buy Here is a real piece of bling for someone who needs to sharpen knives of all types! Birthday? New home? Congratulations! Each of the meticulously crafted hard wood boxes (2 1/2" wide x 5 1/2" long with a 4" long stone) contains a genuine hard Arkansas sharpening stone, the finest natural honing stone on the planet. the largest and most homogenous deposits of this stone, known to geologists as "novaculite" are found in the Ouachita Mountains of central Arkansas. Containing micro-crystalline quartz, novaculite has been coveted for centuries owing to the ultra-fine abrasive properties that make it excellent for sharpening knives and tools. Generally described as 1100 - 1200 grit, it renders such a razor sharp edge that surgeons used it to hone their scalpels before the advent of disposable blades. Each wood holding box is precision made from 10 individual pieces of wood, with tiny but sturdy mortise and tenon joints holding it all together. Use the stone with a few drops of light honing oil for excellent results. Contact me first to discuss the hardwood combinations you want (listed under materials) and learn what combination I have. Thanks. PS Better yet please arrange to visit my studio and store in person. Come on over and select your own.
