Keep your knives sharp and, like a sharp axe, they will reward you with efficiency, safety, and ease of use.

These stones — of exceptional quality and Japanese craftsmanship — are renowned for providing an extremely fast and razor sharp edge, all the while their synthetic composition is designed to sharpen like a natural stone and is specially hardened to preserve a flat surface over repeated use. The Bester stone is wider than most other synthetic stones which provides for more stability when sharpening larger tools (chisels, plane blades, and axes). The Bester sharpening stone series are manufactured by Imanishi Stone Manufacturing Co. in Kyoto, Japan and are extremely limited in supply in the United States.
