Suehiro Gokumyo

Gokumyo Sharpening Stones are used for sharpening knives on Hapstone knife sharpeners. All Gokumyo stones are 5-6 mm thick, 20-22 mm wide, and are mounted on high-quality aluminum blanks.

Gokumyo is the high-end line of sharpening stones by Suehiro. Gokumyo stones are universal and can be used to sharpen knives of any steel including high carbon, vanadium, and chromium steels.

Gokumyo is preliminarily lapped and does not require lapping after purchase.

Gokumyo should be used with water as a lubricant. Do not soak Gokumyo stones in water. Just splash, or use a water spray. Never store Gokumyo stones in water. Never dry Gokumyo stones near heat.
