes the dullness, raises a burr, and establishes a keen working edge. The 8000-grit side is your finishing face — it deburrs and polishes that edge to a fine, slick finish for clean slicing. Flip the stone to move between stages. Supplied in a carton box, ready to soak and use.

For People Who Maintain Their Own Knives

WHO IT'S FOR

For People Who Maintain Their Own Knives

This is the stone for someone who already owns good knives and wants to keep them sharp rather than send them out. It suits owners of Japanese-style and quality European knives who are past the absolute-beginner stage and want a polish, not just a working edge. It also makes a considered gift for a keen home cook or a new knife owner — pair it with a knife and you have given them the means to maintain it for years.

The difference

Why this set

3000 GRIT FACE

  • Medium-fine. Refines and sets the working edge — your starting face for a knife that has gone dull.

8000 GRIT FACE

  • Fine. Deburrs and polishes the edge to a smooth finish — your final face for clean, controlled slicing.

FAQs

What grits is this whetstone?

It is a dual-sided combination stone with a 3000-grit face and an 8000-grit face on the one block.

Which side do I start on?

Start on the 3000-grit face to refine and set the edge, then flip to the 8000-grit face to polish and finish it.

Is this stone for fixing very dull or chipped knives?

No. 3000/8000 is a refining-and-finishing pair for maintenance sharpening. A badly dull or chipped knife should be brought back on a coarser stone first, then finished on this one.

Do I need to soak it before use?

Yes — soak the stone, then raise a slurry on the surface as you sharpen and keep it wet throughout.

Will this work on my non-Xinzuo knives?

Yes. It sharpens quality kitchen knives generally, including Japanese-style and European blades; it is not limited to Xinzuo knives.

Is it a good gift?

Yes. Paired with a knife it makes a complete, practical gift for a keen home cook or a new knife owner, and it arrives boxed.

Where is it made?

It is made in Yangjiang, China — the same knife-making region Xinzuo's kitchen knives come from.
