Whetstone Holder - for knife sharpening
If you are getting into the dark art of hand sharpening, then it isn't just a whetstone you should be getting your hands on. Grab a holder and ensure that there is no awkward slippage frustrating your technique.
Saunders says:
"If you are trying to keep a regular smooth sharpening motion, it is essential that your whetstone stays where you want it and, despite the wet surfaces, doesn't slip. If you are going to buy a whetstone, stick one of these in your basket."
We also have whetstone flatteners. Three grades of shapton whetstone are available: 320, 1,000 and 5,000 grit.
* Please note that this holder fits the shapton and the naniwa whetstones. The suehiro whetstones are a couple of millimetres too short to be held securely by the holder; this does not impede their use as the holders are anti-slip, but do bear this in mind *
