Belgian Yellow Coticule 6×2″, Select Grade
Sharpen dull blades with the Select Grade Belgian Yellow Coticule 6 x 2″.
FEATURES
- Can be used wet or dry or wet with a slurry
- 8000 grit (without a slurry), 6000 grit (with slurry)
- Slurry sold separatelyÂ
- Non-porous stone that does not need pre-soakingÂ
- Splash water prior to use
- Easy to use and suitable for wet-shavers
- The difference between the standard and select grade coticules lies only in their appearance. Both stone grades have identical sharpening qualities.Â
TO USEÂ
- Very hard stone (harder that most artificial wet stones) but will still need lapping before first usage and from time to time.
- 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).
- Tip: the long edges of the stone should be rounded slightly with a lapping stone or sandpaper. This way the risk of denting the blade in a normal honing motion across the stone is greatly reduced.Â
MATERIALS
- Natural sharpening stone
- Note: These are natural stones and each stone is one-of-a-kind. Consequently the photo is for illustration purposes ONLY, and might not accurately represent the Belgian Yellow Coticule stone you will actually receive.
