5000 Grit
Highest grit in the series, increases polish brightness and will have slightly more of a mirror effect on the bevel than the 3000 grit, it is the best stone grit jump from 1000. It can still raise a burr quickly, not used for repair or reprofiling, enhances push cutting ability over the 3000 grit but still keeps "bite" at the edge. Finish on 1 um diamond spray strop for best results.
