Naniwa Specialty/Super Stone 3000 Grit

This is where most honing starts. If your blade pulls but still cuts, this range is about as rough as you should need to go.  It grinds steel well, but is far less aggressive than a rougher stone such as 1,000. As a result, the stone does the job without grinding excess steel and shortening the life of your blade.

Naniwa Specialty stones are softer than some, so they require more careful and frequent flattening. They're a great budget-friendly option and will last a lifetime of casual sharpening.

Always flatten your stone with a truing stone after honing.
