Suehiro "Rika" Finishing Whetstone #5000, US$46.90 (~AU$69) + shipping
The Suehiro Rika 5000 is one of those rare polishing stones that give the user great feedback, while retaining good sharpening speed. It can be used by just applying water during sharpening, but a 5-10 minute pre-soak greatly improves polishing quality. The cut speed of this whetstone performs similar to what many 2000-3000 whetstones feel like. Though not as slow wearing as other 5000-6000 whetstones are, due to its soaking nature, it is not considered fast wearing. Ryky has kept a broken Rika 5000 whetstone in his collection for 4 years, and refuses to replace it with a brand new one.
