TORMEK Japanese Water Whetstone

250 x 50mm suitable for Tormek 2000 series, T-7 and T-8.

 

The Tormek Japanese Waterstone has a grain size of 4,000 and gives a mirror-like surface with barely visible grinding grooves. Since it is made to give the tool the very finest surface, its ability to be sharpened is limited and it can therefore not be used to reshape a tool.

 

It is particularly suitable for sharpening hand tools such as carving tools, knives, scissors, plane irons and chisels that already have the correct shape and angle. The Tormek Japanese Waterstone has an extremely long durability due to its unique composition. The Tormek Japanese Waterstone produces a sanding surface that is so fine that it does not need to be honed afterwards on the leather honing wheel.

 

You can find many interesting details and recommendations for use on the Tormek website (German).
