Glass Stone Set w/ Field Holder 500, 2000, 16000 Grit

Shapton® Glass Stones are harder, faster cutting, and denser than any other ceramic waterstone on the market. The density and high degree of uniformity in the distribution of the ceramic particles results in fast honing at every grit level. Because they remove material quickly, the time required to hold a tool angle on the stone is reduced, making freehand sharpening easier.

Each stone is comprised of a 5mm-thick glass backing plate fused to a 5mm-thick stone. This innovative design uses tempered float glass as a foundation for each stone, giving it a degree of dimensional stability and strength while ensuring that all the abrasive is usable. This set is a great value for those who want a complete set of Shapton stones. The three stones slot into the field holder. In addition, the Shapton Field Holder provides a stable, nonslip base that can be used to hold the stones during the sharpening process.
