2nds. Own one of Dan Whestone's sharpening stones handsomely packaged in an aromatic cedar box. In the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas lie the nearly pure silica rock formations known as Novaculite, a compact, quartzose rock deriving its name from “Novacula”, a Latin word meaning “sharp knife”. This natural Arkansas stone has a crystalline structure of individual quartz grains with voids and exposures of crystalline edges that enhance the sharpening ability of this natural abrasive. Use with honing oil to keep your stone free of shavings that can clog the pores of the stone and make it less effective.

    Stone is a lot thinner than I expected. I will have to wait and see if the flaw in the stone will give me problems in the future.That being, that part of the stone will fracture off from use.
