RH Preyda - Bench Stone Translucent Arkansas 6"

Approximately corresponds to the grain size 8000 to 10.000. The Stone Bench Stone Durchscheinendes Arkansas 6 has the dimensions 1550.8 x 50.8 x 12.7 mm, so it is half an inch thick. Delivery in a convenient wooden box

Please note that "translucent" does not necessarily describe the appearance of the stone, but is the general term for this quality class. Even translucent stones can be white to light gray and completely opaque, but they have exactly the same quality and peeling properties as slightly translucent specimens

ATTENTION: ARKANSAS OIL STONES SHOULD NOT BE USED DRY OR WITH WATER! ->

The oil stones from RH Preyda are hand-cut in Hot Springs in the Ouachita Mountains/Arkansas, the only place in the world where these deposits are found. The unique microcrystalline structure ensures that Arkansas oil stones with their fine grains are extremely wear-resistant and unlike other wet sharpening stones, they never need to be dressed or leveled

Made of Novaculite, these stones are based on 99,9% pure silicon, which only in this special form exhibits the unparalleled sharpness properties. Depending on the selected quality class, sharpening results can range from coarse to ultra-fine, satisfying even the most demanding user. The sharpening oil provided by RH Preyda is absolutely non-toxic and food-safe (USDA approved), allowing for safe use even with knives used for food preparation. In the case of Arkansas oilstones, the distinction is not made based on grit size, but on density. The denser the stone, the finer the sharpening result
