Benefits of a #2000 Grit Stone
- The 2,000 grit stone is still considered a medium stone. It is not as abrasive as the 1,000 or 1,200 grit stones, therefore it will take longer to sharpen.
- We recommend the #2,000 grit stones for those who prefer to sharpen knives very often (everyday or every other day), because it doesn't work off as much material as the lower grit stones.
