Natural whetstone with 2 grains. Useful for all kind of knives (pocket and kitchen)
The stone should be soaked in water for about 10 minutes before each use.
Dimensions: 20 x 3.5 x 1.5 cm
Natural whetstone from the French Pyrenees.
It is composed of 2 grains:
-a medium grain useful for sharpening (to take up the edge of a dull knife)
-a fine grain useful for maintaining the edge (to take up the edge of a knife that is still cutting)
As these are natural stones, there is no defined grain size.
This stone does not require any particular maintenance. After a certain period of use and if necessary, you can clean the stone with a washing-up liquid, by brushing it under hot water.
Advice: see the page "maintain your Laguiole knife".

An item that corresponds to my choice. Very happy to use French stone! And to offer some. (Translated review)

The stones are perfect in size and grain, and immediately proved their effectiveness on steel blades. There's no point in racing to use super-fine-grained artificial stones, which in any case lead to a fatally fragile edge, lost after 10 serious cuts... And you end up with the same excellent sharpening as with natural stones! And sharpening with natural stone is a real pleasure, a real satisfaction in use. (Translated review)
