Product description

The Shapton Kuromaku #2000 is used to refine an already sharp edge. It removes the scratch pattern left by a #1000 stone and smooths the very tip of the edge.

A #1000 grit stone produces a sharp and practical working edge. Moving to #2000 reduces the depth of the scratches and evens out the edge further. The result is a cleaner cut and improved cutting control, especially in kitchen use where precision matters.

The finer surface also strengthens the edge by removing small irregularities left by coarser stones. This helps create a sharp but stable edge suitable for regular use.

Like all Kuromaku stones, it is a splash-and-go Japanese ceramic sharpening stone and requires no soaking. The hard ceramic material resists wear and helps maintain a flat surface over time.

The #2000 completes a typical sharpening progression: #320 → #1000 → #2000, moving from repair to sharpening and finally to refinement.

We offer all three stones as a complete set for those who want a practical system for sharpening and maintaining their knives.

FAQs

Can the #2000 grit be used on its own?

It can be used to refine an already sharp edge. However, if the knife is dull, it is recommended to start with a #1000 grit stone before finishing with #2000.

Does a #2000 grit make the edge fragile?

No. The #2000 grit refines the edge while maintaining durability. It creates a smoother cutting feel without making the edge overly delicate.

Does the stone require soaking before use?

No. Like all stones in the Kuromaku series, it is splash-and-go.

What is the advantage of finishing at #2000?

Finishing at #2000 reduces the scratch depth left by #1000 and smooths the edge further. This results in a cleaner cut and more controlled slicing, particularly in kitchen use.

Is this suitable for outdoor and hunting knives?

Yes. While many outdoor knives work well with a #1000 finish, #2000 provides a smoother edge for those who want a cleaner cut without sacrificing durability.

Why choose Roselli?

  • I bought my first Roselli knives in 1990

    I bought my first Roselli knives in 1990 – the Carpenter’s Knife and Grandmother’s Tooth. These knives have accompanied my wife and me all over the world. The quality of Roselli products is outstanding. Today, I own several Roselli knives and axes, and it’s time to try the free sharpening service. Thank you for still making such wonderful, handcrafted products.

    Michael

  • Excellent craftsmanship!

    I have purchased several knives and and axes with accessories directly from Roselli and from Finnwerk in Germany. I use them myself and have also gladly given them as gifts to the delight of the new owners. The quality of the craftsmanship is excellent. The lifetime warranty and unlimited sharpening service are unique features that other manufacturers do not offer. I can only warmly recommend every single piece of this craftsmanship.

  • I'm completely satisfied

    I'm completely satisfied – the blade is sharp and well-balanced, the handle is excellent, beautiful, and perfectly sized for a secure grip. Using your knife is a great experience every day. TOP!!!!

    Fabio

  • Had mine for 7 years!

    I bought a kitchen knife from Roselli about 7 years ago – and the sharpness lasted impressively long! Around a year and a half ago, I had it sharpened locally. I've now used Roselli’s sharpening service for the first time, and I’m very pleased with the result!

    Juho

  • Never without my Roselli!

    Never head out without my Roselli, at least one of them. They all hold a good edge. My 19 inch Axe splits firewood like butter and my Grandfather knife is always on my belt, if not my Heimo. Good steel and comfortable wood handles.

    Raf

  • I own 10 knives from Roselli!

    Over the years, I have bought many knives of various types from various companies. That changed when I got my first knife from Roselli. I was thrilled and realized what a proper knife should look like. Since then, I have had 10 different knives from Roselli, including kitchen knives and also an axe. Amazing quality and craftsmanship. I highly recommend them to everyone.

    Milan

  • Roselli is irreplaceable!

    I have been using Roselli knives for about 2 years. Great for survival, preparing meat and fish, and also good for bushcraft. Roselli's steel is extremely compatible with fire steel. I also love the history of Roselli. For me, Roselli is irreplaceable.

    Kouya

  • Best small bushcraft knife!

    The Carpenter is the best small bushcraft knife I ever had. Beautiful, comfortable, light as a feather, has a very good edge geometry and factory sharpness, and keeps that edge for a long-long time. And when it's time to strop, it takes no time to get that scary edge back. My other purchase was the Hunter. The handle is a bit too big for my hand, but I love the bladeshape very much. I can definitely see why it is such a popular knife! I will probably buy a blade and make my own handle to fit me better. I will definitely get a Carving Knife and a Roselli Axe too!

    Bence

  • I have almost all of Roselli's knives!

    I now have almost all of Roselli's knives and the axe with a short handle, all of them are simply fantastic.

    Franz

  • Great Quality & Support

    I'm very satisfied with the quality of the products I purchased, and the customer support for inquiries and questions was excellent!

    Gianluca

  • Absolutely thrilled!

    I make knives myself (including with Roselli blades!), so I can really appreciate how finely and carefully Roselli’s knives are made. I bought two knives for woodworking for my workshop and I’m absolutely thrilled!

    Tomas

  • Has not left my side since it arrived

    I have made two easy and flawless purchases from H Roselli. This is an excellent brand with superb products. My latest purchase is the classic hunter. It has not left my side since it arrived. My wife makes fun of me for it. I surely like it a lot! I haven't skinned any moose with it but I did open a package or two. Now is the time to buy before tariffs kick in.

  • Would buy again anytime.

    Would buy again anytime.
