Shapton Glass Stone 120 Grit Sharpening Stone

34 items left

Shapton Glass Stone, 120 Grit, #50201. 

210mm x 70mm, 5mm thick (total thickness is 10mm: 5mm of abrasive bonded to 5mm glass plate). 

Shapton GlassStones are very fast cutting and long-lasting. The ceramic abrasive is permanently bonded to a glass plate so the whole unit is very flat and very strong. The abrasive is extremely consistent and dense so you have a great feel and can produce very precise and clean edges, plus these have the convenience of splash-and-go sharpening (do not soak these stones).

The Shapton stone holder (sold separately) is designed to fit these stones perfectly and is quite heavy and tall, providing a great workstation. The more affordable Naniwa universal/adjustable stone holder also works fine for these stones.

Made in Japan.

Eats steel

I use the low grit Shapton Glass 120, 220, 320, 500) for thinning and edge repair. I've used a lot of stones, these eat metal and that's what I need for these tasks.

Shapton Glass 120

Price, packaging and shipping were all first class. Excellent, dependable service from PF and I would highly recommend to anyone.

Stone cuts very fast and remains quite flat compared to other low grit waterstones, which surprised me a bit. I'm actually using it to flatten chisel backs and it excels. I regularly lap the stone with Atoma 140 and this seems to work fine. Very pleased with my purchase.
