Ordered one of these and it was delivered next day in an enormous envelope. You can't go wrong for £5 and free postage. Very aggressive cut but ideal for sorting out nicks and chips.

And I got a second one and as advised here managed to get it out of the holder to use the fine surface underneath!

Just ordered one!

Ho do you get them out? I seem to have missed that bit!

I bought 1 but then once it arrived thought 5 for £20 too good to miss so now I've got 6. Take the plastic lid off, drop it on the workshop floor and all mine separated leaving just the stones. There's a bit of glue residue on the fine side but even that comes off quite easily

Mine were very slightly concave along their length, doesn't bother me but might upset flatnazis.

Pete: I did it more delicately, pushing the stone through the holes in the underside! A steady pressure slowly releases the glue.

.... Take the plastic lid off, drop it on the workshop floor ...

From what height ? and what type of floor do you recommend ? do you think the kitchen floor might work ? :lol:

 

[No skills]

Must be slate floor and be dropped at a 25 degree angle. Don't forget to strop afterwards (if it lands on your toe).

I meant to e mail you about these the other week.
I have one as well. Am impressed so plan to buy 5 more, if you like the one, and want another we can do a deal?.?

When it arrives it's easy to see how it comes out

 

[Woodchips2]

Why do they advertise them as single sided when there's a fine stone on the reverse? :roll:

I wondered about that too.
Guess the fine side failed QA for some reason

I could use one in the kitchen for sharpening knives, so if you do order some let me know.

Hi David,
Thanks for the heads up,I will have some of that.

I removed the stone from the stand by prodding through the hole with a dowel.

A little spot of the metal/plating came off the plate, and remained on the stand - so that
might be a warning for others, perhaps some heat might soften the glue.

it looks like they just hot-glued the stone to the stand.
