Stress-free Belgian Yellow Coticule 6x1.5", Select Grade - Almost Gone [f2YjZDRk]

Perfect the edge of your straight razor with the Belgian Yellow Coticule 6 x 1.5", Select Grade. 

FEATURES

• 8000 grit (without a slurry), 6000 grit (with slurry)
• Use wet or dry or wet with a slurry 
• Slurry stone sold separately 
• Can be used for fine edges on straight razors
• Non-porous stone and does not need pre-soaking
• Splash water on stone before use
• Easy to use and suitable for beginners 
• The difference between the standard and select grade coticules lies only in their appearance. Both stone grades have identical sharpening qualities.

TO USE

• Very hard stone (harder that most artificial wet stones) that requires lapping before first usage and from time to time.
• To lap: Use a lapping stone (i.e DMT-8C 325 coarse diamond sharpening stone or Norton Lapping Stone) or with sandpaper on a very flat surface (i.e. glass).
• Tip: the long edges of the stone should be rounded slightly with a lapping stone or sandpaper. This way the risk of denting the blade in a normal honing motion across the stone is greatly reduced.
  

MATERIALS
