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.

As the coarsest stone in the Cerax range the #320 grit stone is essentially a grinding stone, designed to remove large amounts of material from the edge of chipped, rusted or damaged blades, and leaves visible scratches in the abraded material.
The Cerax water stone by Suehiro Niigata Japan is renowned for its fast cutting surface and its longevity. Not only is it Europe's best selling water stone, it also has a very solid reputation in Japan and the rest of the world. Widely used across the woodworking and culinary professions; these stones are made from slow-wearing ceramic particles which act as the perfect abrasive for high carbon steel and tool steel alloy such as Vanadium and Chromium.
The Cerax Water stone is one sided with a grit of #320. This stone is used for taking large amounts of material of your chisels, planes or knives. For example, when you have a damaged tool like a chipped chisel, you would use this stone to take the chip out.
The housing is complete with rubber feet for safety, stability and ease when sharpening. With features to suit an array of uses, it is easy to see why the Cerax Water stone is a best seller.
*Submerge stone in water for at least 5-10 minutes prior to use.

I originally ordered the complete kit which became out of stock. Lisa provided fantastic customer service and pointed me in the direction of this and the 6000 grit cerax stone.
I’ve just given a knife that I’ve been re- profiling a touch up on the 1000grit… wow! I’m very happy. Thanks guys!!

Excellent feedback, feel great to use and a great starting kit to get a mirror polish on your knives. Cleaning is easy too. Great soaking stones!

This is another outstanding Cerax stone, fantastic for dull or slightly damaged edges and used in conjunction with the Cerax 1000 & 5000 produces a fantastic result every time.

Lovely stone. A joy to use. So much so I've purchased Cerax 800, 6000 and 800 from you. I'm improving my sharpening technique and these stones are helping.

Very Quality Set. Comes with included appropriate grit flattening stones. Bases haven't slipped once even while wet. Very Nice Set

I've been looking for some time for a replacement for my old King 320 grit waterstone. The Cerax had good reviews and I can see why. The stone performs very well considering it's price. The storage box doubles as a secure work base and bath for the initial soaking. Very clever design. JTA prices are very competitive and their service is excellent. Will definitely source more of the Cerax range from them. Peter K.

I purchased the set for sharpening the schools chisels and planes. I am very impressed with the quality of these stones for sharpening.

Ended up with incredibly sharp chisels. I had two in bad shape so using the 800 to try to improve e them was a bit of mistake, should have used a grinding wheel first to get the chips out. Great stones tho. Highly recommend getting a glass plate and sanding paper to
Keep the stones dead flat. Over All splendid item

Very happy with this purchase. Arrived quicker than i anticipated. Very well wrapped, no way this sucker was getting broken in transit. First use was a dream. Micro bevel was as sharp as it was shiny. 100% would buy again
C
Totally in awe of the customer service...slight mix up with the order and fixed in a blink of an eye. The quality of the waterstone is apparent from when first you unwrap them. Now what to buy next???

This Stone is a Pleasure to use , it is a fast stone and loads up nicely giving a nice slurry to help with the sharpening process.
Might be on the soft side but to an advantage with the sharpening and feedback this 1000 gives .
Liked it so much i have the #320 & #3000.

The stone works very well. It’s cut fast as #320 should do. Parcel was delivered in two days, which was great. Previously I got the #3000 stone of the same make and it is also works perfectly. These stones are not required Nagura stones as they are easy releasing grain and slur start to form in just several strokes. The Cerax stones are not tolerate the excess of pressure applied on your tools/knives as they would “dish” out, but with reasonable pressure they work fantastic.
D
Prompt and trouble free delivery. Product well packaged and entirely as described; it is well designed, very tactile and a joy to use.

Very happy with product.
