LanskyUltra-Fine Ceramic Knife Sharpening Hone (1000 Grit) - S1000

Quality Product, Delivered on time. I will buy again when this one needs to be replaced.

I bought the standard 3-stone Lansky kit, and while it handles 90% of my knife sharpening, this 1000 grit stone is a good addition for certain blades where you want a finer edge. It’s very hard and should last a long time.

llego bien y cumple su trabajo

I recently bought a Lansky Diamond Deluxe system along with the metal stand and two extra hones, the Ultra Fine and the Super Sapphire. This review is about the Ultra Fine Hone which is simply amazing. I use the Ultra Fine right after Im done with the Diamond Hones (Extra Coarse, Coarse, Medium, Fine) and it cleans up the edge and gets it ready for the Super Sapphire. With this system I can Repair, Reprofile, Sharpen, and Mirror Polish my knives so they look and cut like a dream. Its unbelievable how much work each of these hones does on their own, just this Ultra Fine Hone alone removes all grit lines and scratches left by the diamond hones. It makes the edge smooth and clean, and makes it easier to finish the Mirror Polish with the Super Sapphire. The best part about this entire system, it can sharpen ALL my knives, from my small pocket knives, medium and large kitchen knives, thick fixed blade hunting knives, EDC folders made of the latest super steels, and my recurves! I would highly recommend this Ultra Fine Hone and the Entire Lansky Diamond Deluxe System with the Metal Stand and Super Sapphire Hone.

The 1000 grit stone put a razor sharp edge on my two hunting Knife's

I purchased this because I wasn't getting the razor sharp edges I wanted when using the coarse, medium, and fine grit stones. My prior knife sharpening technique involved using a leather strop with strop compound to try to get a mirror finish, but I could never get the results I wanted. After adding the 1,000 grit stone to the process, the edge was much smoother, almost mirror like, and ready for the stropping action. I was finally able to easily slice through a piece of paper from our local phone book. I think I am going to try the super sapphire stone (2,000 grit) next and see if that helps as much as the 1,000 grit stone did.

Bought this to enhance my kit and add a good hone. Now have a complete set and works great. This gets that fine hone (before stropping) to ensure a razor-sharp edge. Works great.

Ok, this stone isn't included in most of the Lansky kits. But if you're buying a Lansky kit, you should buy this stone. It's one step past the fine stone, and is listed as being 1000 grit. It works great for putting a fine polish on the bevel of the knife edge. Usually this is the last step of the sharpening process. Of course, there is one more level of stone, the Sapphire at 2000 grit. But realistically this is as fine a stone as most people need.Tip #1: If you buy a Lansky kit, buy this stone as an accessory.Tip #2: The guide rods are not included when you buy individual stones. The stones are available from the Lansky site, 4 rods for 2 bucks.Tip #3: The holes in each Lansky stone are at slightly different angles relative to the hone surface. Align the rod to an individual stone, and leave them assembled. It'll save on fiddling when you reassemble the stones and rods later.
