Full description
You use this Shapton Glass Stone Grain 4000 to sharpen your already sharp knives. The sharpening stone sharpens quickly and evenly. Which is exactly what we're looking for from a high-quality sharpening stone. Contrary to what you might expect from the name, the glass doesn't do the sharpening. You sharpen on a high-quality Japanese whetstone. A layer of tempered glass is attached to this to prevent bending.

Shapton glass grain 4000 is my best finish stone for all my ordinary everyday knives in the kitchen. It gives me clear feedback which makes sharpening much easier. And all my knives are razor sharp when I use this wet stone. Seems like it improves edge retention a bit as well. It cuts surprisingly quickly for such fine-grained stone. Very impressed and happy to have it in my assortment of wet stones.

Cuts quickly with small amount of water and no need for soaking. It works great with small secondary or micro bevels. Where it does not excel is wide primary bevels with a honing guide. You can sharpen big wide bevels (typical on Japanese planes), but it works better free hand and you need to keep changing the movement - then it works fine. If you keep using exactly the same movement (like with a honing guide) it will start feeling like gliding over rubber and start having a chatter.
