Norton 61463624335 Sharpening Stone 220 1000 Grit 1 Inch

Product Description

The NORTON 61463624335 is a dual-grit rectangular sharpening stone designed for precision edge work on blades, chisels, gouges, and other cutting tools. One face carries a 220-grit surface rated Very Fine, and the opposite face carries a 1000-grit surface rated Ultra Fine, allowing the user to progress from initial edge setting to a polished, razor-sharp finish on a single stone. At 1 inch thick, the stone provides substantial mass for stable honing on a bench or in a vise. Weighing 1.7 pounds, it stays planted during use without additional clamping in most applications. This stone suits professional tradespeople, machinists, woodworkers, and tool-and-die technicians who require consistent, repeatable edge geometry.

This sharpening stone is suited for bench use in shop environments where two-stage sharpening is performed in a single setup. The rectangular form fits standard stone holders and bench fixtures. It is appropriate for maintenance sharpening of hand tools, including plane irons, chisels, knives, and similar blades. The dual-grit format reduces the need to switch between separate stones during a sharpening session, making it practical for field service kits and fixed shop stations alike.

Key Features

• Dual-grit design: 220 Very Fine on one face, 1000 Ultra Fine on the reverse

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose bench sharpening stone compatible with standard rectangular stone holders and honing fixtures used for hand tools, cutting tools, and blades requiring a two-stage Very Fine to Ultra Fine sharpening progression.

Installation Notes

Place the stone in a secure bench holder or clamp it in a vise before use to prevent movement during honing strokes. Apply the appropriate honing fluid, oil, or water as specified for the stone type to float swarf and prevent glazing of the abrasive surface. Ensure cutting tools are free of power sources or stored safely before sharpening begins. Work at a consistent bevel angle throughout the stroke to maintain edge geometry.
