Hakuto

Medium hardness, they are ideal for creating softer bevel changes and finishing full convex grinds. Given the available grits are only medium to high grit, Hakuto 1 stones are best left for use after initial, coarser work has been completed. 

Recommended for advanced users.

These thin (2.5mm) options are more affordable than the standard thickness (3.5mm) but will still sharpen for a very long time.
