Kyo Higashiyama #8000 w/base w/nagura

Kyo Higashiyama stones come to us from a small manufacturer in Kyoto, Japan.  These are fast cutting stones that don't require a lot of soaking.  Great for powdered high speed steels and high carbon knives.  

For the #8000 stone we recommend a quick splash and go.  There is a nagura stone included with the #8000. It is designed to clean the stone and create a light slurry to aid in the sharpening
