Lapping disc SHAPTON 7 cm, Dellinger

Product detailed description

A sharpening stone cares for the edge all its life, so it is only fair that someone services it once in a while too. The SHAPTON lapping disc works as a small maintenance stop for stones that already have some work behind them on the surface and deserve to bring some order back into the working day.

Main advantages:

• The SHAPTON lapping disc helps to keep sharpening stones clean, flat and ready for precise sharpening without disturbing unevenness.
• It serves to clean and flatten the sharpening surface, so you do not have to replace a tired stone with a new one right away.
• Regular lapping removes metal particles trapped in the surface, which could otherwise negatively affect sharpening results.
• The disc has two usable sides - one completely flat and the other equipped with grooves for a different way of working.
• Both sides can be used during maintenance depending on the condition of the sharpening stone and the desired method of cleaning or flattening.
• Simply slide the disc over the surface of the sharpening stone and gradually restore its flatness and the cleanliness of the working surface.
• The silicon carbide SiC abrasive ensures efficient lapping performance and helps to quickly remove the clogged surface layer.
• The 70 mm diameter creates a compact tool that is easy to hold and allows for comfortable control during work.
• The compact circular shape is easy to store together with other sharpening stones and does not take up much space in the sharpening equipment.
• The lapping disc is especially useful when clogged spots or slight unevenness appear on the stone.
• A regularly maintained flat surface makes it easier to guide the blade more precisely and helps to maintain consistent contact with the sharpening stone.
• The disc is not intended for the actual sharpening of knives; its task is to prepare the sharpening stone for further high-quality work.
• The weight of approximately 80 g maintains easy handling and allows for controlled work without unnecessarily heavy accessories.
• It can be used as a practical accessory for regularly used water stones, which need to be cleaned and flattened over time.
• Made in Japan, it follows the SHAPTON sharpening system and complements its stones with a simple tool for ongoing maintenance.
• The lapping disc will be appreciated by anyone who does not want to address only the sharpness of the knife, but also the condition of the sharpening stone itself.
