The double-sided Pyrenees knife whetstone with wooden base is very practical, as it allows complete sharpening of all your knives.

It is made from Pyrenean schist from Ariège, in the Saurat valley, where the last natural whetstone factory is located. This water stone, with its two different grain types, helps sharpen the edge of your blade.

A genuine knife sharpening stone, it can be used dry, but we recommend that you use it with water; in this case, contact with the blade will be a little gentler.
To sharpen your knife blade, simply rub firmly, alternating each side of the cutting edge, while moving it along its length, trying to maintain an angle of around 20°.

Smooth finish: the stone is water-polished using an abrasive belt. This stone has a grain size equivalent to 1000.
Grainy finish: the stone is polished in a moving vat with water and gravel, in which it is placed for approximately 1? hours, to obtain a grained appearance on the stone, which will give it a much stronger grip.

Stone dimensions: 200mm x 35mm x 15mm.

The glued laminated wood base is varnished and fitted with four glides for good grip on a work surface. The stone is
can be turned over to use all four sides, or to adapt another stone. The base is grooved, so the stone can be placed on the spot.
