{"product_id":"king-pro-medium-800-grit-whetstone","title":"King Pro Medium (800 Grit) Whetstone","description":"\u003cp\u003eUnlike Western (man-made) whetstones, water rather than oil is used on Japanese stones. This is to prevent the surface from being clogged with metal particles. The coarser stones come in grit: 250, 800, 1000, and 1200 grit. The 250 and 800 grit are faster cutting and used for repairing nicked edges or reshaping a bevel. The 1000 or 1200 grit stones are used for the first stage of the actual sharpening. Japanese water stones are softer than Western styles causing a fresh, sharp surface to be continually exposed to the tool edge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42323513933918,"sku":"MG-800","price":645.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4600\/6878\/files\/ab15fa9ef7965935a691e65f47a18d5d.jpg?v=1767618247","url":"https:\/\/thekitchenwareguys.co.za\/products\/king-pro-medium-800-grit-whetstone","provider":"The Kitchenware Guys (Pty) Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
