These flattening stones are ideal for flattening the surface of sharpening stones that have had a hollow or groove worn in them. A flat stone is vital for a good sharpening job. We offer these stones in 2 different grit sizes, allowing you to match the flattening stone to the sharpening stone in terms of speed in flattening and the smoothness of the finished surface. In principle one stone is all you really need, if you are prepared to put up with some disadvantages. A relatively coarse flattening stone works quickly, but leaves behind a rough surface on finer stones. This does not impair its function, but you usually end up grinding off more material than you need to. With a finer flattening stone, it takes more time, of course, but you end up with a smoother surface.
This 220 Grit stone is recommend for grits from 2000 up to 12000
Size: 170x55x30mm
