Thread: Hi from RI

Hi and welcome. Can't help with information on the link but use the search as a lot of vendors have info about them buried on the site and you can often find what you want to know.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you dedicate stones Just For Razors. I also recommend the Norton Tri Stone/oil stone for your knives. Back in the 70's I was a meat cutter and the man that taught me how to sharpen a knife had started as an apprentice meat cutter in 1934. He used the Tri Stone and I have two here at the Boars Nest/one is mine in a plastic base the other is my son's a gift from a good friend of mine and it's a Vintage one as it's in a cast iron base with a steel lid.

Norton 3 Stone IM313 System

The stone sizes are the same on both and are available if replacement is needed and I wouldn't let either one go for love nor money as they both will put a great edge on any knife.

Hello Greg, and welcome to SRP. I agree with the above advice!!

welcome and enjoy.
