This is a single sided 1000 grit Whetstone (Toishi) without a base, a good starting point for restoring an edge to a well used knife. This medium grit
whetstone is used when restoring dulled edges or after a coarser whetstone has already been used to recontour a blade or fix a chip. If you need a base check out our adjustable base here.
The Sakai Takayuki Japanese Toishi Sharpening is made in Japan.
