Wusthof Whetstone J400/2000

A sharpening stone for a particularly gentle way of honing and sharpening your knives. WÜSTHOF Whetstones consist of a combination of different high-quality, abrasive grits. The stones have two sides – one with a fine grit and one coarse. The coarse side is used to smooth off any unevenness while the finer grit is used to hone and sharpen your knife.

The 400 Grit Side (Coarse / Repair): This side has large, aggressive abrasive particles. Use it first if your knife is completely blunt, dull, or has minor chips and nicks along the edge. It quickly grinds away damaged metal to reshape and establish a brand-new cutting edge.

The 2000 Grit Side (Medium-Fine / Finish): This side features much smaller, finer particles. Use it second to remove the scratches left by the 400 grit side. It refines, hones, and polishes the raw edge into a razor-sharp, smooth finish that is perfect for slicing meat, fish, and vegetables.
