Sharpening Stone 2000 & 5000 Grit - Messermeister

Messermeister sharpening stone 2000 & 5000 grit – fine honing and polishing

The Messermeister Polishing Stone 2000 & 5000 grit is a combination stone for regular maintenance of kitchen knives. It gives an extra fine finish and a mirror-polished edge, and suits chefs and home cooks who want to keep their knives sharp and precise.

The 2000 grit side keeps the edge sharp, while the ultra-fine 5000 grit side polishes the blade to a smooth, gleaming surface with little resistance when cutting. The surface is clog free, so sharpening stays even, and the silicone base keeps the stone steady on the counter.

Note: The polishing stone may leave small scratches on the side of the blade.
