The Pyrenees oval-shaped whetstone for knives is very practical, as it allows complete sharpening of all your knives.

It’s made from Pyrenean schist from Ariège, in the Saurat valley, where the last natural whetstone factory is located. This water stone, with its grained appearance, gives your blade a new edge.

A genuine knife sharpening stone, it can be used dry, but we recommend that you use it with water, in which 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°.

Grainy finish: this involves polishing in a moving vat with water and gravel, in which the stones are placed for around 1h30, to obtain a grainy appearance on the stone, which will give a much stronger grip.

Stone dimensions: 230mm x 30mm.
