These glass stones are great for quick sharpening. Just sprinkle some water on top and start. Rinse off when done, dry, and put back in the case.

Awesome bench stone. Everything I was hoping it would be. Great finishing stone for kitchen as well as EDC knives.

Shapton works perfectly with my takamura.( see my review at takamura petty) Btw, I have #500, 2000, 3000 and 6000. I wish Sharpton had #1500.

I purchased my much beloved Shapton Glass 500 stone while I was in NYC almost two years ago now. I also purchased a 2k and 16 stone with the field holder. After approximately 800 knives the 500 grit stone is almost down to plate of glass. The quality of the stone is unquestionable, it still works today as good as it did on my first knife. It truly has been an exceptional water stone and If I was in NYC today I would purchase two more. The 2k Stone probably has another 2-3 years of life left.

As it says, I think #2000 is the ideal grit after fixing the edge with a rough #500 stone. I own the #500 Shapton as well. I used to be really lazy about sharpening my knives but it actually got quite expensive getting them sharpened at a store. I can sharpen my knives right before service and there's no weird smell from the stones.

Decided to get just one glass stone for now. I've been hearing a lot about them and I can see why! I never really liked sharpening but this makes the process much faster and easier. I like that I don't have to soak them and it's true that they don't release as much odor as other types of stones.
