Norton 076607-87938 Garden Tool Sharpening Stone

Product Description

The NORTON 076607-87938 is a sharpening stone designed for maintaining the cutting edges of lawn and garden tools. This hand-held abrasive stone removes nicks, burrs, and dull edges from blades used in everyday groundskeeping and landscaping work. Measuring 9.5 inches long, 1.375 inches wide, and 0.5 inches thick, it provides a full working surface suited to long blade geometries such as those found on hoes, shovels, and pruning tools. Weighing 0.438 pounds, it is light enough for field use without a vise or bench setup. Landscapers, groundskeepers, and property maintenance crews keep this stone on hand for quick edge restoration between equipment service intervals.

This sharpening stone is suited for use on manually operated lawn and garden cutting tools where a sharp edge directly affects cutting efficiency and operator effort. Typical applications include touch-up sharpening of hoe blades, spades, edgers, pruning shears, loppers, and similar implements. The elongated profile allows the user to work along the full length of a blade in a single stroke, making it practical for tools with straight or gently curved edges. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both professional grounds crews and trade professionals maintaining client equipment in the field.

Installation Notes

No power tools or mechanical fasteners are required for use. Before sharpening, secure the tool blade in a vise or lay it flat on a stable surface to prevent movement during strokes. Wear cut-resistant gloves when working near exposed blade edges. Follow the existing bevel angle on the blade and use consistent, even strokes to maintain a uniform edge.
