What is the difference between honed white and white?

Honed white is like a very light warm beige. White, is a brilliant white, spotless....surgical.

There is a slight shade difference. Flip between the pictures looking carefully and you will see it

honed white will have just a hint of grey cream. White will be bright white. Some will call the white (extra white).

The box and stone I received have no indication of the actual grit, so I'm a little surprised Babson had this information available in his response. Also, the gray is clearly coarser than the orange side, so start gray and finish orange. I have obtained better results with honing oil than just water and my knives are are all now easily sharp enough for every kitchen need.

Kinda, but if you look at the white version you can really see the difference.

I don't know, but it is not clear, I got just as white as I do with the Coppertone that has zinc oxide. I did not like this product!

I prefer the white. This would be a personal selection, though. I use mine to blanche my veggies for canning and freezing. I had an old one I bought many years ago and it has since worn out....had a couple holes in it. If this one lasts as long as the other one, I will be more than satisfied. It will probably outlive me. :)

Toto Cotton White matches more closely Kohler White. Not sure, but I believe Colonial White matches more closely American Standard White. Toto will tell you which white to get if you are trying to match another white.

The 120 has coarse diamond, medium diamond, and flexible honing stations. The 130 has medium diamond, steel, and flexible honing stations.

Yes, although you will only see some increased gloss and maybe very fine haze/scratch removal on white. The polishing oils will deepen darker colors but have no real optical effect on white.

They are white. Not dull. They will come together so you will have to separate to get them individually. It's a good buy for the money

Generally there are two common types of honing stones, aluminum oxide and silicon carbide. If you have a more specific reason for asking I will try to help with a more detailed answer.

mineral oil works just fine and much cheaper. all these honing oils are basically the same thing and for some brands,all it is is mineral oil.

Sorry I don't know the answer, I bought the white because that was the advice I got from a recipe.

Hi,brushed vs. polished,im afraid that dictionary doesnt give me the cognitive meaning, but i think its close to brushed stanless steel. if u can afford to elaborate the difference of them a bit more, i will follow up.

Mine looks white, but I have not purchased other pieces with which to compare it.

White ceramic is similar to a very fine grit. You can use soap or abrasive cleanser like Comet to remove any accumulation of metal which will restore its effectiveness. Soap will remove a lot of the metal, but an abrasive cleaner will remove nearly all metal and give you the best improvement. A ceramic sharpener like this one will last several decades of use. I've been using mine for more than 20 years.

The ones I got are white. I am not sure, if there are any Clear see models of it.
