1Stone Tatsuyama sharpening stone: precision sharpening for freehand enthusiasts
The world of freehand razors is a fascinating and rich universe of tradition, where the quality of the tools is essential to achieve excellent results. The 1Stone Tatsuyama sharpening stone is a high-quality semi-synthetic sharpening stone.
The Tatsuyama stone, with a grit of 1000/6000, was developed in collaboration with a Japanese manufacturer and made by combining natural stone powder with a hybrid polymeric binder. The stone is cut, assembled, polished, and buffered in the 1Stone laboratory, guaranteeing an exclusive and high-quality product.
The 1Stone Tatsuyama sharpening stone comes in a practical cotton bag with a hemp drawstring closure. The packaging is entirely handmade and made in the 1Stone laboratory.
Features and use of the Tatsuyama stone:
Sharpening stone dimensions: 200 x 75 mm
Weight: 860 gr
To use the 1000 grit stone, it is necessary to immerse it in water for only 2 minutes (as shown in the photo). After this time, the water will remain on the surface and it will be possible to start sharpening. The stone has a medium hardness, so it is important to be careful not to remove too much metal during use.
The 6000 grit stone, on the other hand, does not require immersion in water (Splash&Go) and offers a quick and precise pre-polishing action. To achieve an optimal result, it is sufficient to make a few passes on the 1000 and 6000 grit stones.
Strengths and weaknesses of the Tatsuyama stone:
Pros: speed and ease of use, representative grit, and no negative surprises
Cons: it is necessary to wait 2 minutes for the 1000 grit stone to saturate with water, but afterwards the water will remain on the surface
In conclusion, the 1Stone Tatsuyama sharpening stone is a high-quality, fast, and precise sharpening stone, suitable for both regular and occasional use. Thanks to its special ceramic composition, it allows for precise sharpening and quick pre-polishing, ensuring excellent results even when transitioning from 1000 to 6000 grit. Choosing Tatsuyama means relying on a complete and finely crafted product for the needs of freehand razor enthusiasts and lovers of the perfect cut.
