Coarse grit size for thorough sharpening

With a grit size of 220, this sharpening stone is among the coarser types, making it particularly suitable for the initial phase of sharpening. The coarse surface quickly and efficiently removes material from the knife blade, which is essential when you need to restore a very dull knife or repair minor edge damage. This stone lays the foundation for further sharpening with finer grits.

How to achieve the best results

To achieve optimal results, you should soak the stone in water for at least 30 minutes before use. This ensures that the stone is properly moistened and ready for use. During sharpening, it is crucial to maintain a consistent angle on the knife—typically around 12-13 degrees depending on the type of knife. Move the knife down the sharpening stone with even pressure to ensure uniform sharpening along the entire edge. After using this coarse stone, it is recommended to continue with finer grits to achieve ultimate sharpness.

Frequently asked questions

Should I always start with such a coarse stone?
No, only if your knife is very dull or damaged. For regular maintenance, you can start with a finer grit.

How do I know if I'm holding the correct angle while sharpening?
You can use an angle guide at first, or mark the edge with a marker—when the marking has been sharpened away, you have hit the correct angle.
