Natural Arkansas Hone, Ultra Fine

This is an excellent polishing stone that will give you a factory sharp edge on any almost any knife that isn't beat up or dented badly. That is if you use the right shaping stones before it correctly. Lansky is the best sharpener company for the money you will ever find.

So if you want to know about the item itself, it gets FIVE STARS. The problem with this listing is this is not actually an "Arkansas" stone as stated. It will still work with the arkansas stone kits because it is the last step polishing stone you would use. I bought it along with the arkansas three stone kit after I had used my friends five standard stone kit and the major banefit to the arkansas stones is they are supposed to last longer. They also take off a little less metal to a comparable grit regular stone and thus can produce a somewhat more even edge, again this particular 1000 grit stone is so good it doesn't effect the finished product when used in conjuction with the arkansas kit like I am doing. So that's why I'm not trying to return this to the seller. However I should tell you that the regular stones will still do wonders for a non abused blade edge and I bought the arkansas kit because I am a bit obsessive about my knives and if I can make a better edge I wil usually try. If you do beat your knife up a bit the regular five stone pro-kit has more corse grind stones that will be much quicker at reshaping your blade and can actually eliminate some small dings and burrs from it completely.

So if you are not experienced at sharpening knives and I mean Really sharp, the standard stones will do you no wrong.

This is a standard stone that can give you a razor edge if used right.
