    do you remember how much they were? i'm going japan soon and if its similar to this price I might just buy it off amazon.
    Also did you get another sharpening related things e.g. flattening stones

      $82 for both. Although, I created a free one month Amazon JP over there, used the hotel address to create it. Then I ordered it to pickup from Familymart (there is plenty of them everywhere). This was cheaper than the knife stores.
      I didn't get any flattening stones as they were too expensive!

  Is it worth getting if I already have a kings 1000?

    Shapton is better quality from what I have been told, but if you have 1000 already no need till it broken.

    It’s harder so has a bit less slurry, will dish out slower than the King, and I expect would be a little easier to learn on.

    Probably not worth the upgrade if you have a king already, but if someone is picking between this and the often-recommended King 1000, this is a better choice

  Hi brains trust, for newbie starting out, what else would you need in addition to this for general home kitchen use. Tia

    I'd recommend a holder. Lifts it up a bit and more stable. Also a leather strop. Can get from Amazon for about $30 with a polishing compound. And angle guide.
