HORL 3 Whetstone, Fine

3000 grit corundum whetstone for refining an already sharpened edge, used dry

The HORL 3 Whetstone Fine is the first step beyond the standard diamond-and-ceramic sharpening sequence. Made from quality corundum with a 3000 grit, it further smooths an already sharpened edge to reduce cutting resistance and produce a finer level of sharpness.

HORL 3 Whetstone – Fine

Where It Fits in the Process

Use it after establishing the edge with the Diamond Standard disc and removing the burr with the Ceramic Smooth disc. The Fine whetstone works dry, so there is no soaking or water preparation before sharpening. It gives cooks with quality knives a straightforward way to move from a clean working edge into more deliberate fine honing.

The First Whetstone Stage

HORL Quick Lock lets the whetstone twist directly onto compatible HORL 3 and HORL 3 Pro sharpeners. It also forms the first stage of HORL’s finer progression, followed by the Extra Fine whetstone and, for the highest level of refinement, the Kagami.
