About whetstones
“Whet” means to sharpen, and sharpening a blade on a stone is known as stoning. For centuries, Japanese knives have been sharpened using natural stones and water. Japan’s rich deposits of fine-grained silicate stone make it particularly well suited to honing and refining a knife’s edge.
