Eight-piece sharpening stick set

This set contains eight rectangular sharpening sticks made from green silicon carbide. Each stick measures 5.92 inches long and 0.47 inches square. Grit ratings span 80, 180, 240, 320, 400, 800, 1000 and 3000 for material removal through to fine finishing.

Check material suitability

Green silicon carbide is softer than white corundum, so it is intended for preliminary or non-fine grinding only. Verify that your workpiece material and desired finish match this abrasive characteristic before ordering. The rectangular profile reaches narrow grooves and detailed areas.

Hand-wash care requirement

The stones are not dishwasher safe; clean them by hand to preserve the abrasive surface. The eight-piece assortment lets you progress through successive grits without pausing to reorder. No holder, lubricant or angle guide is included in the package.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and is anything else needed to start sharpening?

The set includes eight rectangular green silicon carbide sticks measuring 5.92 inches by 0.47 inches, covering grits from 80 to 3000. No extra stones are required, though a lubricant such as water or oil is recommended during use.

Which grit should I choose for a dull kitchen knife versus a fine polishing job?

Start with the 80 or 180 grit stick for heavy material removal on a dull blade, then progress through 240, 320, 400 and 800 for refining the edge. Finish on the 1000 or 3000 grit stick for a polished, razor-sharp surface.

How does the 5.92-inch length perform when sharpening longer chef's knives or workshop tools?

Each 150 mm stick provides enough surface to maintain a consistent angle along a typical chef's knife or chisel. The rectangular 12 mm cross-section also lets you reach into narrow grooves or serrations that wider bench stones cannot access.
