Code: 63SADAProduct detailed description
Complete Shapton RockStar #1000/#3000 Professional Kitchen Station sharpening set
From restoring the edge and fine finishing to a clean and stable workspace. Five carefully selected products for sharpening high-quality kitchen knives at home.
Shapton RockStar Professional Kitchen Station is a complete sharpening set for regular care of both European and Japanese kitchen knives. It includes two separate Japanese Shapton RockStar sharpening stones, an adjustable RISAM holder, a non-slip mat with a water-catching edge and a Shapton 0505 cleaning disc.
The JIS #1000 stone restores the cutting performance of a normally dull knife and creates a new working edge. The JIS #3000 stone then smooths the marks left by basic sharpening and provides a finer finish to the cutting edge.
The RISAM holder securely fixes the sharpening stone in place, the rubber mat catches water and sharpening slurry, and the Shapton cleaning disc helps keep the sharpening surface clean and functional. This gives you a complete working station without the need to purchase the basic accessories separately.

The double-sided Shapton 0505 silicon carbide cleaning disc helps remove metal particles, sharpening slurry and dirt from the working surfaces of the stones.
Five separate products in one set
Each component has its own role during sharpening—from creating the edge and applying a fine finish to providing a stable workspace and regular sharpening-stone maintenance.

Complete equipment without additional purchases
The package includes both sharpening stones and all essential working accessories. The #1000 stone creates the edge, #3000 applies a fine finish, the holder provides stability, the mat catches water and the cleaning disc helps maintain the sharpening surface.
Sharpening in two consecutive stages
1. Restoring the edge on the JIS #1000 stone
The #1000 grit is used to restore the sharpness of a normally dull knife, create a continuous cutting edge and remove minor signs of wear.
2. Fine finishing on the JIS #3000 stone
The #3000 stone smooths the marks left by basic sharpening, refines the cutting edge and helps achieve a smoother and cleaner cut.
How to use the set correctly
- Lay the non-slip mat on a flat and stable work surface.
- Place the RISAM holder on the mat and secure the Shapton RockStar #1000 stone in it.
- Wet the surface of the stone with clean water. Do not use oil.
- Sharpen both sides of the edge evenly and maintain the same angle throughout.
- Once a continuous cutting edge has formed, replace the #1000 stone with the #3000 stone.
- Use lighter pressure on the #3000 stone and finely finish the edge.
- Rinse the knife and dry it thoroughly immediately.
- Clean the stones with the Shapton 0505 disc as required and allow all components to dry separately.
Practical advice
Sharpening is not about force, but about precise blade guidance and a stable angle. Gradually reduce the pressure on the finer #3000 stone and perform the final strokes very lightly.
When is the #1000/#3000 combination not enough?
The #1000 and #3000 stones are intended primarily for normally dull kitchen knives and regular home maintenance. Deeper chips, a severely neglected edge or a significant change in geometry may require a coarser sharpening stone.
For faster repairs, you can use the Shapton RockStar JIS #320 before the #1000 stone.
Who is the set suitable for?
- beginners who want complete equipment for manual sharpening,
- home cooks who care for high-quality kitchen knives,
- owners of both European and Japanese knives,
- more experienced users who require a stable and clean workspace,
- anyone who wants to clean and maintain the stones regularly.
How to use the Shapton 0505 cleaning disc
Wet the cleaning disc with water and move it across the surface of the sharpening stone using light, even strokes. It helps remove trapped metal particles, sharpening slurry and dirt that can gradually reduce the abrasive performance.
The disc has one flat and one grooved working side. Both sides can be used. Do not apply excessive pressure during use, and rinse both the disc and the stone regularly with clean water.
Cleaning disc and stone flattening
The Shapton 0505 disc is suitable for routine cleaning and light maintenance of the sharpening surface. For a significantly dished stone, a larger flattening plate is more suitable for precise, full-surface levelling.
Care of the sharpening set
- Shapton RockStar stones do not require prolonged soaking—simply wet their surface before use.
- After sharpening, rinse the stones, holder, mat and cleaning disc with clean water.
- Allow all components to dry separately at room temperature.
- Do not store damp stones in a closed container.
- Clean the mat with a soft sponge or cloth without aggressive cleaning agents.
- Before each sharpening session, check that the stone is firmly secured in the holder.
Safety notice
The set is not intended for ceramic knives. During sharpening, guide the blade in a safe direction away from your fingers, place the holder on a flat surface and work without excessive pressure. Store all components out of the reach of children.
