Naniwa Traditional Stones are one of Naniwa's basic whetstone series.

These stones have been produced for a long time and are a rebrand of the famous DX Stone series, only the name and packaging underwent a change, the stone itself remained unchanged. It is believed that the Naniwa Traditional Stones series of whetstones was created as a low-cost alternative to relatively cheap kitchen brands such as King, for example, which are less expensive and therefore more attractive especially for beginners. However, in its category, Naniwa produces the best inexpensive stones.

The Naniwa Traditional Stones are not as soft as the Naniwa Sharpening Stones 

(Naniwa Super Stone) and do not have such high grain renewability on the 

working surface. They are not as productive as the Naniwa Professional 

Stones (CHOSERA). But Naniwa Traditional Stones have a very solid/hard bond and hold the geometry well when sharpening, and their abrasive ability is only slightly lower than that of the recognized leaders in metal removal 

performance - Naniwa Professional Stones (Chosera). 

Naniwa Traditional Stones is an excellent alternative to many famous series 

of famous brands. This stone is universal and suitable for almost all tool 

steels. Especially Naniwa Traditional Stones stones are good for working 

with high alloy steels.
