Description
Because of the convex edge on an axe, they are sharpened differently than most knife blades. You want to maintain that rounded edge instead of putting a bevel on it. For that purpose, Gränsfors Bruks has created this Ceramic Grinding Stone. It has two grinding faces: a course side (180 grit) for repairing damage and heavy wear, and a fine side (600 grit) to maintain the edge. Ceramic composite makes the stone both durable and strong. In contrast to natural stone, it can also be created with a more precise grain size. The round shape and flat surface, with a beveled edge to prevent chipping, is perfect for maintaining that convex edge. The protective rubber case also serves as a “handle” for better grip and to protect your fingers. Normally used with water but can be used dry. Measures 2-1⁄4″ in diameter. Weighs 3.3 oz. Made in Sweden.
