Norton 61463685470 Sharpening Stone Coarse Rectangle

Product Description

The NORTON 61463685470 is a coarse-grade rectangular sharpening stone used to restore and sharpen cutting edges on hand tools, blades, and shop equipment. At 0.25 inches thick, this stone is a compact, single-sided abrasive suitable for benchtop or field use. The coarse grit designation makes it best suited for initial edge setting, removing nicks, or reprofiling a dull or damaged bevel before finishing with a finer stone. Tradespeople who regularly work with chisels, plane irons, knives, scrapers, or utility blades will find this a practical addition to a tool maintenance kit. It weighs approximately 0.1 pounds, making it easy to carry in a tool bag or pouch.

This sharpening stone is used across a wide range of trades and job-site settings. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, carpenters, and general contractors use coarse sharpening stones to maintain the cutting edges of hand tools between formal sharpenings. The rectangular shape provides a flat, consistent sharpening surface and allows the user to work the full length of most blades. It is equally suited to shop use on a fixed work surface or to portable use in the field where a powered grinder is not available.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this product. Secure the stone on a stable, non-slip surface before use to prevent movement during sharpening. Always maintain consistent angle control when working a blade across the stone to achieve an even edge. Keep fingers clear of the sharpening path and use a honing oil or water as a lubricant if appropriate for the blade material being worked.
