Flattening Stones (Truing Stones), Silicon Carbide Powder
→ to flatten Waterstones
A sharpening stone flattening block is used to dress stones that are no longer flat enough to sharpen properly. A flat stone is indispensable for effective sharpening, especially with flat blades like chisels and plane irons. To quickly flatten a stone, one simply moves it over the surface of the flattening block with a circular or back and forth movement. A steel flattening block should be used only with Silicon carbide powder. A Silicon carbide flattening block can be used without powder but you can speed up the process still further when you sprinkle a little Silicon carbide powder onto the block. The latter method is strongly recommended for hard stones i. e. the Shaptons. But if one uses the powder, the sharpening stone must be thoroughly washed with water afterwards.
NANIWA Flattening Stone for Sharpening Stones (Truing Stone)
These large flattening stones are ideal for flattening the surface of sharpening stones that have had a hollow or groove worn in them. A flat stone is vital for a good sharpening job. We offer these stones in three different grit sizes, allowing you to match the flattening stone to the sharpening stone in terms of speed in flattening and the smoothness of the finished surface. In principle one stone is all you really need, if you are prepared to put up with some disadvantages. A relatively coarse flattening stone works quickly, but leaves behind a rough surface on finer stones. This does not impair its function, but you usually end up grinding off more material than you need to. With a finer flattening stone, it takes more time, of course, but you end up with a smoother surface. Naniwa flattening stones are made of silicon carbide. More ...

Small NANIWA Flattening Stone
These small flattening stones are less comfortable than the large types. You need more experience and more effort to achieve a good result with this smaller flattening surface. We offer these small stones in three different grit sizes, allowing you to match the flattening stone to the sharpening stone in terms of speed in flattening and the smoothness of the finished surface. A relatively coarse flattening stone works quickly, but leaves behind a rough surface on finer stones.
