## Belgian Blue Whetstone
The Belgian Blue Whetstones from Ardennes Coticule are natural sharpening stones with unique features. The sharpening stones consist of 30% garnets. These are particles that are released as you use it and make sure the stone can do what it is meant to: sharpen your knives. It is a 100% natural product from the Belgian Ardennes and each sharpening stone is modified by hand. Little differences in terms of shape, colour and size can therefore occur.
## Use
Make sure you add water to the stone before use. You don’t need to submerge it for a specific period of time. The grain size of this sharpening stone corresponds with a 4000 grit Japanese sharpening stone. However, do keep in mind that the pressure you apply as you use the stone will also affect the coarseness of the stone. If you apply a lot of pressure more particles will be released. As such it will become even coarser. If you apply less pressure less particles will be released. Because these particles slowly wear out this sharpening stone will become finer in time.
