MORE INFO

Extra-fine waterstone. 20 - 30 % garnets. Height approx. 17 mm.

The stone shoots a little slower than the yellow belgian coticule whetstone polygon, but has a longer service life. The thickness of the hand-sawn stone is approx. 17 mm.

The blue Belgian coticule whestone polygon is a natural stone and is usually composed of 20 to 30% garnets, which are connected by volcanic ash. It is the garnet content that gives the Belgian coticule whetstone polygon its exceptional cutting properties.

The Belgian coticule whetstone polygon is a closed-pored stone, which is why it cannot become clogged. Therefore, only water is used for sharpening, never oil. Oil is only used for porous stones to prevent the deposition of metal particles in the pores.

It is sufficient to moisten the surface of the belgian coticule whetstone polygon - it should not be immersed in water. Grenades are exposed on the surface of the belgian coticule whetstone polygon during sanding and the moisture creates a kind of sanding paste.

When sharpening carving tools with larger belgian coticule whetstone polygons, the stone can become uneven due to frequent use. To restore a flat surface for precise grinding results, you can dress the stone: To do this, place a piece of sandpaper on a flat surface. Add some water and sand the surface of the coticule. Use sandpaper with a grit of around 80 to 100 micrometres. The flat surface of your Belgian coticule whetstone polygon is particularly important if you want to sharpen tools with a straight cutting edge, such as for example, castors, chisels or planer blades.
