Oyo Axe Sharpener Whetstone - Fine/Coarse

This Oyo whetstone is a must - have for anyone needing to keep their cutting tools in top shape. It features both fine - grained and coarse - grained surfaces, specifically crafted for sharpening axes and scythe blades. But it's not just limited to these; it's also great for knives and other tools that require a sharp edge. To achieve a super sharp and smooth cutting surface, start by using the coarse - grained side to quickly remove dullness, then finish with the fine - grained side for a polished edge. Measuring 26 cm in length and weighing only 167 gr, it's easy to handle. With its fine/coarse grit design, it offers a versatile sharpening solution.

Using this whetstone is a breeze. First, if your axe, scythe, or knife is really dull, start with the coarse - grained side. Just hold the tool at a consistent angle and move it back and forth across the stone. Keep doing this until you start to see a good edge forming. Then, switch to the fine - grained side. This will give your tool that extra smoothness and sharpness. When using it, make sure to keep the stone wet. You can use water or a special sharpening oil. As for maintenance, after each use, rinse the stone under water to get rid of any metal filings. Let it dry completely before storing it. Also, keep it in a dry place to prevent any damage. And always be careful when handling sharp tools to avoid any injuries.
