Product description
We’re happy to present something everyone has been waiting for – a combination diamond/ceramic whetstone that will handle all your sharpening needs. The newly-developed DC3 and DC4 whetstones consist of a fine diamond stone (25 micron) and a very special ceramic stone, made of synthetic sapphires. The advantage of these materials, although they get worn, will still keep their flat shape this is important when you sharpen your knife. And, since these materials are the hardest we know of, they will sharpen any steel, even these extremely hard powder steels. You don’t need any lubrication for these stone but now and then you should consider cleaning them with warm water and liquid soap. The stones might feel coarse from the start but will become smoother/better after some use. A leather pouch is included.
Dimensions: 7 x 32 x 100 mm
Weight: 65 g
How to use your DC whetstone
If your knife is dull, we advise you to start with the diamond stone. After restoring the edge to original shape, de-burr the edge lightly with the ceramic stone in order to get a razor-sharp edge. Use no oil or water. Start by laying the blade flat on the stone, raise the blade spine approx. the thickness of the blade, and start moving the knife in circular motions.

Gets the job done

— Show originalA compact stone that you can take with you on trips and do maintenance on cutting tools. At home, then bigger stones for more precise work. Maybe a little rough at first. The leather shell serves as an emergency spare strap. A little digging reveals that the diamond side is K800 and the ceramic side is K14000. At first it feels a little small, but with a little getting used to it, it works really well.| Overall rating |
— Show originalIn knife sharpening, even a complete beginner got a good blade.
The small size is both a plus and a minus:
+Light to carry with you, so you can take care of the equipment even on the ground.
-The stone is so light that you have to hold it in place with one hand, which means you have to sharpen "one-handed". This, at least for me as a beginner, is quite challenging. You will surely learn that with practice.| Overall rating |
— Show originalThe fish fillet was easily sharpened with this, but the stone is quite small for the hand, you have to be careful not to hit yourself with the knife| Overall rating |
— Show original7.5 / 10 But it could have been a handle or a little longer.| Overall rating |
— Show originalQuality product. Good functionality. It is very easy to sharpen even the toughest blade. — Show originalSmooth whetstone with two different surfaces. — Show originalThere, the anonymous person said that the roughness of the stone would be "the diamond side is K800 and the ceramic side is K14000". However, on Fjällkniven's website it says that the grain size would be 25um for diamond and 5um for ceramic, which would mean about J500 and J2500 on the Japanese JIS scale.Brand
