Plastic-free Policy:

Japanese Tools Australia is an environmentally conscious company and we endeavour to eliminate plastics in as many parts of our business as possible. Your purchase will be shipped in recyclable non-plastic materials, and we re-use cardboard and paper wherever possible in our shipping process.

Exceptions to plastic-free policy:

Unfortunately, we are required to dispatch some express items in pre-paid satchels and in such circumstances we have no choice but to use a plastic satchel. Please keep in mind these satchels are 100% recyclable. Our suppliers also use plastic in their packaging of some products, and we do not remove these protective measures before shipping. We are considering strategies to eliminate these two remaining sources of plastic in our shipping process. As many of our items are hand-made, they do not arrive to us or to you with extraneous packaging, though this is not the case for all of our products.

Breakage in shipping policy:

We pack our shipments in specialised materials to ensure that our customers find them in the same condition that we send them. If you receive your products in a damaged condition, please email info@japanesetools.com.au with your order number and photos of the condition of the products within a week of collection. If an item is deemed to have been damaged in transit we will replace it with like kind at no extra shipping cost to the customer.

If you are unhappy with the condition of your product and it has not been damaged in transit, please refer to our returns and exchanges policy. 

Description

Beginning with the #3000 grit stone, the Cerax range enters the realm of honing and polishing. A polished finish can be achieved with a steady hand and flat bevel on the #3000, and if the back has been well flattened, the edge should be able to take hair.

Suehiro's Cerax water stones are are some of the finest quality Japanese sharpening stones to be found on the market. Cerax's premium ceramic abrasive works quickly even when presented with very hard steels, while the stones' binder finds a neat compromise between revealing fresh abrasive and reducing excessive wear.

Thanks to its excellent efficiency and durability, the Cerax range has won accolades both in Japan and around the world, and is now Europe's most popular water stone series.

Description:

  • 3000 grit
  • Dimensions of 207mm x 70mm x 20mm
  • Housing with rubber feet for stability while sharpening and ease of storage
  • Protective cover for storage
  • Perfect for kitchen knives

*Submerge stone in water for at least 5-10 minutes prior to use.

Do not keep this stone in water for long periods of time.

3000 grit sharpening stone.

I have used the stone a number of times for putting the final polish when sharpening plane blades. It gives a superior finish to that attained with black arkansas. I I haven’t had to level it yet but I expect that will be easily achieved on a diamond hone which I bought from you some time back.

A brilliant intermediate stone

This is a brilliant intermediate stone I use between 1000 and higher grit stones. It provides great 'feel' and is a real pleasure to use. With its stable base and included nagura, it's an unbeatable package in my view. Add in JTA's super-efficient service and you can't go wrong. Thoroughly recommended.

cerax #3000

Hi, this stone, along with the cerax #8000 and a #3000 nagura was a birthday present to myself having only recently started taking wood work and joinery techniques seriously and i could not be happier. Everything, especially the help and advice over the phone, price, to the shipping time to the products themselves, everything is faultless. the only addition i will be making for the time being is one of their #800. I only wish i knew who it was who helped me order, their knowledge of their products is outstanding and genuinely nice to talk to. thank you guys i couldn't recommend you enough
