So I'm about to buy a naniwa 12k stone and was checking out SRD and sharpeningsupplies.com, when I noticed that on SRD the stone is pink, and on the other site, it's pictured as white. Are they different?

I've got the white one. To my understanding, the white one is the newer version of the stone.

There have never been put anything up by Naniwa or any other source about any difference except the coloring as far as I have seen.
10xSuppress,
My first Naniwa 12k SS was pink; my new one is white.
Have fun !

Its OK the white ones are 12.001K :rofl2:
Mine is the Pink one...
Nic, I was pretty sure you would know that the Pink coloring has a slightly Higher grit rating then the White so the Pink Naniwa is actually 12.002 K Muhahahahaha
:nj
Russ you should have kept the Pink one :rofl2:
@the OP we are kidding there is no difference that I have ever seen ....
Haha! I actually contacted SRD and they said the same as you guys. White one is just the newer version :)
the mine is white
Glenn,

My pink 12k was broken by my cat Max - he knocked it off my workbench; why & what he was honing in the middle of the night escapes me !
Have fun !
Best regards

His claws Russ, he was honing his claws.
Mine prefer a coticule but find it hard to use the slurry stone.
