HFS Coarse Flattening Stone for Whetstones Restore an Even Sharpening Surface Repeated sharpening can wear the center of a whetstone faster than its edges. This coarse-grit flattening stone helps remove high spots and level worn or uneven whetstone surfaces for more consistent sharpening. Debris-Clearing Grooves Surface grooves provide channels for water, stone particles and slurry to move away during wet flattening. This helps reduce debris buildup between the stones and maintain effective abrasive contact. Use the grooved face against the whetstone, apply even pressure and rinse away debris as you work. Follow your whetstone manufacturer's soaking instructions. Coarse Edge Reshaping The coarse abrasive surface can also assist with reshaping damaged or chipped knife edges before finer sharpening. Use controlled strokes and follow the appropriate sharpening procedure for your blade.
