Description of products in this set.
CBN (cubic boron nitride, borazon) stones are well known for high hardness and resistance to high temperatures and various chemical components of alloys and steels.
Comparing CBN and diamond grains, we must admit, that CBN works softer and more productively, while at the same time it does not cause yellowing scratches on the cutting edge. This is due to the fact that CBN has a crystal structure in the shape of an eyepiece - the number of cutting edges is greater with less sharp corners - resulting in softness during processing and high productivity. Diamond has a crystal structure in the form of a tetrahedron, with fewer cutting edges and sharper corners of the crystal, which leads to more "aggressive" work of the diamond
The following grains are available(please contact us to change set content): 0.5/0; 1/0; 2/1; 3/2; 5/3; 7/5; 10/7; 14/10; 20/14; 28/20; 40/28; 50/40; 63/50; 80/63; 100/80; 125/100; 160/125; 200/160; 250/200; 315/250.
Quality Italian leather on aluminum blank, used for applying polishing paste and further sharpening the cutting edge of the knife. It can also be used without paste.
Glossy leather - for fine grits.

Recommendations on selection of sharpening stones
How to maintain sharpening stones
Preparation of sharpening stones
Stones with grits finer 3 microns either require preparation (dressing), or they will be self-polished after sharpening of 30-50 knives. Then they will be of gold color and work well.
This is common issue for all manufacturers: abrasive grains are covered with bond, so you need to "release" them.
"Stone preparation" is not available because of war.

Use and cleaning of CBN sharpening stones
Use any comfortable oil (baby, olive..) to prevent glazing. If glazed - clean with alcohol and toothbrush.
Maintenance (in 1-2 year), flattening/revitalization:
- resin bond stones - with silicon (silica) carbide powders on glass plate,
- metal bond stones - with FeCl.
There are other methods (with SiC powders..), but method with FeCl, on glass plate is the cheapest and simplest.
You may buy 100 gr. of FeCl in grain selection window. I sell it if you buy a stone.
