Sharpening Equipment

Water Stone, 800 Grit (Coarse)

We’ve used water stones in our shop for years and find them to produce the sharpest edge in less time than any other sharpening system. Because water stones are softer than other stones, the surface is worn away and fresh abrasive is continually exposed.  The result is a consistently fast cutting surface. Keep these generously sized, professional quality stones soaking in water and re-flatten occasionally on a flat abrasive surface. 1 1/4″ x 2 5/8″ x 8 7/16″
