Description

Suehiro "Ouka" Finishing Whetstone #3000The Suehiro "Ouka" #3000 Whetstone, sometimes (incorrectly) known as Rika #3000, has the same great feel and smoothness of the Rika 5K, but cuts a bit faster. The #3000 stone is an in between grit that is probably not needed if you already have a 1K and 5K or 6K whetstone, but can serve as a bridge stone between a 1K and 8K whetstone. The biggest benefit a #3000 whetstone serves, is it can be used for those who like to touch up their knives daily, or

The Suehiro "Ouka" #3000 Whetstone, sometimes (incorrectly) known as Rika #3000, has the same great feel and smoothness of the Rika 5K, but cuts a bit faster. The #3000 stone is an in-between grit that is probably not needed if you already have a 1K and 5K or 6K whetstone, but can serve as a bridge stone between a 1K and 8K whetstone. 

The biggest benefit a #3000 whetstone serves, is it can be used for those who like to touch up their knives daily, or every 2-3 days.  Starting your sharpening on a 1K whetstone is fine for relatively dull edges, but if your knives are fairly sharp, going on a 1K whetstone more than once a week would wear the knife down faster than necessary. Carry on the Rika lineage within the Suehiro professional family, the "Ouka" Whetstone #3000 offers great durability, reliability and sharpening satisfaction.

Pre-soak for between 5-10 minutes before use, and apply water on surface during sharpening when needed.  Rinse and wipe dry with a hand towel when done, and allow air dry at room temp. Do not leave in water.

How to clean:

If the stone’s performance is slowing down, or seems to be diminishing, you can clean using a rust eraser, nagura stone (included), dressing stone, or a flattening plate. Be sure to clean the entire surface of the whetstone when using any of these methods to ensure even wear of the whetstone’s surface.

Well Constructed Toy But Short-Life Squeaker
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
Super cute and durable toy. Makes a "grunting" noise that my dog loves. However rating a little lower because my dog has only been playing with it (gently) for a couple weeks and the grunting noise is starting to die. But she does really like this toy regardless!

Cute and soft dog toy!
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
This very cute armadillo dog toy is nice and soft for our Golden Retriever to carry around in his mouth. He eventually likes to pull off the legs, ears, or anything else extending from the body of the toy and so far he hasn’t been able to do so with this one. Not saying that it’s not possible, so as with any toy, you should monitor your dog playing with it as we definitely have to. He also likes to continually make his toys squeak and this toy’s squeaker works very well!

Great Toy for tiny to giant pups
Color: Gray, Size: 8 IN
Cute Amarillo. My teacup Yorkie uses it as a pillow or chases and attacks it. Well stretched does not easily fall apart. Good value for the money. Suitable for all sized dogs.

Fun dog toy, but not for heavy chewers
Color: Pink, Size: 14 IN
The armadillo is cute. My pittie, Sasha, was very excited to see it. She just had TPLO surgery on her left knee (she tore her ACL just before the 4th of July), and I wanted to get her something she could play with while she convalesces, that isn't a ball—she really likes to run and jump and chase the ball, but with her knee out of commission, I didn't want her to get depressed being trapped in her crate while she heals—with this toy, she was able to keep playing and not over excert herself and get more hurt. It quickly became her favorite toy; she chews it relentlessly and gets made when I take it from her (see below). It makes a funky squeak that's not a high-pitched squeak, like I thought it would be; it's more a low-pitched, lowing sound like a baby calf. One thing I would like to point out to other purchasers about what the description says: "Durable and Long Lasting - Made from premium soft materials, our cute plush dog toys can withstand rough play for indoor or outdoor and last for years to come. The textured surface also helps massage and soothe your dog's gums during playtime" This is a little misleading. It's a good texture and Sasha loved to play with it, but it wasn't very durable. It might be when compared to other chew toys, but not for my baby. She tore the nose off within 20 minutes of getting it. The next morning, she ripped off an ear, and I had to pull the stuffing out of the face so she wouldn't eat it while chewing away. She doesn't seem to mind, but I sure wish it had held up a little more. All-in-all, this was a good toy for a few days.

Cute durable dog toy that my puppy loves
Color: Blue, Size: 8 IN
This small light weight dog toy is very durable, super cute, and my dog loves it. My dog tears everything up but he hasn't made a dent in this; very durable and chew resistant. He seems to really like that it makes a lower squeak noise. I threw this in my cart at the last minute before checkout and I am pleasantly surprised with the quality. I would say this toy is worth the price; suitable for small to medium sized dog.
