Morihei Hishiboshi Hi 500 sharpening stone

Morihei Hishiboshi Hi 500 is a synthetic sharpening stone with a coarse grit (#500). It is designed for regenerating cutting edges. It works well for forming new cutting edges, repairing damage, and sharpening dull kitchen knives. It's the first step in sharpening, getting the edge ready for smoothing with other stones.

The stone is from the Morihei Hishiboshi Hi series, which was designed to look like natural Japanese stones (JNAT). It contains natural material that makes it easy to use and helps create an active slurry. The sharpening process is stable and well controlled.

Morihei Hi 500 is a type of stone that can be used immediately after being dampened with a small amount of water.

This model is thicker (25 mm) than other similar products, and it is more durable and has a more balanced abrasion. This makes it perfect for people who use it every day.
