Sharpening stone 4000 SHAPTON GLASS, Dellinger

Product detailed description

A good edge has a unique ability to change perspectives. What seemed sharp to you only last month will, after a while, begin to feel a bit unsophisticated. SHAPTON GLASS #4000 certainly does not solve this problem - rather, it elegantly deepens it. Once you discover how satisfying the meticulous fine-tuning of a knife can be, returning to 'this is enough' is rarely easy.

Main advantages:

• The Japanese SHAPTON GLASS #4000 sharpening stone is designed for fine sharpening and finishing the edge after the initial sharpening phase.
• The JIS #4000 grit with a particle size of 3.68 microns helps create a smooth and precisely guided edge for a clean cut.
• The stone works well as a follow-up step after coarser grits when you want to refine the bevel and remove traces of previous sharpening.
• The exceptionally fast sharpening and polishing effect reduces the time needed to finish the edge and makes regular care of quality knives more enjoyable.
• High sharpening performance also enables efficient work with harder steels that require a high-quality and stable sharpening surface.
• The ceramic sharpening layer is laminated onto a tempered glass backing, which helps maintain an exceptionally flat working surface.
• The extreme flatness of the glass base provides stability during sharpening and is especially appreciated when working with wider blades.
• The solid glass backing also prevents unwanted bending of the stone and supports confident guidance of the edge during work.
• Extremely low wear extends the lifespan of the stone and helps maintain a flat surface even with regular use.
• No prolonged soaking is required before sharpening - simply moisten the working surface with water and you can start practically immediately.
• The dimensions of 210 x 70 x 10 mm provide a comfortable working surface for standard kitchen knives as well as longer and wider blades.
• The slim design of the SHAPTON GLASS series makes handling and storage easy, so multiple grits won't take up unnecessary space.
• The stone can also be used with oil, but this method of use is not recommended for regular sharpening.
• In addition to kitchen knives, you can also sharpen wood-working tools or gardening equipment with a metal edge.
• You will appreciate the SHAPTON GLASS #4000 when the knife is already sharp, but you want to further refine and polish its edge.
