Shun Leveling Stone restores a sharpening stone’s working surface when repeated use has worn a hollow into it. A flat whetstone makes it easier to keep consistent contact with the knife while sharpening.
At a glance
-
Whetstone flattening
This is a tool for maintaining the stone surface, rather than a substitute sharpening stone for the knife.
-
Grooved face
The grooves give removed whetstone material somewhere to collect while the surface is being flattened.
-
Water-based use
Use the leveling stone with water and follow the preparation instructions for the particular whetstone.
Find your fit
Check the whetstone for uneven wear before beginning a sharpening session. Our whetstone-flattening guide explains how to recognize a dished surface and plan maintenance.
Care and storage
Rinse away abrasive residue after use and let both tools dry appropriately before storage. Do not assume every whetstone accepts prolonged soaking; follow the instructions for the stone being flattened.
