Description

In the Saurat valley , at the foot of the Ariege Pyrenees, lies France's last remaining whetstone manufacturer. In fact, Ella has been awarded the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (Living Heritage Company) label!

These stones are extracted from the mountain over a period of 2 to 3 months every year, and are then entirely crafted by hand.

They are first cut to the desired 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 therefore been 100% handcrafted from A to Z, and will offer you ideal use and gentle, precise sharpening of your knives. It also ensures long-lasting sharpness. What's more, the finesse and abrasiveness of this stone, as well as its size, make it the perfect stone for sharpening your Laguioles.

To use it, 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.

So don't hesitate to discover all KnifeLeader's natural stones, and sharpen your knives to perfection!

Very practical
language rating 8
Be careful, the stone is really small. Works well, though. The grain is neither too fine nor too coarse. Gives you a good edge quickly. Very useful for gardening, when it stops cutting, 2 minutes of sharpening and you're back in business. I manage to get an edge fine enough to shave my hair.
