Slipstones & Profiled Sharpening Stones

Slip and profiled sharpening stones are specialised tools designed for honing, refining and de-burring the edges of blades, chisels, woodcarving gouges and various cutting instruments. These sharpening stones come in a compact, slender format, ideal for sharpening small or intricate tools. The "slip" stones are typically thin, allowing access to narrow spaces and hard-to-reach areas, while the "profiled" stones are shaped to suit specific edge profiles or unique blade designs. Their abrasive surfaces enable precise sharpening by removing imperfections and honing the edge to a fine, sharp finish.
