These stones have extremely fine grains that cut very slowly for the most control over sharpening. Also known as Arkansas stones.

Stones of different shapes, grits, and materials add a razor-sharp edge to virtually any blade. The holder fits two stones at once, so it’s easy to pivot your blade across both of the stones. To protect unused stones, store them inside the holder. When you’re not sharpening, store the entire holder inside the handle.

The diamond stones are the hardest and longest-lasting we offer. They quickly sharpen blades of any material. Use ceramic after a coarser stone or to touch up blades that are already sharp. The leather-coated stones (strops) create a polished edge after you sharpen with other materials. Start with the suede leather to remove microscopic burs, then sharpen with the smooth leather to refine the edge.
