Naniwa Standard Whetstone 220 Grit – Effective Coarse Sharpening

The Naniwa Standard whetstone 220 grit is the perfect choice when you need to sharpen a dull or damaged knife, especially if it has chips or similar damage. With its coarse grain size, it effectively removes material and restores a sharp edge and has a really good “bite.”

This whetstone is manufactured by Naniwa – one of Japan’s leading manufacturers of whetstones. It has a solid construction and an even grinding surface that ensures precise results every time. Perfect for chef’s knives, outdoor knives, and other cutting tools that need a powerful refresh.

It is recommended that you soak the stone in water for about 5 minutes before use.

Advantages of Naniwa Standard Grit 220:

✔ Fast and effective coarse grinding – ideal for very dull or damaged knives

✔ High quality from Naniwa – known for their durable and precise whetstones

✔ Perfect for preparation – provides a good starting point before finer grinding

For optimal sharpness, it is recommended to continue grinding with a finer stone after using grain 220. Combine with a Naniwa 1000 or 3000 grit for a professional finish!

If you would like to try the stone before purchasing, you are always welcome to try it and others in the workshop.
