Norton 61463685460 Fine Grade Rectangle Sharpening Stone

Product Description

The NORTON 61463685460 is a fine grade rectangular sharpening stone designed to hone and refine cutting edges on hand tools, blades, and knives. At 0.25 inches thick, this compact stone delivers controlled abrasion for finishing and polishing edges that have already been ground to shape. Fine grade stones are typically the last step in a sharpening sequence, removing minimal material while producing a clean, sharp edge. Tradespeople, machinists, and maintenance technicians reach for fine grade stones when edge quality and finish matter more than rapid stock removal.

This sharpening stone suits general-purpose edge maintenance in shop, field, and jobsite environments. Its rectangular form factor makes it easy to work flat surfaces, curved edges, and tool bevels by hand or with a fixed honing guide. Typical applications include sharpening chisels, plane irons, pocket knives, utility blades, and similar cutting tools used in carpentry, plumbing trades, HVAC service, and general maintenance work.

Key Features

• Fine grade abrasive for finishing and polishing cutting edges
• Rectangular stone shape for versatile hand honing across flat and beveled surfaces
• 0.25 inch thickness for compact storage and easy handling
• Lightweight at 0.5 pounds for portability in a tool bag or service kit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose fine grade sharpening stone suitable for honing most common hand tool and knife edges found in trade and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Sharpening stones require no installation but should be used with a honing oil or water lubricant appropriate to the stone type to float swarf and prevent glazing. Secure the workpiece or use a honing guide to maintain a consistent bevel angle during sharpening. Clean the stone surface after each use to remove metal particles and preserve cutting performance.
