More info
The Arkansas stone is the most used sharpening stone in the cutlery world! Originally, it was used by the Amerindians (indigenous people), and today, it continues to be largely used by due to its impressive effectiveness.
It is extracted from the geological formations of novaculite (microcrystalline quartz), which is a material that can be found only in the USA. This material ensures increased strength and robustness.
Furthermore, the material of this stone attains a score of 6.5 on the Mohs scale( this is an instrument that measures the hardness of minerals ranging from a scale of 1 to 10). This is a good reason why novaculite comes from the Latin term “razor.”
As such, this GATCO natural stone enables you to sharpen your knives and also removes defects as well as micro-wastes which have accumulated as a result of continuous usage. It is a very useful accessory for both professional and home cooks.
Additionally, the leather pouch enables you to easily carry this stone wherever you wish! This means that no matter where you are, you’ll be always ready to sharpen your knives.
