Use Shapton's extra coarse grit stone to fix minor chips and damages and to create a new edge on a dull blade. You can also use a coarse grit stone to change the bevel angle ratio of your knife. After using a coarse grit stone, make sure to finish the sharpening process with a medium or fine grit stone to smooth out the scratches and to obtain a sharper edge. Shapton ceramic stones should not be soaked, making knife sharpening more convenient.

How to Use Shapton Ceramic Sharpening Stone
Before Use
- No soaking required – Unlike traditional water stones, Shapton ceramic stones should not be soaked.
- Splash water onto the surface before sharpening. If the stone feels dry, apply more water as needed.
After Use
- Do not keep soaking after use.
- Store in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent cracking or warping.
Additional care
- Flatten the stone periodically using a lapping plate or stone fixer to maintain a level surface. Use light, even strokes to avoid unnecessary wear on the stone.
- The Shapton Diamond Stone Fixer should not be used with #120 stone. To flatten it, use another stone of the same grit as a stone fixer.
