Japanese water stones
These stones are of finer particle composition than a carborundum or Arkansas stone while at the same time maintaining a quick sharpening feature. Use the 1000x to do the primary sharpening and the 4000x to put on the mirror finish. The 8000x Gold stone is the finest particle finishing stone available.

Diamond whetstones
The unique construction of diamond crystals bonded in nickel to steel, and a bed of recessed plastic dots, results in a fast cutting action without plugging. Other advantages are that they will sharpen even carbide, maintain their flat base, can be used wet or dry, and will not break if dropped. They come in four color coded grits ranging from extra coarse (220 mesh), coarse (325 mesh), fine (600 mesh), to extra fine (1200 mesh). They also come in many different sizes and styles.
