It will remove micro-pitting but any chips will require a more coarse stone. This is the average size used for sharpening a dull knife. For use on meats, you may want to continue sharpening with a higher grit but will work great on vegetables.

Naniwa Cleaning/Dressing Stone

---

This small hand-held stone is used for cleaning metal fragments, creating slurry and flattening small flaws. The higher grit stones (5000 and above) really benefit from a cleaning stone. Higher grit stones have a harder bonding agent which causes the abrasives to release more slowly and to be more prone to "loading up" or collecting metal particulate. We recommended that you use a cleaning stone for these high grits. Splash and go, no soaking needed.

Dimensions: Height: 3.2 cm, Length:6.5 cm, Width: 4.7 cm

Naniwa Large 24 Grit Flattening Stone

---

- Dimensions: 11.8 in x 5.9 in x 0.8 in
- 24 grit Coarse carbide stone
- Promotes maximum cutting for all grit sizes of whetstones.
- Produces extremely flat results on all water stones, ceramic or traditional. Flattener and stone should be wet before use. This large flattening stone comes with rubber feet and is designed to be laid flat in a sink bottom while you hold the stone and run it across the flattener. Extra coarse for fast cutting. We use these because of the high volume of hand sharpening. This cuts quickly, but can leave fine grooves in the higher grit stones, which should be smoothed with your dressing stone. For persons doing a more normal volume of sharpening, the large 220 grit provides the benefit of truer flat without the grooving, it just takes longer. (Most flattening stones are around 220 grit)
