Bond: combined (hybrid) bonds to ensure the best performance.
Grain sizes: 1/0- 63/50 - resin bond BP50  for polishing
Grain sizes 80/63 - 160/125 - wear resistant metal-resin bond BP08 for grinding
Grain sizes 200/160 - 500/400 - metal-resin bond BP05 for roughing

Grain size: Please select from the list, or read Technical information.  

Diamond concentration: 100%
Do not waste your money on cheaper stones with lower/unknown concentration.

Flat solid block on aluminum blank, abrasive grains are distributed evenly across the stone.

Preparation of sharpening stones
Unlike other sharpening stones, most of these combined bond stones do not need preparation, except stones with grits finer 1 microns (<Grit 15000). Ultrafine grains (1/0, 0.5/0) form agglomerates in a bond, so you may need to dress them with abrasive powders/pastes, or they will be self-polished after sharpening of 30-50 knives. 

Selection of SiC powders for  dressing  of sharpening stones

Use and cleaning of  sharpening stones
Use any comfortable oil (baby, olive..) to prevent glazing. If glazed - clean with alcohol and toothbrush.

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 dimensions selection window (click also any grain size to select it). I sell it if you buy a stone.
