Naniwa Professional 1K / 3K Japanese Whetstones with Leather Strop Bundle

Naniwa Professional – 1000 / 3000 Grit Japanese Waterstone & K&S Leather Strop Sharpening Set

This sharpening set combines the high-performance Naniwa Professional stones with a K&S leather strop, creating a complete and efficient system for achieving and maintaining extremely sharp, long-lasting edges.

The Naniwa Professional (PRO) series is designed for users who demand fast cutting speed, excellent feedback, and reliable consistency. Developed as the successor to the Chosera line for the global market, these stones use the same premium ceramic abrasive formulation, delivering clean, precise sharpening with minimal effort.

Naniwa Professional stones are classified as splash-and-go, requiring only a quick surface wetting before use. Many users find that a very short soak further improves smoothness and control, especially during extended sharpening sessions.

The K&S leather strop is used after stone sharpening to remove remaining burrs, align the edge, and refine sharpness, extending edge life and improving cutting performance. Stropping adds the final level of polish and control that stones alone cannot fully achieve.
