Review: Excellent, but details matter - My water stones include 250, 400, 600, 1000, 1000, 1000, and 6000. They were quite dished from much use. For the first flattening effort this Norton flattening stone got quite a workout. The Norton flattening stone was quite flat when received. I checked with straight edge, both the top and bottom--very flat. After working all 8 water stones I used the straight edge to check water stones for flatness. Huge improvement but not literally flat. Checked the flattening stone. Well now the flattening stone was dished just a little. So I flipped the stone over and used the very flat bottom for just a few more strokes. That finished all 8 stones nicely. To restore the flatness of the Norton stone I used a strip of 80 grit abrasive paper on top of a piece of granite counter. {I DID NOT do this on my kitchen granite counter. It was a scrap piece of granite from a countertop installer.) Just a few passes were enough. This Norton stone is aggressive. Its job is to eat away the high spots of water stones. Pay attention to the surface of the water stone. STOP when it is flat, or you'll grind away the expensive water stone. Check water stones for flatness using a good straight edge. Often that will be a tool like a tri-square. But ONLY use the straight edge. It does not matter if the working surface is square to the edges, only that the surface is FLAT. One smooth plane like a geometry class. The flat working surface of my stones was square to the edges when purchased but after a bit of use it was easy to see that the top and bottom were not parallel -- but those surfaces were each FLAT. Woodworkers can build up a very expensive set of edge tools like chisels and planes. The stones for keeping them sharp cost real money, too. Making and maintaining proper edges becomes hopeless when the stones are no longer truly flat. This flattening stone makes a real difference at a very reasonable price. A diamond plate would be nice but this flattening stone is just 10% to 20% the cost of a diamond plate. ## Features - Care and maintain your tool and knife sharpener waterstone with this essential Norton Abrasives flattening stone - This flattening stone is thoughtfully designed with diagonal grooves that provide channels for material to be removed from a whetstone during the flattening process - Stone is superbly flat and made from a very firm, coarse grit silicon carbide that promotes fast results on wet stones during the flattening process.
