I purchased 10 shapton waterstones from the guys and it was a very simple process. Professional service and advice, I purchased other shapton products from them and couldn't be happier with the service. I would recommend and I will be back for more

I've been using Japanese water stones for a decade or so, but felt the glass stones are barely anything more than a gimmick. I was so wrong! I absolutely adore this stone. It makes a quick work of sharpening badly worn knives and is less messy than soaking stones. Plus, it looks nice :)

Bought it thinking it would speed up hand grinding small bevels. Unfortunately it totally does not work for that. It cuts very slowly (A2, PM-V11), require constant flattening to loose some abrasive to cut, otherwise it just get very even and leave blade more polished than my 300/1000 grit trend stone, both of it's sides! Eventually I have no use for it.

If you have any repair work or a re-profiling then this stone is ideal for you, otherwise I would go for a higher grit level as this removes a lot of metal. Great stone and typical Shapton quality (that is exceptional). Shaptons suit me great because they're 'splash and go' so no need to soak the stones which I don't have time for.
