“Very fast stones. The feel is different than on other stones of well-known brands. Despite the given gradation, the stones leave a much better and smoother finish, without large scratches. They do not require soaking in water, just spray and you can work. They are quite hard so they will not wear out so much and will stay flat for a long time. I am happy with the purchase.”
“Quick test on a renovation knife. I worked mainly on a piece of the blade and with pressure on the shinogi line, wanting to check the speed of cutting steel and the appearance of the scratches that these stones leave. I'm glad I bought them. The stones are rather made of harder ones. They cut quickly, mud appears immediately. After using the atoma 140, I didn't notice that the stones were worn out quickly. Steel parts do not clog the pores of the stones and wash off nicely. I had a feeling from working the knife on the stone similar to Shapton's Rockstar. As for stones below 1000 grit, they are quiet, which is why at 220 you have to check often what you are doing because it cuts steel quickly 400 is also nice, quickly removes scratches from lower grit. 800 is even quieter and leaves a much smoother surface. Seriously, I had a feeling like from working on 1000.”
