Description

The Saurat valley in the Ariege Pyrenees is home to France's last remaining whetstone manufacturer. It has also 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, in an open-air cellar, and are then shaped entirely 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.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 some time, 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!

Pierre very efficient! I recommend ... The packaging on the other hand needs to be perfected, the three stones were almost unprotected in the parcel and a chip came off the ideal L stone! FRANCK

Good little stone

My first sharpening stone, for pocket or paring knives. It's really nice to finally have knives that cut. Obviously, that was the purpose of this purchase. However, it's still a fairly coarse stone (relatively low granulometry). The knives will be sharp, but for a mirror-polished edge, you'll need another stone.
