**Outlet: These stones have a few hair cracks, but it is just cosmetic and they don't cause major damages, like falling apart.

It is a medium fine stone after using a medium grit (#1000, #1200, #1500 or #2000)

It has nice nutural stone feeling to it

It cuts faster, lasts longer and offers better result than other #4000 stones

    Suzuki-ya's #4000 stone is one of the best stones I have ever used. Exceptionally nice feedback and quite smooth feeling in use. Leaves a very fine and uniform scratch pattern. Easy to use the whole stone. Very dish resistant and amazingly fast cutting!. I highly recommend this stone.
