Designed to offer a smooth, precise, and accessible sharpening experience, the Togiba #1000 set embodies the functional elegance of everyday Japanese life. Manufactured in Aichi, a city renowned for its craftsmanship, this sharpening kit has been designed for discerning cooks, whether they are amateurs, enthusiasts, or professionals.
From the very first touch, you can feel the quality of the #1000 stone: its balanced texture allows for controlled, effective sharpening that is pleasant to the touch. The #1000 grit size is ideal for regularly maintaining your Japanese knives without removing too much material, prolonging their sharpness and lifespan. The perforations visible on the surface help to remove sharpening sludge more effectively, reducing clogging and promoting more consistent sharpening.
The set is complete and well-designed: a stable and understated natural wood base, a perfectly sized rigid plastic soaking tray, and even a cleaning eraser to maintain the stone or your blades.
It's a beautiful set, but above all a reliable and enjoyable tool to use. With each stroke of the blade on the stone, you feel a smooth and steady response, ensuring a well-controlled sharpening process. With this set, sharpening is no longer a chore: it becomes a satisfying, almost meditative experience.
