Boride CS-HD Sharpening Stone Silicon carbide sharpening stone for hard stainless and carbon steels from 47 to 63 HRC. Abrasive Silicon carbide CS-HD stones are made from silicon carbide and are intended for sharpening knives made from hard steels. It is not recommended to use excessive force or pressure during sharpening or finishing. Steel range For hard steels The series is designed for solid stainless and carbon steels with hardness from 47 to 63 HRC. Using this series on soft steels may increase stone wear and cause faster loading of the abrasive surface. Use Dry or with water The stones can be used dry or with ordinary water. A little soap can also be added during sharpening. Care Simple cleaning and maintenance The stone does not require special care. It can be cleaned under running water with a stiff soapy brush, such as a toothbrush. Flattening can be performed on silicon carbide after surface wear develops. Production notes Minor visual marks may be present Boride stones may have minor production marks, including saw traces on the working surface and small chips at corners or edges no larger than 1 mm.
