Value Collection 399-6790 Sharpening Stone 1 Inch Thick

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 399-6790 is a rectangular sharpening stone used to hone and dress the cutting edges of hand tools, blades, and shop equipment. At 1 inch thick, this gray stone provides a stable, full-contact surface for consistent edge work across a range of blade geometries. Machinists, millwrights, plumbers, and general tradespeople reach for bench stones like this one to maintain chisels, plane irons, knives, and other cutting tools between sharpenings. The rectangular profile makes it straightforward to register the blade at a controlled angle and work the edge with repeatable strokes.

This sharpening stone is suited for bench use in trade shops, maintenance facilities, and service vehicles where sharp hand tools are a routine requirement. It fits naturally into a toolbox or workbench drawer and supports general-purpose honing tasks. Whether used dry or with a honing fluid, the rectangular form works well for flat-ground and hollow-ground edges. No specialized mounting hardware is required for handheld use, though a stone holder or non-slip mat is recommended for stationary bench work.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose bench sharpening stone suitable for honing and dressing flat-ground and hollow-ground cutting tool edges across trade and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for handheld use. For stationary bench honing, place the stone on a non-slip surface or secure it in a stone holder to prevent movement during sharpening strokes. If using a honing fluid or oil, apply sparingly to the stone surface before use to float swarf and extend stone life. Clean the stone surface after use to prevent buildup that can glaze the honing face over time.
