Norton Ascent Ceramic Stone - Fine

Norton Ceramic Stones Fine Grit

Norton Pike Ascent Ceramic Stones are the latest development from a company with a long history of making quality sharpening stones. The quality and convenience of these extremely hard, fine grit, extremely flat stones will make sharpeners of tools and knives alike excited as well.

Extremely Hard

Ascent Stones are made of exceptionally pure ceramic material and are truly hard. Ceramic this hard will cut any steel, even the very hard, tough alloys found in the best knives and tools. Ceramic stones wear exceptionally well for a long life even with heavy use.

Fine Grit

The Fine grade of the Ascent Ceramic Stones is for finishing and polishing. The resulting finish is finer than that achieved from a Hard Arkansas and comparable to the Norton 4000 grit Water Stone. These are great for transitioning from a coarser shaping stone to a final polishing stone.

Extremely Flat

Norton Ascent Ceramic Stones are reliably flat. They are machined to a flat, smooth surface when they are made, and the same hard wearing characteristics that give them a long life also ensures that they will remain flat. These stones will not dish or cup with use.

Ready When You Need Them

Norton Ascent Stones are very convenient:

• No Flattening Required - Norton Ascent Stones start flat and remain flat. Checking a stone for flatness before every use is not needed.
• Used Dry - Norton Ascent Ceramic Stones do not require any oil or water when sharpening. No preparation or cleanup is required.

Great for Tools or Knives!

Norton Ascent Ceramic stones will appeal to tool sharpeners who will appreciate the permanent flatness of the stones. Put a final polish on chisels and blade blade backs, or hone wide bevels without worrying about any dish or cup in the stone.

Knife sharpeners will value the Norton Ascent Ceramic's flatness as well of course, but also their ability to handle super hard alloys. Hone exotic steel knives to razor sharpness quickly and efficiently.
