Natural Sharpening Stones

These premium natural finishing stones are essential for achieving a flawless, razor-sharp edge on shechita knives. Each stone is meticulously prepared for shechita use—polished to an ultra-fine grit between 10,000 and 20,000, and carefully rounded at the edges to prevent nicks or damage during use.

• Stone Dimensions
• Canadian Green Stone - 6" x 2" x 0.5"
  
• Israeli Black Stone - 8" x 1.95" x 0.5"
• Israeli Green Stone - 7.65" x 2" x 0.5"
  

The Israeli stones are mounted on non-slip rubber bases for improved durability enhanced stability during use. The Canadian green stones were imported from Canada and prepared here in the NJ area. 

While it is customary for shochtim to purchase both the Green and Black natural stones, each of these finishing stones is fully capable of delivering the superior edge required for proper shechita. Green stones tend to have a higher grit than black and green stones, but all are very closely matched in grit quality.

Natural stones should be worked with a small piece of 1500#-2000# grit wet sandpaper (included with purchase) before each use.
