Due to difficulty obtaining the natural materials used to make the original Axe Stone, Gransfors researched and developed this ceramic alternative. Known as the Gransfors Ceramic Grinding Stone, this model has comparable properties to the original.
Highly recommended by Ray for sharpening knives as well as sharpening axes, this two-sided Ceramic Axe Grinding Stone has both coarse and fine sides, and is encased in durable rubber, helping to keep the stone in place while in use. The stone is round and flat with a bevelled edge to prevent chipping.
With a coarse side to deal with rough damage, and a fine side suitable for fine grinding and sharpening, this is the only Axe Stone you'll need when out in the field. And with a diameter of 57 mm and weighing in at just 160 g, it certainly won't weigh you down. It makes the perfect partner to the Gransfors Axe File, which is required when heavier damage has been inflicted to your axe.
Details:
- Grain size on coarse side: 180
- Grain size on fine side: 600
- Diameter of stone: 57 mm
- Total weight: 160 g
- Normally used with water, but can also be used dry
- Art. no: 403-4
After sharpening your axe, Woodlore recommend the use of Camellia Oil to protect the blade from rust and corrosion.
