Our Niwaki Stones work for just about every edged blade:
- #220: coarse, for rough blades
- #1000: fine, for regular sharpening - the most useful stone for every day sharpening
- #3000: super fine, for honing and detailed work
For Secateurs:
NB. We strongly advise NOT taking your secateurs apart - they never go back together quite the same.
- Soak stones in water for a few minutes before use, and keep wet during use
- Use the concave edge of the stone, moving from the pivot towards the tip of the blade, following the curve as you go
- FOR STRAIGHT BLADED SHEARS use the flat side of the stone
- Then back again - back and forth along the whole length of the blade
- Use as much of the stone as possible, not just the top inch
- This is a gentle action - don’t use too much pressure
- Next, turn the secateurs over, and use the flat side of the stone to smooth the burr off the inside of the blade, going slightly over, creating a very fine bevel
- Use the convex edge of the stone to clean off the curved edge of the bypass
- Finally, clean and dry the secateurs, and wipe with Camellia Oil
