Shapton Sharpening Stones
Furnished content.
(from WoodNet.net)


Been helping agood friend andFellow W'dworker is closinghis hobby shop. Age and medical issues are taking a toll. He showedsome Shapton stones and told me to pick what I need. Some are in unopened plasticcases.

Stones are: No-Kuromaku ceramic:

320 grit
1000 grit
1200 grit
2000 grit
5000 grit
8000 grit

Have no information about these stones except thatShapton is high quality. What would be good grit choices for chisel and plane sharpening? Or, would it be better to pass and let him sell all the stones as a six stone set?

Appreciate any advice.
