Stone recommendations for a TF Denka?

Corradobrit1 · Feb 9, 2018

I have a basic entry level 1000/6000 grit King combo stone for sharpening my knives. Its been fine for the Nashiji gyuto but I feel the Denka deserves some better alternatives so now is a good time to upgrade. Which stones (brand/grit#) do Denka owners find work well with the extra hard AS steel?

The King 1000/6000 will work fine on AS steel, but if you are looking to upgrade your stones, you might consider the JKI diamond stone set (https://www.japaneseknifeimports.co...combo-stones/products/diamond-1k-6k-stone-set). Splash and go, extremely wear resistant (I've had mine a few years and they have yet to need flattening), and produce excellent edges with just enough "tooth".

Great suggestion. Thats exactly the kind of edge I like on my knives too.
