The taper profile allows the stone to work into confined geometries such as serrations, gouges, and narrow grooves that flat stones cannot reach. At 0.3125 inches (5\/16 inches) thick and a lightweight 0.05 pounds, this stone is compact enough for a field service bag or toolbox. The fine grit grade produces a polished, refined edge suitable for finishing work after coarser stock removal has been completed. Tradespeople, technicians, and maintenance professionals reach for this stone when a utility knife, scoring blade, or specialty tool needs a clean, controlled edge rather than a full regrind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis taper sharpening stone suits a broad range of maintenance and service applications where fine edge restoration is required on-site or in the shop. It is appropriate for use on hand tools, pocket knives, chisels, and similar implements encountered in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trades. The taper geometry is particularly useful for sharpening awls, compass points, and narrow-blade tools that require working a stone along a tapered surface rather than a flat face. It is sold individually, making it a straightforward single-unit replacement or addition to an existing sharpening kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFine grade grit for edge finishing and polishing after initial sharpening passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTaper stone profile accesses narrow grooves, serrations, and confined edge geometries\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact size and low weight (0.05 pounds) suit field carry and toolbox storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-inch thickness provides a manageable cross-section for controlled hand pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpecification FF414 identifies the stone for procurement and replacement reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose fine-grade taper sharpening stone suitable for maintaining edges on a wide variety of hand tools and blades used in trade and maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo power source or mechanical installation is required for this sharpening stone. Apply light honing oil or water to the stone surface before use to float away swarf and extend stone life, following the stone manufacturer's guidance on preferred lubricant type. Maintain consistent angle and moderate hand pressure during honing strokes to avoid uneven wear on the taper profile. Store the stone in a protected location to prevent chipping or contamination from shop debris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e: FF414\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 61463686850\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543539417394,"sku":"61463686850","price":55.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/695fbcb1f90178988adadac2cc88eef9.jpg?v=1785920113","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norton-61463686850-taper-sharpening-stone-fine-5-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
