Hand-shaped, break-resistant natural stone. The hard and durable natural stone is ideal for sharpening well-peened blades with a thin cutting edge. The hard, fine stone must always be used with water.

Fine stone for light material removal
For drawing out and slightly thinning the cutting edge
For honing during cutting and treatment of the blade after peening
Ensures long edge-holding capacity
Creates a fine cutting edge
All-round polished surfaces

We recommend soft artificial stones with a high degree of material removal only for repairs and for mending small nicks in the cutting edge; a fine cutting edge would be destroyed again by its use.

Finnish phyllite

In the village of Västilä in the municipality of Längelmäki (Finland), the stonemason quarries the primary rock, which was formed from approx. two-billion-year-old, former sea bed. Over millions of years, under intense heat and pressure, it has slowly developed into a qualitative stone with excellent sharpening properties. The main components of phyllite are quartz, feldspar and mica. The quality of the stone varies, so all the stones have to be worked individually by hand in order to sort out and separate harder and impure material. With phyllite, even very hard steel can still be ground and sharpened very well.
