Product detailed description
The Shapton GlassStone range of grinding stones uses a revolutionary design that combines a glass backing with the abrasive material to ensure long-lasting usability. This design allows users to enjoy grinding with maximum efficiency and precision while finding the ideal finish for any type of blade.
The wide range of stones includes a variety of coarseness and fineness, giving users a wide range of choices to suit their specific needs. Due to the unique design of these stones, their wear is much slower than conventional water stones.
One of the key advantages is that the grinding wheel does not need to be soaked in water before use, saving time and making it quicker and more convenient to use. Simply spray the stone with water and you can start grinding immediately.
An important factor for the user is the possibility to use the grinder until the end of its service life. The glass backing effectively protects the grinding material and prevents its destruction, even if only a few millimetres of grinding material remain on the stone. This ensures maximum resource utilisation and reduces the cost of regular grindstone replacement.
