NATURAL STONES for sharpening"2 Medaglie" Quartz is the abrasive material most frequently occurring in nature. However only few natural stones have the correct relation between quartz and carbonates (bonding agents); a perfect equilibrium that makes the natural stones "2 Medaglie" exceptional for sharpening.
The natural characteristics of the stones are still emphasised by the use with water, which, reacting with the lime, removes it slightly, leaving the abrasive quartz granulates permanently exposed. All this allows a quick and perfect cleaning of the stone, whereby the abrasive characteristics are permanently maintained.
Quality of the natural stone "2 Medaglie":
High quartz content with homogeneous distribution of the sharp-edged quartz grains of only few tenths of a Micron, giving a high friction ability also after long use. This characteristics allow easy, clean and durable performances.
Application: with water.
Cleaning: leave stone to soak in water and vinegar for 12 hours.

OILSTONE
ORIGINAL ARKANSAS HARDThe natural"Arkansas"Arkansas stone has been used since antiquity for its very fine granulometry and its homogeneous distribution of the silicon particles. These characteristics guarantee an exact cross section without burr on any type of blades, where perfect sharpening is desired.
Application: with pure low thickness oil, especially for natural stones.
Cleaning: rub stone with sandpaper and water.

OILSTONE
ORIGINAL ARKANSAS SOFTIt possesses similar characteristics as the "Arkansas hard", but with larger silicon particles, which are a few tenths of a Micron bigger. Being a softer stone it can be applied to a wide range of applications.
Its main characteristics are: fast removal of metal, high friction ability, which permits a fast sharpening of blades and cut-off tools.
Application: with pure low thickness oil, especially for natural stones. It can also be used dry for short utilization.
Cleaning: rub stone with sandpaper and water.

NATURAL STONE"Vera Candia"The origin of the name "Candia" comes from the island of Candia (today's Crete). This stone has been in use already by the natives of Greece, being particularly suitable for sharpening blades and cut-off tools. Thanks to the finest granulation of its quartz particles, the stone is particularly indicated for sharpening bistoury and razor-blades and all kind of blades, where a professional finishing is desire.
Application: with pure low thickness oil, for natural stones.
Cleaning: rub stone with sandpaper and water.
