Smith's 10cm (4in) Natural Arkansas Sharpening Stone gives a fine, polished edge on pocket, hunting, fishing and kitchen knives, and works on chisels and other cutting tools too. The 1,000 grit stone measures 10 x 2.5cm (4 x 1in) and is mounted on a moulded plastic base with a removable lid. The base keeps the stone from moving while you sharpen, and the lid protects it when it is packed away.
Why it works
- Fine 1,000 grit natural Arkansas stone for a refined, keen edge
- Sturdy moulded base stops the stone slipping for safer sharpening
- Removable lid protects the stone in a pack or drawer
- Compact and lightweight, ideal for hunting and fishing gear
Care
Use with a honing solution to protect the stone and prevent clogging. After each use, clean with water, liquid soap and a stiff nylon brush to keep it free of stone and metal particles.
