    Default Henckels Hone

    I saw a J.A Henckels hone on sale at the knife shop in the mall today, its a 3k,8k combo. Just wondering if anyone has used this one and if it compares to the naniwa or norton combos. On sale its about the same price. Thanks.

    I remember someone on here talking about these once, and I seem to recall they are rebranded hones from some other maker I've heard of, but I can't remember who it was or who originally makes the hones...

    I am guessing it's this one:



    I don't know if that helps much. The copy says no soaking.

    IIRC they are quite expensive and better value is to be had.

    I confirmed the stone is confirmed to be identical to the 3/8k Superstone made by Naniwa.
