In the Saurat valley , at the foot of the Ariege Pyrenees, you'll find France's last remaining whetstone manufacturer. Ella has been awarded the "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" (Living Heritage Company) label.
These stones are extracted from the mountains over a period of 2 to 3 months a year, and are then entirely crafted by hand.
They are first cut to the right size, then washed several times under a powerful jet of water to remove as much stone residue as possible.
They are then placed for 1 hour in a tool called the "berçeuse", which performs a continuous left-to-right movement thanks to an electric mechanism. The cradle will also be filled with pebbles, sand and water, which will have an abrasive action on the stones, giving them an optimal grit.
This stone has been manufactured by craftsmen from A to Z, and will offer you ideal quality of use, and gentle, precise sharpening of your knives. It also ensures long-lasting sharpness. You can also use it to sharpen your scissors, or your small garden tools! What'smore, its oval cross-section makes it easy to grip, andto use, you'll need to wet it to obtain a finer sharpness and avoid clogging.
It requires no special maintenance. If necessary, after a certain period of use, you can clean the stone with a washing-up liquid, brushing it under hot water.
All in all, this French-made stone is an indispensable tool for all your sharpening needs!
So don't hesitate to check out all KnifeLeader's natural stones, and sharpen your knives to perfection!
