シャプトン(Shapton) 刃の黒幕 #1000 中 オレンジ K0702

前から名前は知っていたけど、3000円をケチって躊躇していました（笑） やすくてちっこい両面の人造砥石が3年ぐらい使ってすり減ったので、このぐらい使うなら3000円ぐらい使って良かろうと頑張ってポチりました（笑） いや、最初からこれにすればよかった。水に浸けとく必要もないし、サッと出してササッと砥げる。 よく砥げるので、すぐに作業が終わる。料理前でも気になったら5分ぐらいで砥げるので快適に料理ができるようになりました。マジでこりゃいいわ。

砥石2つ目です。 初めて使ったのは貝印のもので、柔らかくて研ぎやすく初心者には最適だったと思います。 よい品でしたが、研ぐ前に水に浸ける必要があるのと減りが早すぎて面出しで砥石自体が無くなりそうなので、こちらを購入しました。 水に浸けずる必要がなく、砥石自体もよく研げるので、時間と手間の大幅な短縮に繋がりました。すこし慣れた方にはとてもおすすめだと思います。 -- 素人の感想ですが、よく研げるので、思い切って ＃1500 か #2000 でも良かったかなと思っています。

あっという間に切れ味が戻ります。VG10やSPG STRIXや青2などの鋼材の包丁でしたら簡単に中研ぎできます。仕上げをした方がより切れ味が高くなりますが、これだけでも十分切れ味が復活します。入門用のキング砥石だと少しサイズがコンパクトで時間も多少かかりましたが、こちらは210ｍｍの牛刀など長めのものでも面が広いので研ぎが安定しますし研ぎ時間が短くて済みます。

今まで色々と砥石を買ってきたが、ダントツで研ぎやすい プロの方にも４回ほど頼んだが、この砥石なら遜色ない位の切れ味になる 蕎麦包丁３３センチ刃渡り、刺身包丁３０センチ刃渡り、アウトドアナイフ１０センチ前後の刃渡り４本、ペット用すき鋏、カーブ鋏を研いだが切れ味良く研げた 何より研いでいて気持ち良い またリピートしようと思う

久々によい買い物しました。 ここ最近はアマゾンのインチキ桜レビューに霹靂していましたが、これに関しては星5つで足りないレベルの凄い商品です。 理由は水を吸わせなくとも水道の水を少しかける程度でよく、刃の付くスピードも圧倒的に速いです。 以前貝印の1000番使っての比較です。 包丁研ぐのが楽しくて仕方ないレベル！ 絶対オススメです。

所有するナイフ類の刃物研ぎ、これから練習します。 夢中になって研いでいたら指先まで研いでしまいました。意外と気が付きませんから気を付けましょう。

#1000だけでも包丁の切れ味はとても良くなったので、とりあえず1種類買ってみるのにオススメ 逆に日本剃刀には不向きで一切髭が剃れずに引っかかる。ものすごく痛い。

万能包丁、出刃包丁に柳包丁を研ぐのに使っています。切れ味抜群になるので注意してください。

Every knive, dull or sharp amounts to improvement while using the stone (keeping in mind The Angle of the blade). 1000 grit measurement is the perfect medium. Have gotten knives come back to live meanwhile inferior effeminately seem ready for re-cycle. KEEP SHARP

Good quality, though bit of a steep learning curve

As others have observed, the grading of 1000 is probably a little high, it might be more like 800, it's definitely a medium stone rather than a fine one. Whilst you can use it to reprofile an edge, it will take a while, this stone excels at repairing and maintaing an already profiled knife. It's a very high quality stone, its consitency is uniform, there are no grit lumps (giving rise to pimples) and the wear in consistent over the whole surface. It is of one grade throughout, both sides cut the same. It's easy to use, do fully read the enclosed instructions though since some online videos are incorrect, it's not just a "splash and go" stone, it's porous throughout and requires an initial soaking period especially if it has been left to dry out. You also need to regularly splash as you sharpen to both lubricate and remove slurry. It's not as convenient as a dry diamond stone but it's a fraction of the price. In practice using it with a small towel around it is fine, once it has been soaked you only need a teaspoon of water every so often to keep the surface lubricated and clean. The case is nicely designed as well, it is sturdy and clicks closed positively so that even if you do the unspeakable and drop the stone in the closed box it should still be protected from fracture. There are four non-slip rubber button feet on the underside and a four-sided fence on the lid which retains the stone perfectly whilst allowing water and slurry to drain from the gaps in each corner. This means you don't need to buy or make a custom stone holder, the case does a perfectly adequate job for most people. The whetstone has a very nice smooth grind feel when sharpening, you can easily gauge from the drag how much metal you are removing, the tactile feedback from the stone is excellent. Unlike diamond stones this stone will wear and depending on your usage and technique/proficiency you will need to periodically flatten it which requires investing in a separate flattening stone, but it's well worth it and if you use and maintain this whetstone properly it will give you many years of faultless service and hundreds of sharp knives. Whilst you can buy a finer grade stone to finish on, you don't have to. The orange Kuromaku is a good enough compromise that you can use it to both shapen and finish needing only one or two leather strops with diamond paste to raise a knife to a razor edge (dependent on the knife of course). Overall this is an excellent quality stone, I'm very pleased with it and I also believe that it represents excellent value for money since you can just about get away with just the one expensive whetstone plus one flattening stone and a few rawhide strops. (You can do major reprofiling using those cheap diamond stones first.) As a novice I watched many online tutorials before purchase and I went with the consensus of opinion that this was an excellent value one-stone sharpening solution and after using it successfully (I sharpen all my friend's knives for practice) I concur with them all. If I buy an additional whetstone it will be probably be another Shapton.

Has an excellent consistantcy to the stone. Works with a splash of water. Puts a quality edge on your blade quickly. I use this stone as a finishing stone after I have worked the flaws out on a diamondstone. Very happy with the purchase and can highly recommend.
