Suehiro SKG

Sharpening stones from Suehiro SKG are a truly versatile tool, capable of providing high-precision sharpening even for very hard materials. The distinctive feature of Suehiro models is the ease with which they remove the top layer of metal, allowing for achieving a mirror-like polish of the edge. These stones are designed for use in the Hapstone sharpening system.

Suehiro sharpening stones handle capricious metals with ease, metals that may crumble on other, more rigid stones. The abrasive dust generated during work mixes with moisture, creating a special paste that plays a crucial role in gentle sharpening. It is recommended to use a smooth motion during sharpening, covering the maximum surface area of the stone to avoid damaging the blade.

The quality of Suehiro sharpening stones is high, and they feel pleasant to hold. In operation, they stand out with excellent tactile feedback.
