Suehiro Cerax #1000 Knife Sharpening Stone
The Cerax #1000 is a high–abrasive concentration soaking stone designed for regular knife maintenance. Its porous, high-friability structure allows it to cut steel efficiently with less pressure after a short soak. This stone builds slurry quickly, especially on single-bevel and wide-bevel knives, producing an even finish with good contrast between soft and hard steel.
Thanks to its high abrasive content, the Cerax #1000 also performs well on abrasion-resistant steels such as HAP40, ZDP-189, CPM-M4, and similar alloys. It is often considered a direct upgrade from the King 1000.
