Norton 61463687565 Sharpening Stone Extra Fine Rectangle

Product Description

The NORTON 61463687565 is a rectangular sharpening stone in an extra fine grade, designed for precision edge work on cutting tools, blades, and similar implements. At 0.375 inches thick, the stone offers a stable honing surface suited to both bench use and handheld technique. Extra fine grit removes minimal material while refining an already-shaped edge, making this stone appropriate for final finishing and polishing passes rather than heavy stock removal. Licensed tradespeople, machinists, and skilled trades workers reaching a finishing stage in tool maintenance rely on stones of this grade and format.

This sharpening stone is suited for maintenance of hand tools, knives, chisels, plane irons, and similar cutting edges in shop, field, and service environments. Its rectangular profile is the standard format for bench stone applications, sitting flat against a work surface or guide fixture. Extra fine grade stones are commonly the last abrasive step in a multi-stage sharpening sequence, used after coarser stones have established the bevel geometry.

Key Features

• Extra fine grade abrasive for finishing and edge-polishing passes
• Rectangular stone shape compatible with standard bench stone holders and guides
• 0.375 inches thick for consistent surface contact during honing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental bench stone for use with standard rectangular stone holders and honing guide systems compatible with extra fine grade abrasive stones.

Installation Notes

No power tools or mechanical installation is required for bench stone use. Secure the stone in a non-slip holder or clamp it to a stable work surface before use to prevent shifting during honing strokes. Follow the tool or blade manufacturer's recommended honing angle and apply appropriate honing oil or water as indicated by the stone type before use. Keep fingers clear of the edge being worked at all times.
