FAQs
Which HORL sharpeners does the Premium Set fit?
The two whetstones fit the HORL 3 Oak, HORL 3 Walnut and HORL 3 Pro. They do not fit the HORL 3 Cruise or HORL 2. The HORL Leather works with any knife.
What order should I use the HORL 3 Premium Set in?
Refine the sharpened edge first with the #3000 Fine whetstone, then the #6000 Extra Fine whetstone, and finish with the HORL Leather.
Does the Premium Set replace the standard diamond and ceramic discs?
No. It is a refinement system used after the basic edge has already been established and honed.
Do the whetstones need to be soaked?
No. HORL specifies that both whetstones are used dry.
Does the leather require honing compound?
No. HORL designed the leather to be used without additional honing compound.
What does the leather do after the whetstones?
Its finely pored surface removes residual grinding particles and remaining burr to leave the edge smooth and clean.

HORL 3 Premium Set (HORL 3 Whetstone – Fine
Two Whetstones, Fine Then Extra Fine
Start with the HORL 3 Whetstone Fine at #3000 grit, then move to the Whetstone Extra Fine at #6000 grit. Both corundum whetstones are used dry and are intended for an edge that has already been sharpened and freed of its burr. The two stages progressively smooth the cutting edge rather than replacing the initial sharpening process.
