A four stack Nano Hone #200 Whetstone and Universal backing plate – this is a lovely coarse stone for fast removal of metal, suitable for repairing chips in blades or putting a first edge on a very blunt blade. All coarser stones wear a bit more quickly than finer grits and so Nano Hone has fused together four #200 stones - giving the life of four but at a fraction of the cost of buying them individually.

Nano Hone have incredibly precise production techniques, as indicated by their slogan "Our world is flat", and their whetstones and sharpening system is absolutely top notch

Ideally use with the Nano Hone Stone Stage NH10, although with the aluminium backing plate, it can also be slotted into an Ito stone holder.
