**Naniwa Chosera, Super and Work stones have been replaced by the new and improved Professional, Speciality and Combination stones. Click on the banner above for the new stones.**   
  
  



The Naniwa Chosera 2000 whetstone uses magnesia as binder for the abrasive, in this case white aluminium oxide.  

  


The Chosera stones do not soak up any water so the stones do not need to be sprinkled with water frequently. This makes Chosera stones rather easy to sharpen with. Because of their hardness you will not cut into the stone easily and sharpening with these stones will take less time. Their hardness make them a good choice for knives made from hard steel.  
  


Splash with water before and during sharpening, do not soak or store in water.  
  

**About grit sizes**  

Whetstones come in various grit sizes. The higher the number, the finer the grit. A finer grit results in a sharper knife. Sharpening a really dull knife on a fine grit will take much time, so you will need to treat it on a coarser grit first.  
  

  



* 120 - 600: Appropriate when real dull knives need to be brought back in the right shape

* 800 - 1,000: Appropriate to sharpen knives that were already in a reasonable state

* 2,000 - 3,000: For a result sharper than most knives are when they leave the factory

* 5,000 - 12,000: To polish the knife and get a razor sharp edge



**Remarks pertaining to Chosera sharpening stones**  

During manufacture, Chosera sharpening stones are bound with magnesium. This superior production method guarantees superb results. However, these magnesium-bound stones are more prone to developing hairline cracks. To prevent this from occurring, it is important NOT to use too much water when wetting Chosera sharpening stones. So Chosera stones should NEVER be left to soak in water for a prolonged period of time! It is also important to dry these stones thoroughly after use and store them in a dry, dark place.

Ik zou graag een nederlandse gebruiksaanwijzing krijgen over hoe ik de watersteen moet gebruiken. bij voorbaat dank.Verder alle lof over hoe u de bestelling heeft afgeleverd. Prima 

Ik heb nu een traditionele AluOx steen met een geschatte korrel 800 (staat er helaas niet op) en een epoxy gedragen steen korrel 5000 (Japans). Hier slijp ik nu zo'n 15 tot 20 jaar een Wüsthof Dreizack en een jaar of twee een eenzijdig geslepen Japans mes op. 

Duidelijk zal zijn dat de stap van korrel 800 naar 5000 nogal groot is. Vooral omdat de korrel 800 steen wat krassen maakt die je er met de korrel 5000 niet meer uit krijgt. Vandaar dat mijn keuze op de Chosera 2000 viel

De Chosera steen haalt de krassen er wel uit, dat is al een pre.

Qua slijpen werkt de Chosera steen super, beter nog dan de epoxy steen. Ik vind deze vaak wat zeperig aanvoelen en het lijkt soms of deze niet altijd optimaal werkt. Iets dat pijnlijk duidelijk wordt na gebruik van de Chosera steen, die “voelt” gewoon beter tijdens het slijpen.

Ik ga dus mijn korrel 800 vervangen door een Chosera 1000 en denk er zwaar over om mijn huidige 5000 eveneens om te ruilen voor een Chosera 5000.

Werkt perfect. Chosera heeft mij overtuigt.
Werk als chef kok, kan ze snel aanzetten tijdens werk.
Prijzig wordt het vanaf 5000 korrel, helaas.
