Product Information

Man-made benchstones come in a variety of sizes and shapes and are available in a range of grit sizes: coarse (80-100 grit), medium (150-220 grit), and fine (280-320 grit). Benchstones are durable, wear slowly, and retain their flatness significantly longer than waterstones.

The silicon carbide grade used in Crystolon stones is more durable than aluminum oxide, making the Crystolon silicon carbide stones more aggressive. In removing more metal with each sharpening pass, you can speed up the sharpening process, which is preferred when the speed of sharpening is more important than the fineness of the cutting edge. Long lifespan: w hetstones are durable and long-lasting, making them a good investment for those who sharpen frequently. Speed of Sharpening: Oil stones are generally slower than W hetstones, and because they use oil, they can take longer to sharpen a blade. w hetstones are faster and more efficient, but they can also wear out faster. The ceramic grit in man-made waterstones, the white ceramic stones and Norton’s “India” stones are all aluminum oxide, just like your grinding wheel. Of course, you know that each of these products cuts quite differently. The reason lies not with the actual ceramic cutting particle, but with the matrix that binds the crystals together.

Arguably the best source of these stones is the Ouachita Mountains in Arkansas. But Novaculite is found elsewhere, including in naturally occurring Japanese waterstones. Folks in the 18th century were getting Novaculite-rich stones from what is today Syria, Lebanon and Israel. These modern-day nations were then part of the Ottoman- Turkish Empire, which is where people in the Anglo-American 18th-century world got the term “Turkey Stone.” There are several different types of stones that you can use for sharpening a surface. The type that you choose entirely depends on the surface that you are looking to sharpen. Arkansas stones are a variety of natural sharpening stone, made from novaculite, a variety of quartz with a high silicon dioxide content. These stones are typically mined in the Ouachita Mountains in the US state of Arkansas, hence their name. Dry Sharpening Stones
