If you've worked long enough for the tool to need more than a quick\n lick on the 1200 stone, start with the 800 instead, once again reducing the time on each grit to\n less than a minute.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   The Nagura dressing stone is used for cleaning and flattening the stones before and during use,\n and for creating a slurry for use on 4000 \u0026amp; 8000 finish stones only.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   All our waterstones are man-made; their abrasive is sieved for accurate grit size and freedom\n from impurities, and the bonding process is very carefully controlled to ensure consistently reliable\n performance.  Medium and fine stones are relatively soft, which means that every stroke of a tool\n exposes fresh, sharp grit  and quickly builds an abrasive slurry which is a key ingredient in the\n stones' excellent performance.  Their fast wear rate (don't be overly concerned about \"fast\", it\n means most waterstones probably won't last more than five to twenty years depending on use), together\n with their very hard, sharp aluminum oxide abrasive makes for extremely effective sharpening on even\n the hardest tool steel.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch5\u003e\n   Includes\n  \u003c\/h5\u003e\n  \u003cul style=\"margin-top:-2px;\"\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/greenstone.aspx\" href=\"\/products\/greenstone\"\u003e\n     Sun Tiger Green Waterstone - 240 grit\n    \u003c\/a\u003e\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cul style=\"margin-top:-2px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n     Dimensions - 205mm x 75mm x 50mm (8-1\/4\" x 3-1\/8\" x 2-1\/8\")\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003c\/ul\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/standardwaterstone1000grit.aspx\" href=\"\/products\/standardwaterstone1000grit\"\u003e\n     King Deluxe Waterstone - 800 grit\n    \u003c\/a\u003e\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/standardwaterstone1000grit.aspx\" href=\"\/products\/standardwaterstone1000grit\"\u003e\n     King Deluxe Waterstone - 1200 grit\n    \u003c\/a\u003e\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cul style=\"margin-top:-2px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n     Deluxe Stone Dimensions - 207mmm x 66mm x 34mm (8\" x 2-1\/2\" x 1-1\/4\")\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003c\/ul\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/standardwaterstone8000grit.aspx\" href=\"\/products\/standardwaterstone8000grit\"\u003e\n     King Super Finish Waterstone - 4000 grit\n    \u003c\/a\u003e\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/standardwaterstone8000grit.aspx\" href=\"\/products\/standardwaterstone8000grit\"\u003e\n     King Super Finish Waterstone - 8000 grit\n    \u003c\/a\u003e\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cul style=\"margin-top:-2px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n     Super Finish Stone Dimensions - 185mm x 62mm x 15mm (7-1\/4\" x 2-1\/2\" x 19\/32)\"\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n     Super Finish Stone Dimensions with base - 221mm x 68mm x 35mm (8-11\/16\" x 2-11\/16\" x 1-3\/8\")\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003c\/ul\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/nagurastone.aspx\" href=\"\/products\/nagurastone\"\u003e\n     King Nagura Stone\n    \u003c\/a\u003e\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003cul style=\"margin-top:-2px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n     Dimensions - 72mm x 23mm x 19mm (2-3\/4\" x 7\/8\" x 3\/4)\"\n    \u003c\/li\u003e\n   \u003c\/ul\u003e\n   \u003cli\u003e\n    All stones are Made in Japan\n   \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ca name=\"moreinfo\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ch3 style=\"background:#D6CBB5; padding:2px 4px; font-size:13.33px;\"\u003e\n   Additional Information\n  \u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/waterstonesharpening.aspx\" href=\"\/pages\/custom-waterstonesharpening\"\u003e\n    Highland Woodworking Guide to Waterstone Sharpening\n   \u003c\/a\u003e\n   .\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   \u003ca data-prev-url=\"\/library\/waterstone_sharpening.pdf\" href=\"https:\/\/info.highlandwoodworking.com\/library\/waterstone_sharpening.pdf\"\u003e\n    Highland Woodworking Guide to Waterstone Sharpening\n   \u003c\/a\u003e\n   .
