Naniwa 800 vs Shapton 1000

[richardreyes]

After using king stones for yrs it took some time get use to the hardness of the shapton pro. (Once l did, ) is now one of my favorite. Shapton pro is really its own thing. I do enjoy the chosera 600, 800, and 3000 more than any stone, chosera has problems with cracking. I keep mine in there boxes after drying, no problem after many sharpenings and 4yrs of use. As always great video.

Hello, newbie here.
How are you “deburring”? And what are you using? It looks like a piece of wood. Also, would you mind going over the basic steps of sharpening? From what I can tell watching your videos, depending on how dull your knife is, you start with a lower grit and go to a higher grit until you strope leather. Is that basically right? my husband got me for Japanese knives for Christmas and I have no idea how to take care of them. Any help or suggestions would be very appreciated.

Hello.Which stones from these manufacturers would you recommend that can be purchased from us? King, Naniwa super stone, Taidea, Langsy, Sharpi, KAI ?

[ktheody]

would that chosera 800 (with the base attached) fit on the naniwa sink bridge?

[juliauwanto]

How could i know my chosera 800 was the real one?other sell 100$ and the other seller double the price

[gunny]

i really think you should talk about low grits like shapton 120', 220, and 320 compared to the nainwa 400 as the nainwa 400 does concave a bit fast, but i like my 100o grit shapton. acts good for removing small amounts of metal with little scratching and i haven't had any dishing yet with the shapton ha nu Karumaku ceramic.

Alittle late, but who travels with their wetstones????

I remember you mentioning preferring the Chosera with the base and that it is a different stone than the Chosera without the base. Because of my sharpening set up, I'd prefer one with no base. Is the Chosera with the base removable from the base or no? Thanks!

If you rate the Chosera 800, 1200+, what do you rate Chosera 1K?

[zenrazor]

In the past Chosera was considered in composition different from Naniwa Professional 😮 But now Naniwa to replace Naniwa Professional produce Naniwa Chosera pro that states has bond magnesia like that original Chosera. So are the Chosera prob and the Chosera ( japonese version) identical in composition?🎉

When ordering Shaptons from Japan directly you can get them for ~50% of the western prices.
That makes them SUPER cheap.
I have a whole collection.
Very happy with them.

i have seen some videos where some knives are extremely used (cutting wood, hitting os stones) and they still cut paper smoothly, is it possible ? or it's just marketing

[djevilm]

Yeah ryk, it's all in your mind plus you have used the 800 alot more than the shapton pro. But still, thank you for doing this. Keep it up, we need new videos as well. We miss U ❤

[andrews]

Another good video. What happened to the new studio? I've been gone awhile.

[levmatta]

I believe you can easily classify the Shapton Stone, justo go to a custom mecanical shop. I would really be interested.

The Chosera 800 has much clearer cut than Shapton Pro 1000.

Thank you, for teaching me how to use a whetstone. I spent a lot of money on using sharpening systems like the Chef'schoice, Work sharp Ken Onion, and the Edge pro Apex. After using them for a while, I personally didn't care for the those sharpening systems. Watching Virtuovise and You on sharpening techniques, my confidence in using a whetstones jumped up a lot. A nice visual reference, I check out my the edge under a 20X to 40X microscope, seeing that was really encouraging .

Can you do a Polishing stone Comparison Review, like you do on your sharpening stones ?

[Stoli]

Ryky... I bought Naniwa Chosera 800 with base splash and goand a Suehiro Pro 5000 soaking stoneWhat are the best two blocks to round out my collection? Maybe a 3000 and a finishing stone?

[JorgeHernandez-wgrk]

Have you ever used the Shapton Glass? I personally use Gesshin stones which are fabulous. You can get them at Japanese knife imports located in California.

anything you would suggest when sharpening a knife with a belly that is turned in? like a concave belly
