Restore your knives to their finest… the Japanese way.

Made in Japan, this double-sided sharpening stone is the ideal tool for maintaining your knives with precision and respect.
It combines a 1000 grit to restore the blade's sharpness, and a 3500 grit to polish it with finesse. The gesture is simple, meditative, and effective.

Used by chefs and discerning amateurs alike, this stone allows for traditional sharpening that extends the life of your knives while revealing their full performance.

A slow, precise ritual that reconnects with the object and its use.

Double-sided sharpening stone: 1000 grit (sharpening) / 3500 grit (finishing)

Soak the stone in water for 10 to 15 minutes before use, until air bubbles stop rising. This ensures good lubrication.

Place the stone on a stable, non-slip surface (or use a stand). It must remain firmly in place while sharpening.

Hold the blade at a 10-15° angle (depending on the type of knife) against the stone. The angle should remain constant throughout the movement.

Use even back and forth strokes, covering the entire length of the blade. Work each side of the blade evenly.

Add a little water if necessary: the stone should always remain slightly damp during sharpening.

After sharpening, rinse the blade and wipe the stone with a damp cloth, then allow it to air dry completely, lying flat, out of direct sunlight.

💡 Tip: Use a finer stone (high grit) after coarse sharpening to achieve a razor sharp edge.

Au Japon, l’affûtage est un art transmis depuis des générations. Chaque couteau est conçu pour durer, mais son tranchant dépend du soin qu’on lui apporte. Cette pierre combinée représente la première étape de ce rituel : redonner vie à la lame. Les grains #120 et #240 sont dédiés à l’affûtage grossier, idéal pour réparer une lame abîmée ou très émoussée avant de passer aux grains plus fins. Ce modèle est considéré comme un choix standard et polyvalent, adapté à la majorité des couteaux, qu’ils soient japonais ou occidentaux. Dans les ateliers d’artisans et les cuisines professionnelles japonaises, on commence toujours par une pierre comme celle-ci pour préparer la base. Utilisée avec patience et précision, elle vous permet de maintenir vos couteaux dans leur état optimal, prolongeant leur durée de vie et respectant la tradition d’un entretien soigné.
