Shapton Glass Stone HR grit 8000 super fine 1.84 micron stone, 50203

It's still early days yet, but I can conform these stone remove material very quickly. I flattened with a Trend Diamond stone, but it left scratches, so invested in the Shapton Diamond stone

Very regular grain like the rest of the range, goes well with the 16000.

I need sharpening stones for woodworking tools which need regular touching up.I've always used water stones, but these are much cleaner to use and avoid the constant flattening. They also work faster and give an excellent finish. They're expensive, but should last a long time.
