TO USE

- To lap: Use a lapping stone (i.e DMT-8C 325 coarse diamond sharpening stone or Norton Lapping Stone) or with sandpaper on a very flat surface (i.e. glass).Â
- Tip: the long edges of the stone should be rounded slightly with a lapping stone or sandpaper to reduce the risk of denting the bladeÂ
