Using water as a lubricant, it offers effortless sharpening with less pressure and easy cleanup. Its compact 1x8x3 inch size, combined with a non-slip holder, ensures stability and precision. Crafted by Norton, a trusted brand since 1885, this stone delivers superior performance and mirror finishes, making it a must-have for any serious kitchen or workshop. ## Description Product Description The Norton 8000-grit waterstone creates an abrasive slurry for effective sharpening, with 8000 grit for polishing steel cutting edges; this 1 x 8 x 3 inch (H x W x D) stone, suitable for bench use, cleans up easily with water, and comes encased in a blue plastic hinged box. (H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.) The box protects the waterstone and provides a reservoir to keep it moist. The removable box lid, with no-slip rubber feet, acts as a sharpening station to hold the waterstone in place during bench use. This synthetic waterstone is created by grading abrasive material to a consistent particle size and blending it with bonding agents. It is then molded and surface-finished. Waterstones have a finer grit and softer bond than oilstones, and use water as the lubricant to develop a slurry, a thin paste of abrasive grains and water that removes metal with less pressure than an oilstone requires. Cleanup is easier than with oil as lubricant. This stone conforms to the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) for waterstones. Sharpening stones, or whetstones, are abrasive surfaces used to sharpen and hone the edges of steel cutting implements such as chisels, knives, scissors, hand scrapers, and plane blades. Sharpening is the process of creating or re-establishing a cutting edge by grinding away portions of the metal to adjust the angle of the edge and reform the shape. Honing removes small imperfections. Stones can be flat, for working flat edges, or shaped, for edges that are more complex. Sharpening stones are made of natural or synthetic materials that range from softer to harder, and are categorized by the size of their abrasive particles, known as grit. A stone with a coarser grit is used when more metal needs to be removed (e.g., when sharpening a nicked or very dull blade); the stone with the finest grit produces the sharpest edge. Where numbers are assigned to specify grit, they range from coarser grit (low) to finer grit (high). Some sharpening stones are designed for use with a lubricating liquid, some can be used dry, and others can be used either wet or dry. When used with lubricating liquid, a sharpening stone can be called a waterstone or an oilstone, based on the lubricant required. Norton Abrasives manufactures sanding, grinding, and polishing abrasives, and has been located in the United States since 1885.

Review: Excellent product - I have used this product for sharpening. I cuts fast, and is easy to use. Review: Nice Mexican Stone to Think About - No problem with this, #8000 natural stone is a quality, what you pay for and get. It is hell of the deal, when purchased on the discount, my stone was actually discounted, still very cool for the price. Except one thing, it's not a Japanese water stone, it's not an American-USA eater. This particular stones are being found in Mexico, it is Mexican water stone, if it matters. Not Arkansas. It is softer than Naniwa #8000 grit stone, in comparison and requires a bit different maintenance. I also noticed, that Mexican stones go well with abrasive oil and aluminum-oxide paste, like DOVO, but Japanese generally do not. I put some water on it,.and I put some DOVO-paste like I would use a classic leather strop. In ten minutes your edge will shine, like a glass. ## Features - Revitalize dull knives and other cutting edges with this 8000 grit waterstone, great for establishing razor sharp edges, polishing, and perfecting the job - This waterstone, also known as a whetstone, can be used to create an abrasive slurry - a timeless and unsurpassed knife sharpening method - Using water as lubricant instead of oil, this whetstone is easy to clean and actually requires less force to sharpen than an oil stone - This tool and knife sharpening whetstone is 1 x 8 x 3 inch size (H x W x D), is great for use as a bench stone for kitchen knives, a utility knife, tools and more - Includes a sharpening stone whetstone holder and case with rubber feet that allows easy and safe stabilization when sharpening ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000H6JDFU | | Best Sellers Rank | #647,975 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #1,351 in Sharpening Stones | | Brand | Norton | | Color | Yellow | | Date First Available | May 2, 2004 | | Department | Unisex-Adult | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00614636895086 | | Grit Type | Extra Fine | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 2 pounds | | Item model number | 61463689508 | | Manufacturer | St. Gobain Abrasives | | Material | Stone | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 7.4"L x 3.3"W x 4"H | | UPC | 614636895086 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Norton - **Color:** Yellow - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00614636895086 - **Grit Type:** Extra Fine - **Item Weight:** 2 Pounds - **Manufacturer:** St. Gobain Abrasives - **Material:** Stone - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Product Dimensions:** 7.4"L x 3.3"W x 4"H - **UPC:** 614636895086 ## Images ![Waterstone, Knife Sharpener Whetstone, Extra Fine Grit Sharpening Stone for Knives, Pack of 1 Yellow - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51UppuV6g1L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this stone completely removeable from the plastic case and base?** A: Unlike the Japanese Stones,this stone has no base be it wooden or plastic.

I cuts fast, and is easy to use. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Mexican Stone to Think About *by T***L on June 17, 2014* No problem with this, #8000 natural stone is a quality, what you pay for and get. It is hell of the deal, when purchased on the discount, my stone was actually discounted, still very cool for the price.

I hear a lot of people say not to keep these in water, but I keep mine in water for about a year now and it has stayed as hard and unbroken as a rock. I think the problems may have to do with the stone bumping into other stones or the edges of what they're kept in, but I think that keeping them in the box it comes in helps to protect from that. ## Frequently Bought Together - Norton Waterstone, Knife Sharpener Whetstone, Extra Fine Grit Sharpening Stone for Knives, Pack of 1 - Norton Knife Sharpener Whetstone - Japanese Sharpening Stone with 4000 Grit Stone and Sharpening Stone Holder - Norton Waterstone Flatstone, Flattening Stone with Stone Holder and Case, Pack of 1 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/7394483-waterstone-knife-sharpener-whetstone-extra-fine-grit-sharpening-stone-knives](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/7394483-waterstone-knife-sharpener-whetstone-extra-fine-grit-sharpening-stone-knives) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
