Fällkniven - DC3 Diamond/Ceramic Sharpening Stone with Leather Pouch

Fällkniven - Diamond/Ceramic DC3 Sharpening Stone

We are excited to introduce something that everyone has been waiting for - a combined diamond/ceramic sharpening stone that meets all your sharpening needs. The newly developed sharpening stones DC3 and DC4 consist of a fine diamond stone (25 microns) and a very special ceramic stone made of synthetic sapphires. The advantage of these materials, even as they wear down, is that they maintain their flat shape, which is important for sharpening the knife. And since these materials are the hardest we know, they will sharpen any steel, even those extremely hard powder steels. You do not need any lubrication for these stones, but from time to time you should clean them with warm water and liquid soap. The stones may feel rough at first, but will become smoother/better over time. A leather case is included in the delivery

Dimensions: 25 x 75 mm
Weight: 38 g

"How to use your DC sharpening stone"
If your knife is dull, we recommend starting with the diamond stone. After you have restored the edge to its original shape, lightly deburr the edge with the ceramic stone to achieve a razor-sharp edge. Do not use oil or water. Start by laying the blade flat on the stone, the blade surface approx. to raise the thickness of the blade and move the knife in circular motions

The Ink Trick
Paint the edge with a felt-tip pen. You can track your progress in sharpening the knife by observing where the color is being removed

How to check the sharpness
To check the sharpness of your knife, lightly draw the edge across your fingernail. If it cuts, the knife is certainly sharp enough for most tasks

Burglary period
Upon delivery, your new DC sharpening stone appears very coarse. This roughness disappears with the use of the tool
