This Rock Star stone has a ceramic surface containing a large quantity of white alumina, giving it high abrasion power. What's more, this material wears slowly, so you benefit from its long-lasting effectiveness.

The stone has a 4000 grit, a fine grain that is perfect for bringing a polished finish to the edge of your blades. Thanks to the excellent abrasiveness of white alumina, you can achieve high-end results in no time. This fine grain gives your blades a razor-sharp edge. The work is uniform and precise, which suits all users.

Before using the stone, it is essential to immerse it in water for a few minutes. Allow about ten minutes for this step.

Once sharpening is complete, it is important to allow the stone to dry completely before storing it. Keep it away from sources of heat and let it air-dry. Excessive exposure to heat may cause the stone to crack if it dries too quickly.
