The Suehiro "Shiramine" #6000 Whetstone, sometimes (incorrectly) known as Rika #6000, is very much true to the Rika 5K performance and popularity. It is a responsive polishing whetstone and a pleasure to use. It is a great choice for those who want a soaking polishing whetstone, but want something a little finer than the Rika 5K, and enjoy a polishing whetstone that offers great feedback and cutting speed.
If you already own the Rika 5K, and looking at the 6K, Ryky would recommend skipping this 6K stone, and considering the Super Fine 8K. It is also one of the few soaking polishing whetstones in it’s grit range. As usual the "Shiramine" #6000 carries on the Rika lineage within the Suehiro professional family, and offers excellent durability, reliability and sharpening satisfaction.
Made in Japan
The stone is mounted on an aluminum blank
