Naniwa Chocera Pro 800 Whetstone

The Naniwa Chocera Pro 800 Whetstone is our staff pick for the best overall sharpening stone, offering the perfect balance of cutting speed, control, and versatility. Handcrafted in Japan, this #800-grit splash-and-go whetstone bridges the gap between coarse and fine stones, making it an outstanding choice for both edge restoration and everyday maintenance. Its magnesium-bond composition provides a dense, smooth surface with excellent feedback, fast cutting action, and long-lasting flatness. Measuring 210 × 70 × 20 mm (8.25" × 2.75" × 0.8"), it’s ideal for nearly any kitchen knife, and especially well-suited as a single-stone setup for most Japanese knives and all German knives. Durable, consistent, and satisfying to use, the Chocera Pro 800 delivers professional-level results with every sharpening session.
