Norton 1000/4000 grit Combination Waterstone
These stones vary from the Japanese in two key areas.
The grit size is just a bit coarser. (There is no International Standard for grit sizes)
The bonding agent is softer than a premium Japanese stone. I don't know that they actually wear faster though, because they produce results much more quickly. I really like the finish produced by the 4000 grit and we use it regularly.
We actually like these stones quite a bit. Nice size, sturdy plastic box that also serves as a stand for the stone. Be very careful to not push the edge into the stone. Draw the knife towards you with the edge facing away. Please call or email with any questions.

RH Preyda 1000/6000 Combination Grit Arkansas Stone
Precision Engineering Meets Natural Performance: The Ultimate 1000/6000 Dual-Grit Arkansas Stone For the professional chef or the serious tool enthusiast, a knife is only as good as its edge. The RH Preyda 1000/6000 Grit Combination Arkansas Stone represents the pinnacle of natural sharpening technology. Unlike mass-produced synthetic stones that wear down quickly and require frequent flattening, this stone is crafted from natural Novaculite—a rare, silica-rich rock found only in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas. This unique mineral composition provides a dual-benefit that synthetic stones cannot match: extreme abrasiveness for rapid metal removal and incredible hardness for long-term stone flat-retention. The result is a 'quicker dull-to-sharp' process that saves you time and ensures your high-carbon or stainless steel blades receive a consistent, razor-sharp edge every time. The Versatility of Two Stones in One This 8" x 3" powerhouse features two distinct grits bonded into a single, convenient block. The 1000 Grit Surface: Designed for the initial sharpening phase. This side is aggressive enough to reset a dull edge, remove micro-chips, and establish the primary bevel without removing excessive material. The 6000 Grit Surface: Once the edge is established, flip the stone to the ultra-fine 6000 grit side. This surface hones the metal to a mirror-like polish, refining the edge for surgical precision in slicing, dicing, and detail work. Built for stability, the stone includes a non-slip silicone base, ensuring your sharpening strokes remain steady and safe, whether you are working in a fast-paced professional kitchen or a home workshop.
