Sharpening stone 500 SHAPTON GLASS, Dellinger

Product detailed description

A knife that feels more like a blunt argument than a kitchen tool when slicing an onion deserves a proper change of approach. SHAPTON GLASS #500 gives sharpening the atmosphere of an honest workshop, where there is no room for excuses or cosmetics, only the return of the blade to a working life it won't have to be ashamed of.

Main advantages:

• The Japanese sharpening stone SHAPTON GLASS #500 is designed for coarser sharpening, restoring a blunt edge, and faster adjustments of its geometry.
• JIS #500 grit with an abrasive particle size of 29.4 microns offers significant material removal for efficient work with the blade.
• The stone is useful when regular fine touch-ups are not enough and the knife needs a more thorough return to proper cutting performance.
• Strong sharpening performance helps to quickly prepare the edge for the next stage, where you can continue with finer grits.
• SHAPTON GLASS #500 can also handle very hard steels, making it a great addition to the equipment of quality kitchen knife owners.
• The very fast sharpening and polishing effect shortens the work on the edge and allows you to achieve the desired result without unnecessary delay.
• The ceramic sharpening layer is laminated onto a tempered glass backing, which helps maintain an exceptionally flat working surface.
• The glass backing gives the stone stability during sharpening and at the same time prevents unwanted bending while working with the blade.
• Extremely low wear contributes to a long lifespan and helps the stone maintain the flatness essential for precise sharpening.
• No long soaking is required before use – simply wet the working surface with water and you can start practically immediately.
• Dimensions of 210 x 70 x 10 mm provide a comfortable working surface for common kitchen knives and wider blades.
• The sharpening layer itself has a thickness of 5 mm and the solid glass base provides it with the necessary support during sharpening.
• A very flat working surface is particularly advantageous when sharpening wide blades, such as Japanese knives of the Nakiri type.
• In addition to kitchen knives, the stone can also be used for tools for working with wood or gardening equipment.
• SHAPTON GLASS #500 is a practical choice for situations where you need to truly restore the edge and prepare it for subsequent finer sharpening.
