Suehiro has been making synthetic whetstones in Niigata since 1 April 1967, when Kenkichi Okumura founded Okumura Whetstone Industry and began selling stones under the Suehiro trademark. A sister company, Suehiro Corporation, was later formed and the two have since merged. The business is still run by the Okumura family and is based in Niigata City.
Suehiro believes that anyone can learn to sharpen, and that a sharp blade makes cooking and woodworking safer and more enjoyable. Its ranges include the CERAX ceramic stones, Gokumyo, Koseki and DEBADO, covering everything from coarse repair to a fine polish. Suehiro stones are known for cutting quickly, giving clear feedback and being easy to use for beginners and professionals alike.

Excellent for maintaining carving tools, this multiform stone is profiled to accomodate u-gouges of 4 different sizes, as well as v- and flat- gouges.
This stone's versatility is further enhanced by the fact that it's flat back can be used to sharpen regular carving knives and other more conventionally shaped edges.
Suehiro has formulated their multiform stones to be very hard, as this maintains the shape of the profiles in the face of the stone. To keep it cutting efficiently, an eraser is provided to clean the stone should any steel from your edges become embedded in it.
This stone measures 98×65×20
