KAI is a brand with more than 100 years of expertise manufacturing kitchen knives of exceptional quality. It is definitely one of the leading brands of the prestigious Japanese cutlery, and their knives are widely used by cooks all over the world.
All KAI knives have a fantastic cutting performance with a superior level of sharpness. Therefore, to ensure that they never lose their razor sharp edge, we recommend you to sharpen them with the KAI Combination Whetstone 300/1000. This is the perfect sharpening tool for your kitchen, and it can be used with steel knives of any brand.
This whetstone has two different faces, each one for a different level of sharpening. As a general rule, the higher is the number of the grit, the smaller and finer is the grain present in the whetstones and a thus a sharper ending result. The two faces included in this whetstone are the following:
– Grit 300 (the lower, orange part of the whetstone) has a coarse grain, which is ideal for the initial sharpening of a knife’s blade. It is the most recommendable grit for blunt knives.
– Grit 1000 (the upper, grayish part of the whetstone) has smaller grain for achieving a finer sharpening of the cutting edge.
In order to the get the best results from using your whetstone, you have to soak it in water for about 5 to 10 minutes. Then, while sharpening the knife, the whetstone must always stay slightly wet. During the sharpening process, the whetstone can be placed in its black, plastic stand.
