Key Features & Benefits
- Premium silicon carbide abrasive — delivers fast stock removal for quick edge shaping with minimal loading on the stone surface.
- No oil required — use dry or with water, eliminating the mess and maintenance of traditional oil stones.
- Dual-sided coarse/fine grit — sharpen and hone on a single stone, flipping between coarse for reshaping and fine for finishing.
- Flat surface design — maintains consistent blade geometry across the full sharpening stroke for even, repeatable results.
- Durable construction — Norton’s bonded abrasive construction ensures the stone maintains its flatness and cutting ability over extended use.
When to Use This Stone
This 100mm stone bridges the gap between pocket stones and full bench stones, offering enough surface for controlled sharpening without taking up bench space. The coarse side reshapes dull or damaged edges while the fine side produces a working edge suitable for immediate use. Norton silicon carbide stones are a reliable choice for woodworkers, chefs, and tradespeople who need a no-fuss sharpening solution that works straight out of the box.
