Debado Professional Whetstones

Debado stones are non-absorbent whetstones intended for professional use. Made one at a time with great care by Suehiro, a small company of 18 employees in Niigata Prefecture, Japan.

These fired non-adsorbent whetstones use a propriety manufacturing process first developed in 1967. Since then, these stones have seen continuous improvement. They are easy to use whilst providing superior performance.

These stones create a sharp edge on high-hardness steels with minimal effort. Their durability is superior to other stones, ensuring a very long lifespan.

Whilst professional-grade, these whetstones are also ideal for home use. These stones are an investment that will pay dividends over the lifetime of your cutlery.
