Naniwa「Burrfection Edition」專業#800/3000 組合石套裝

The 800 and 3000 are not available anywhere in europe ! If you can get them they are over
£100 per stone ! Ok these are a bit thinner , but they are a total bargain at less than half the price of the two thicker naniwas
This deal is so good i bought two sets !
Some idiot may break one , but they will never wear out , buy with confidence

Study Results: After about 20 sharpening's on different steels I characterized the performance in terms of speed and feedback by scoring them between 0-5 with VG-10 being a 3 for both categories as a baseline. I then summed the two scores (total is between 0-10) and plotted the steel hardness against it's estimated carbide volume. For steels with a score >5 I considered them to be "good" candidates for sharpening on these stones. Scores =5 were "borderline" and <5 were "poor" performers on the stones in terms of feedback and speed. What I found is that there was a line between the good and poor steels based on hardness and carbide volume. The attached chart can then be used to determine if these will be suitable for your sharpening needs.

Pros: After the study I have done another 30 sharpenings. They are definitely high end stones that perform well. They both cut fairly quickly for their grit rating when compared to average abrasives but still slower than high end soaking stones. Neither slurries very much at all but the 800 to 3K jump will still leave a nice hazy polish that is attractive. Both stay pretty flat with very minor dishing after 3 sharpenings but I usually flatten after each use with a worn 140grit diamond plate for about 30-45s.

Cons: 800 is still a bit slow cutting and both stones will glaze and benefit from dressing after a few uses. Very little slurry generation on either stone.

Overall: Great stones for Pro or serious sharpeners that will cut almost any steel and stay pretty flat. I recommend a lower grit stone than the 800 even for small reprofile jobs but it will repair a very dull but not damaged edge with ease.

I'm learning to use the stones now. As said in the many videos Ryky has produced it's a rewarding experience when you start to get right. To see your knives just glide through a sheet of paper is awesome. This stone set (8000/3000) and the leather strop, I previously purchased, are a great starting point. I use an old cutting board, the whetstone holder and a small bowl of water. That along with the stones is all I need and it saved a lot of money.

The Stones i bought are just perfect, i was able to get my 2 selfmade damascus knifes razer sharp in 20 minutes!
I ordered on monday evening and got it wednesday afternoon, really really quick shipping and really good packing, everything was wrapped in bubble wrap and neatly packed so that nothing can move around.

Overall just perfect!

Wonderful stones. Followed Ryky's videos and was able to get the best results I've ever achieved on the first use. Love the way you can feel and "hear" the edges on the stones.

I'm new to high level manual knife sharpening, but found these two stones a perfect fast easy way to accomplish both 'quick' routine kitchen knife tune-ups (Henkles) and more involved careful sharpening of my nice Japanese knives.

My only suggestion is to provide separate cases - or a separating sheet (I made my own from ABS sheet) to protect the stones from rubbing together (this may just be my OCD). I searched and found the Naniwa Stone Boxes in 3/4 inch to fit these ($9.00 on SharpeningSupplies.com). I also bought a 1 1/8" box for the Cerax stone which should have come with box. You do have to cut out the internal ribs some to get the stones to fit, but at least you have a proper storage box.

I have been sharpening for almost a year, but only German knives. The stones seem excellent (and shipping was very fast), and I used them just a couple of times. I have the doubt that for German knives there is not much difference compared to the basic Naniwa stones I use (1000/3000 combination, 25 euros). So, this is a great opportunity to try out Japanese knives. I decided to start with the medium-carbon Tojiro DP VG10, 21 cm.
We'll see

I’m only new to the sharpening game, having used some generic ones of Amazon, wanting to step up my game with these stones. After watching the video how to sharpen your knife like a pro on YouTube I was keen to try them out.

I am blown away and the feel and the sharpness level I am getting now.

Highly recommended

This 800 and 3k combo works wonders. Tough stone that cuts quick and forms a beautiful slurry. I think i prefer 800 to 1k or maybe it’s just that Naniwa stones really are that good. My gyuto falls through everything like a katana now. Highly recommend to all that are looking for high quality stones. Depending on what you want, you may not have to get any other stones but that is just my opinion. Easily 5 stars out of 5.

What an amazing set of stones. The quality is why these stones are so popular. The edge that they leave are amazing. They are so carefully packaged and I appreciate that from the store. They make sure you get your stones without any blemishes or chips. Overall a great experience. Gonna buy more later

I have decades of experience sharpening tools, straight razors and knives with chosera 1k. The 800/3k is a revelation. This is now my new favorite go-to stone progression. I've got plenty of good options with diamond, King, Shapton & Seuhiro, Otani, etc. However, this 800/3k is current the one I enjoy most. I also appreciate the value of the reduced thickness (plenty since they are slow wearing). Thank you for your insight and this offering.

Ryky suggested this combo set as my starting point for getting into whetstones and sharpening. I could not be happier with the quality and effectiveness. I am thinking this not just a starter kit, but it will serve 99% of all my needs far into the future. These stones are going to be all I need.

The 800 cuts like a 700 and finishes like a 1,000. Unsurprisingly the 3000 cuts like a 1000 and finishes like a 5000. So really you’re buying 6 stones in the form of 2. Dude math.

Used the set already! It works a treat…just have to get my technique down Pat now!

I'm new to Japanese knives and sharpening them. Love this set so far!

Put a stunning edge on my knives. I was able to slice the thinnest slivers off a sheet of paper with no hangs. I also purchased the rolled buffalo strap with the strap pastes. Extremely well packaged and the whole set-up reeks of quality. I was thoroughly impressed with Burrfection shopping experience and will support them moving forward.

These are excptional quality stones with wonderful feedback. Storage case that comes included is very convenient for safely storing the stones and allowing excess water/residue to drip free. I have also used these stones to sharpen my pocket knives. Very Impressed.

Products are as described and work fantastic! Shopping with burrfection was a great experience.

I'm really impressed with these stones.
Only worked with Suehiro so far and these seem like an upgrade to my cerax 1000 and rika 5000.
Fast shipping and decent packaging although the box was partially damaged on arrival.

The stones are amazing. I am relatively new to this but I do recognize the quality immediately! Watched your A to z video and now my knives are sharper than ever by far!!! Looking forward to getting good at this!!! It sure separa tes the bad steel from the good. Don't waste time on low end soft steel and be extremely careful with good sharp knives!!! A soft touch will cut you!!! These stones will produce razor sharpness on good knives!!!!!!!

I have 5 wet stones already when I purchased the Naniwa Ryky edition. These splash and go stones are really very good. The length is perfect for knives up to 270 mm (imho)
Effortless to bring the edge on.

Was planning to sharpen 2 knives and I ended up sharpening 8 because it’s so easy

These stones are the only stones you’ll need to maintain a razor sharp blade. I would know because I cut myself after I sharpened my TF Denka 😅

Great tactile stones that came in a neat package! #800 shaves off material like a beast. The #3000 is high enough grit to somewhat polish your edge. Highly recommend!

Just learning to freehand on whetstones. I decided to get something better and these are so much better. Love these. Thanks for the combo stones at a more affordable price. They're just a little thinner, but with the frequency that I use them, should last a long time. Thanks to the videos I'm getting some very sharp knives and enjoying the process.
