Sharpening stones, also known as whetstones, are abrasive surfaces utilized to refine cutting edges on steel tools like chisels, knives, scissors, hand scrapers, and plane blades. The process of sharpening reshapes the edge by removing metal and adjusting its angle, while honing fine-tunes the surface. Stones can be flat or shaped according to the complexity of the edge.

When using a sharpening stone, the choice of lubricant determines whether it's a waterstone or oilstone; Norton's oilstone oil is the preferred lubricant. It prevents metal from bonding with the abrasive surface by eliminating displaced debris. Norton Abrasives, a trusted name since 1885, is a part of Saint-Gobain and adheres to ISO 9000 and 14001 standards for quality and environmental management.

To enhance your sharpening experience, opt for Norton Sharpening Stone Oil, suitable for all metals. Made from a natural, highly refined light mineral oil, it's safe for culinary tools due to its pharmacopoeia-grade status. Mineral oil lubrication is essential for Norton oilstones, facilitating a clean sharpening process by preventing clogging with metal and abrasive dust.
