The Hitohira WA #320 Soft is a medium-coarse Japanese synthetic whetstone, ideal for edge repair, angle correction, or initiating a deep sharpening session.
Made from white alumina abrasive and clay binder, it provides a soft yet efficient cutting feel. Crafted in Kyoto, it requires a 10 to 15-minute soak before use. Its large size (218 x 84 x 31 mm) and hefty weight (nearly 1.2 kg) offer excellent stability on the bench. A reliable stone to start your sharpening workflow with confidence.
