Please note that Naniwa changed the name of this stone from the Super 400 to the Advance 400.
This is the new version of the Naniwa Super Stone with new packaging. They are made with a new resin bond and a tighter control of grit particle size. This bonding agent gives the stones two distinct advantages. First, the resin bond allows for a higher concentration of abrasive particles compared with less expensive methods of stone bonding. The higher abrasive levels contribute to the speed and ease of sharpening. Second, these resin-bonded stones don't require soaking in water prior to use, just a sprinkle on the top is all that is needed. Do not soak these stones!
This particular 400 grit stone is excellent for establishing a new bevel angle or removing chips from the blade. This stone is the lowest grit you will need if you maintain your edges. If your knife or tool is not damaged or allowed to get too dull between sharpening sessions, this 400 would be the coarsest stone you would need.
The stones measure 210 mm x 70 mm x 20 mm.

I love this stone! I put it through my entire knife bag after a busy holiday season. It's fast cutting, slow dishing, doesn't load up fast. I used German steel, blue

I was a bit impatient to receive my products, however they arrived very quickly. The staff was very helpful as well. This stone has the feel of a little higher grit range however it will bring even the worst of dull knives back from dead. Make sure you know your angles and pressure when sharpening a knife as this stone does its work quickly. The packaging was wonderful and I probably could ha e punted the box across the yard and still not damaged the contents. The thin packing paper makes for a wonderful sharpness test when you finish sharpening. Will definitely return for future business.
