KING Finishing Whetstone F-3 #4000 – Compact Japanese Medium-Fine Sharpening Stone with Plastic Holder (Slim Type)
The KING F-3 Finishing Whetstone #4000 is a compact version of the F-1 medium-fine finishing stone, designed for portability and space-saving use.
It delivers the same #4000 grit sharpening performance as the standard F-1 model, making it suitable for edge refinement after medium grit sharpening stones.
This stone is positioned at the entry point of the finishing stage, providing a controlled and balanced edge that prepares the blade for higher grit polishing stones such as #6000 (S-1) and #8000 (G-1).
Its slim and compact design makes it ideal for mobile sharpening setups, small workspaces, or as a secondary finishing stone for professional chefs and sharpeners.
This is a splash & go type whetstone that does not require soaking. Simply apply water to the surface before use and reapply water during sharpening.
