    Default Chosera 1K out of stock

    Does anyone know of a Chosera vendor in the US besides SRD, ChefKnivestogo and Jende? I decided to buy one and SRD and ChefKnivestogo are out of stock. Jende only has the 1/2 thickness version.

    Just an alternative solution the Shapton 1K is great for bevels and almost half the price of the Choresa 1K.

    I've got Shapton 500, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, & 30K...still use the Chosera 1K exclusively for bevel set on the straights, seems to be a lot easier on the spines and really fast with a light slurry. I then go to the 2K shapton for about 10-20 passes before the 4K.

    Thank you and God Bless, Scott

    I just odered Chosera 1K for a bevel setter yesterday from these guys.

    Naniwa 'Chosera' waterstone, #1000. : Tools from Japan, Japanese woodworking tools direct from Japan.

    I have never used them for anything else before but the price was good.

    Looking forward to setting a few bevels.

    I would email the vendors and ask when they expect the 1 K's back in stock. It may be only a week or so.
