Your 2300 grit stone is the shit!! You out did yourself with it

David, I am glad to see that you gave the Magic Eraser a try. I clean my stones in the sink placing the stone on the divider between the bowls. The approach is to let the stone eat up the Magic Eraser by being a little aggressive with the scrubbing. The metal particles get trapped in the sponge and are lifted off cleanly. Post a good cleaning the stones cut a little faster and feel more aggressive. FYI Hundreds of knives later the stones are showing no wear to speak of and they are best in class. In a professional setting thousands of knives could be sharpened with out wearing the stones out. Using Matrix stones is very cost effective saving both time and money due to long life. Thanks for the video! 😎👍

As long as there is no cross contamination of stone grit sizes I can see where it would not matter much. I clean mine off with Trend Diamond abrasive fluid. A little goes a long ways and wipe off with a microfiber cloth before putting them away after a session of sharpening. Thank you for your time and knowledge putting this video together for us. I know I appreciated it.

I also use naguras on mine. I use a coarse 200 grit and that exact suehiro nagura. Your stones are quite nice. Cheers.

What you said about using the loose slurry is what I've found to be best for me as well. Have a nice day.

Which nagura stone is that?

It is a 1000 grit Suehiro.

I use alcohol and magic eraser too..

Hi, I saw on edge pros website and saw new grits for sale. Is there any chance you'll bring back the 6500 grit? I'd be very interested.

No, because it only worked with the hardest steels or ceramics and the difference between the 4000 and 6500 was miniscule. The issue is the resin isn't right for finer grits. But trying out a softer resin that I tried about 15 years ago is on the to-do list. Think of it as a replacement, if it works, for abrasive loaded leather but with the abrasives built in, both diamond and aluminum oxide.
