Niwaki's founder, Jake, travelled to Japan in the late 90s to explore the cherry blossoms there and draw inspiration from them, intending on a career as a sculptor. He was instead fascinated by the tools that were used to prune and shape the gardens of Japan, and his focus shifted towards bringing those to our western gardens, having spent a year working in a rural plant nursery near Osaka. Niwaki's tools are designed and made to last a lifetime, and have the highest functionality possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e#1000: fine, for regular sharpening - the most useful stone for regular sharpening: if you only get on stone, make it this one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcave bottom design fits to the curve of Niwaki blades perfectly, especially secateurs, ensuring great sharpening results every time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe flat face(s) of the stone are ideal for shears and topiary clippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoak until the bubbles stop rising before use (c.3 mins)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBe careful not to drop them – they will crack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the #1000 grit for a few minutes every week to keep your secateurs in top condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight: \u003c\/strong\u003e136g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/strong\u003e131 x 20 x 23mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Niwaki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48190673027126,"sku":"jhg1792397232740","price":19.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0752\/0953\/9638\/files\/niwaki-sharpening-stone-1000_1.png?v=1792397241","url":"https:\/\/compassclad.shop\/products\/niwaki-sharpening-stone-1000","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
