This **Shapton Glass Stone grain 30000**should be a part of a completely different category. This ultra-fine sharpening stone is comprised of sharpening particles as small as half a micron! With this sharpening stone you remove all tiny scratches and irregularities. The result is an edge that is so smooth as a mirror and with which you can cut without feeling any resistance. The sharpening stone sharpens quickly and evenly. Which is exactly what we're looking for from a high-quality sharpening stone. Contrary to what you might expect from the name, the glass doesn't do the sharpening. You sharpen on a high-quality Japanese whetstone. A layer of tempered glass is attached to this to prevent bending. 

This stone is suitable for sharpening almost all types of knives. From outdoor knives to kitchen knives, from pocket knives to chisels. These stones really come into their own with hard steels in particular. Think of the modern powder steel types that you will find with pocket knives in the high segment.

## Shapton Glass Stone Splash & Go

This sharpening stone really is *splash & go*. That means you don't have to submerge it in water before use. Simply sprinkle some water onto it and the sharpening can begin. It removes material quickly, so the sharpening process is quick and easy. This also means the stone doesn't wear out as fast. The glass plate ensures you can use the stone right to its limit, further increasing the lifespan of your sharpening stone. Even as the stone gets thinner after years of use,

## Shapton Glass Stone

The sharpening result is very even. The sharpening particles, made from white aluminium oxide, are very uniform in their shape and size. The minuscule "scratches" you add to your edge with this stone are therefore very even. You won't find it causing larger scratches that are difficult to file away with a finer grit. Sharpening enthusiasts truly appreciate this. This *Shapton Glass Stone* is quite simply one of the best sharpening stones on the market.

Es una piedra de calidad increíble solo apta para usuarios que ya sepan afilar y que pretendan alcanzar el más alto nivel de pulido en sus biseles, incluidos los cuchillos de cocina de la más alta dureza 

The Shapton 30k is a very good stone, barely takes any water and polishes pretty quickly. I use it for straight razor honing and it works perfectly well. After I am done on this stone, only thing left to do is strop them on leather. The edges end up being super keen and also comfortable.

Overall, I am very pleased with the upgrade, my thick beard & face says thousand thanks!

Tres bonne pierre de tres bonne qualité permet de faire un tranchant poli miroir comme je l'attendais 


Mooie steen .  Om te polijsten!
Eigenlijk is het toch wel aan de dure kant. Voor het polijsten gaat ie erg lekker lang mee.
Ikzelf heb een 1000 grit steen een keer laten vallen, kunnen ze niet goed tegen ..
Heb nieuwe gekocht. Dus opletten geblazen!
Al met al heb de 30000 gekocht en hij is goed om er mee fijn te werken.
Ikzelf zat al eerder te denken om een leren strop aan te schaffen maar heb toch voor de polijst steen gekozen.
De allerbeste afwerking nà de polijststeen even op een stapel kranten aan te zetten. Duurt niet lang en dan is het lemmet zeker braamvrij! 
ik ben er blij mee en dat is het allerbelangrijkste!
Groet,
Chris

For the casual sharpener, this one is already beyond the point of diminishing returns, but it offers a clean and consistent way of getting a fine apex on low-alloy steels, followed by clean balsa or leather. Very expensive, but conversely it wears extremely slowly since it is meant for the lightest of touches and works at a sub-µ scale.

The material that gives the sharpening stone its abrasive effect. Diamond, ceramics (e.g. aluminium oxide or silicon carbide) or the materials in a natural stone. Read [more about the advantages and disadvantages of these materials](/en/ct/sharpening-stone-materials-which-are-the-best.htm).

Abrasive

stone_binder

The agent that brings all the abrasive particles in a sharpening stone together. The cohesive agent usually consists of natural products, such as cellulose, wax, clay and even magnesium, or synthetic products such as: polyacrylates, polyvinyl alcohol or various synthetic resins. The cohesive agent itself usually has no abrasive effect.
