Ceramic Waterstones
Ceramic Sharpening Stones, also known as "splash and go" stones, are a type of whetstone made from non-porous ceramic materials. Unlike traditional waterstones that require soaking before use, these stones just need to be splashed with water, making them ready for sharpening almost instantly. This feature offers a significant advantage in terms of convenience, cleanliness and efficiency. Prized for their durability, ceramic stones typically lasting longer than traditional waterstones of commensurate grits. Effective for sharpening a variety of blades, including those made from exceptionally tough steels, ceramic stones provide an excellent balance between cutting aggression and polishing power.

Naniwa 400 Grit Professional (Chosera) Stone
The Naniwa Professional 400 Grit Ceramic Stone is the coarsest stone in the Professional series. This stone is designed to cut very quickly and to remove a lot of steel. Although ceramic stones are by nature less aggressive than traditional or oil stones this stone does move a sustantial amount of steel. We recommend this stone for re-profiling, reshaping and thinning blades, removing chips, repairing tips and other heavy work that requires quick cutting. The 400 grit can also be used as an initial stone for confident sharpeners who want to speed up their work, but we don't recommend using this as your go-to primary stone. This will leave a fairly rough edge that needs to be followed by a smoother stone. We'd recommend moving from this stone to a 1000 grit before you finish on a high-grit polishing stone.
