Would love to see more videos like this in the future.

I bought two koppa after watching this video! Thank you for this awesome content, can't wait to try them 🙂 ( SHOUBUDANI 370-420 & AIIWATANI 380-420)

Have fun!

Very straightforward info... definitely helps when you remove a lot of the jargon...much as when first approaching wine...the language used by some is intimating... though useful to those who understand it...it leaves newcomers out in the cold... Great video!!!

My setup King 300 Chosera 800 Imanishi Natural Aoto somewhere around 2k to 3k Roszutec Natural that gets me to just over 6500 in Japanese Grit

Big fan of the 800 Chocera and Aoto as well!! We have a few natural Aoto on the harder side that have been fun to work with too.

Which stone are your favourite between Shobudani and aiwatani

What are the dimensions of the aiwatani?

I'm just getting into kosher slaughter and we need natural stones. Any recommendations for an entry level stone or set?

This video just talked me out of getting natural stones

Are good for a aogami 2 steel?

There is a few variables to be mindful of such as the smith's treatment of Aogami and the natural stone you pair with it, but overall we've had great success sharpening Aogami 1 & 2 (and even Aogami Super, though it can be a bit more finicky) on softer natural stones around 3-4 hardness. Honestly, finding an affordable options like one of our short or irregular sized assorted stones is a great way to dip your toe in the natural stone water without spending hella $$$ to see if you like the results on your knife. Feel free to send us an email at info @ bernalcutlery .com if you would like some recomedations.

That was great . I just bought one and had no idea . I can’t wait now . This is art . Also I like the in depth , if people want things simpler , they can go fk themselves.

Thanks Franck!

Maybe you meant for the video to say polishing rather than sharpening? You did talk briefly about sharpening but really you spent the video polishing. Still a nice primer to things and I always send people your way for first stones as I think your grading is accurate and sides/prices are reasonable. Maybe for an actual sharpening video showing how the swarf generates for different hardness/fineness/fastness would be valuable rather than the polishing aspect.

No sharpening, at all :) But great premlimary JNAT info. Thank you.

To over complicated explanation keep things simple
