Made in Japan.
Manufactured by Tsuboman (1867) in Kure City, Japan - close to Hiroshima. This Atoma Diamond Stone is a Japanese top-quality, coarse diamond sharpening stone. You use it to restore the extremely damaged edges of blades or other tools. However, you can also easily use this Atoma stone as a flattening stone for conventional sharpening stones.
Contrary to what is common for sharpening stones Atoma manufacturer Tsuboman has chosen to add clusters of diamond sharpening particles to the steel basis. As such the risk of diamond particles ripping out is a lot smaller. In addition, it leaves enough room to get rid of excess sharpening residue. It might be difficult to imagine with all the small separate islands, but the final scratch pattern in the sharpening result is very even. Furthermore, this sharpening stone is very flat and will last a very long time.
