Choosing the Right Surfacing Compound
To achieve the best flattening results, it’s important to match the surfacing compound grit with your sharpening stone:
-
Coarse Surfacing Compound
Use for stones 320 grit (40 microns) or coarser -
Medium Surfacing Compound
Use for stones between 500–3000 grit (25–4 microns)
Tip: Coarse compound can be used for initial flattening if needed, but always finish with Medium for a proper surface -
Fine Surfacing Compound
Use for stones 4000 grit (3 microns) or finer
Tip: Medium compound can be used for initial flattening, but finishing should always be done with Fine for optimal results
Why You’ll Love It:
If you want full control over your sharpening setup, the Shapton Naoru system delivers true precision and long-term value. It’s a smarter, more sustainable way to keep your stones perfectly flat.

FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
What is the best way to sharpen my knife?
The best way to sharpen your knife is by using a whetstone. It's a traditional method that provides excellent results. Alternatively, you can use a knife sharpener or take your knives to a professional sharpening service.
How do I properly care for my knives?
To properly care for your knives, hand wash them with mild soap and water, dry them immediately, and store them in a knife block or on a magnetic strip. Avoid putting them in the dishwasher, as the high heat and detergents can damage the blade and handle.
What types of knives do I need in my kitchen?
Essential knives for any kitchen include a chef's knife, a paring knife, a serrated bread knife, and a utility knife. These knives cover a wide range of tasks, from chopping vegetables to slicing bread and delicate peeling.
How do I choose the right knife for me?
Choosing the right knife depends on your cooking style and preferences. Consider the blade material, handle comfort, weight, and balance. It's often helpful to handle a knife before purchasing to ensure it feels comfortable and suits your needs.
What is the difference between forged and stamped knives?
Forged knives are made from a single piece of steel, heated and then shaped, resulting in a heavier, more durable knife. Stamped knives are cut from a sheet of steel and tend to be lighter and less expensive. Both types have their advantages, depending on your cooking requirements.
