These are the new Naniwa Professional series stones that were formerly called the Chosera 3k. At the boundary between fine grit finishing stone and medium grit workhorse, this 3k Chosera water stone can fill several roles in the typical sharpening progression. For many kitchen applications, a 3k edge is a versatile and durable edge for various tasks. For enthusiasts looking to push the limits of keenness, a 3k stone can segue to much finer stones such as the 5k or even the 10k, for the most refined edges possible. The Chosera stones are well regarded for cutting quickly, polishing to a high level or refinement, dishing slowly, and providing a pleasant feel while sharpening. A quick soak or splash of water is recommended for everyday use. Don't perma soak them. These stones are 210mm x 70mm x 20mm.

Bought in conjunction with the 1000 and 8000 stones and love the bite on this stone above either of the other stones. I have a 1000 and 4000 by another maker which I will be giving away. That's how much I like these stones.

Love this stone! Works great on straight razors to really reinforce the bevel after the 1k. Used it on a few knives as well after the 1k. Love the feel and feedback of this one. Highly recommended.

Fabulous stone! It muds up well and produces a usable, extremely sharp, and polished edge. I bought it as a step to my 6k stone, but it's actually good enough to be the final edge for most of my woodworking needs. Fast, dish resistant, super cutter, honer, and polisher. What more could one ask?!
