## Overview

## Description

Translucent Arkansas (Extra Fine): This is a harder stone than the Soft, Hard or True Hard Arkansas and is used to put a polished, razor sharp edge on knives and tools. Since this is a natural stone, color may vary between translucent white, grey, yellow, pink or brown. Genuine Arkansas stones are 100% quarried in the Ouachita Mountains of central Arkansas. They are highly sought after worldwide for their superior ability to sharpen knives and woodworking tools, as well as to put surgical quality edges on a wide variety of instruments Arkansas stones produce these fine edges s with less wear that man-made stones. Arkansas stones are classified as Novaculite, which is extremely hard and fine grained rock containing almost pure silica. These stones are classified in 4 grades and progress from Soft to Hard to Translucent and finally to Black. Each grade is based on the specify gravity or density of the mineral and not the grit or particle size. The grades with more dense or tightly packed particles will produce a finer or sharper edge. In addition, stone grades are not determined by color, as color alone will not differentiate the hardness of different stone grades. Each grade may contain any of the following colors: black, blue-black, charcoal, grey, white, multi- color, brown, pink or red, or a combination of these colors in a single stone. These stones come in a leather pouch to protect them when not in use. All Arkansas stones work best with light mineral honing oil to suspend the metal particles produced by the sharpening process which prevents clogging of the pores of the stone.

Review: Superb! - This is a great stone for putting the finishing touches on a blade. It is ultra fine, and can bring a blade to razor sharpness. That said, it is only for that. Do not buy this stone for regular everyday sharpening. You need a selection of coarse and fine stones for that. But for that fine sweet edge on a blade that's already sharp but you really need to be as sharp as absolutely possible, this is the guy.
Review: 3 Years in. Still working - This is a decent honing stone. I've used it in combination with a diamond sharpener. This is very fine and gets gummed up with metal material after use. I use my diamond stone to shave it back down to shape and clear the debris. I've used it maybe 30 times for sincere sharpenings (plus hones) in the 3 years I've had it. It's still holding up pretty well. It's got a few hairline cracks on one side, but I think it will last me another 3 years. In my opinion it's a pretty cheap item and I've used it hard and it's performed it's duties. It's basically $3 per year of abuse and doing its job like it should.
