FÄLLKNIVEN DC521

Combination stone from diamond and ceramics comprised of fine diamond (25 micron) and ceramic stone, made from synthetic sapphire. The advantage of these materials is that it, in time, they won't lose their flat surface. In addition, with these hard materials you can even sharpen knives made from extremely hard powder types of steel. The stone does not any water or oil during use. You only occasionally need to clean it with warm water and liquid soap. The stone might feel a little rough at first, but will become smoother during use.

DC521 is a bench stone of a less common category, since it offers two different kinds of stones. The yellow part is a fast and aggressive diamond stone, while the dark is a slow, very fine ceramic stone. Both surfaces are precision flat, which is a prerequisite for perfect sharpening results. The diamond stone works fast and should be used if the edge is very thick. The sharpness obtained is usually enough for everyday tasks. The ceramic whetstone works much more slowly and gives a smoother, razor-sharp edge when necessary. For tools and chef knives, this bench stone is among the best we can offer. It comes in a nice gift box, and sharpening advises are added.
