Like traditional water stones, we recommend soaking the stones in water prior to use. Being a traditional water stone, these stones sharpen quickly.

Q. Do I need to soak all of the stones in water before use?

A. Yes, all of the stones will benefit from soaking in water prior to use. The 120 and 1000 will need more water while the 3000 doesn’t require much soaking before hand. We do not recommend that you store them long term in water, only soak them before use.
