Sharpening Stone MODECO MN-68-230 oval 250 mm

MODECO MN-68-230 oval 250 mm is an oval sharpening stone designed to restore and maintain cutting edges on knives, chisels and a range of hand tools. With a 250 mm abrasive surface, the stone provides a stable platform for controlled sharpening and honing, enabling users to remove burrs and refine bevels. Built for both workshop and home use, the stone's oval shape helps maintain consistent contact with curved and straight blades.

Advantages

The MODECO oval sharpening stone offers a uniform abrasive surface that supports even metal removal and predictable sharpening results. Its elongated 250 mm length provides room for full-length strokes while the oval profile improves handling when working on rounded or tapered edges. The stone is suitable for repeated use and can be incorporated into routine tool maintenance workflows to prolong the service life and cutting performance of blades.

How to use

Secure the stone on a stable surface or use a non-slip base before starting. If required, soak or wet the stone according to the manufacturer's guidance for the specific abrasive type, then place the blade at the appropriate bevel angle and draw it across the stone in controlled strokes along the full length of the stone. Maintain consistent pressure and repeat on both sides of the edge until the desired sharpness and bevel refinement are achieved. Remove metal burrs by alternating light passes or by using a finer grit finish if available.

Usage recommendations

Use a stable support and keep the stone clean from metal filings during sharpening. For best results, combine this stone with a finer finishing stone or strop to achieve a refined edge. Store the stone dry and protected from impact to preserve its abrasive surface.
