Richard, does the small stone look like the flattening stone shown in this Norton combo on Amazon?
Thanks.
Is anyone else having trouble uploading files? There were two jpg files and each was approx. 3Mb I got a failure notice on both twice.Last edited by phrog; 10-30-2014, 03:33 PM.Leave a comment:

A flattening stone is all that really comes to mind. The flattening can also be achieved like shown in the Rob Cosman video, using wet/dry sandpaper on a piece of glass (in place of the granite plate shown in the video).
Here's some additional info:

Another Japanese Waterstone Question
I just scored an 8000 grit Japanese Waterstone on eBay. A very small stone came with it. I'm told this is used to start the slurry. How do I use it? Is it to be soaked before use also? Does anyone have any links to instructions for use of particular stones. This one is a Arashiyama. The smaller one says Matsunaga. Most of my others are Suehiro. Thanks for any info.
Here is a list:
Ice Bear 100 Flattening Stone (1-1/2" x 3-3/4" x 9-1/4")
Suehiro 800 (1" x 2-1/2" x 8")
Suehiro 1500 (1" x 2-3/4" x 8-1/2")
Suehiro 6000 (3/4" x 2-3/4" x 8")
Arashiyama 8000 (1" x 2-3/4" x 8-1/4")
Matsunaga (1/2" x 3/4" x 3")Tags: None
