Hey guys… Am wanting to sell a couple of used sets of stones I have laying around so I can upgrade to some choseras. First off I have a used set of the old school 1200/1600 ceramics (the ones WE no longer sells. They probably have about 75% life left in them (only sharpened about 20-25 knives on them - rough estimate). I also have a set of the old school curved ceramics that are used for sharpening re-curved knives (They perform identically and look identical to the 1200/1600 grit ceramic set - I see no difference. They definitely don’t feel or look like the 400-800 grit range). These have probably 90-95% life in them, have hardly used them. Both sets have been lapped and flattened. I am asking $45 for the regular ceramics and $55 for the curved ceramics. Shipping & Handling fee is $5/set. I am only offering these here for the first few days. Thanks!
Curved ceramics sold to Ken. Still have the regular ceramics…
PS. they work great as a go between from the 1k diamonds to the 14um strops! Forgot to mention… I modified the paddles on the regular ceramics so you can get all the way to the heel of a knife. On the normal paddles, the plastic edge on the paddles gets in the way when doing knives like Spyderco’s. Now they work great!
Interesting Josh. I have that issue with the ceramics. What did you do? Remove some of the plastic? What did you use? I hadn’t thought about doing that. Great idea.
I actually used my belt sander and knocked the shoulders off… if you send me yours I’ll touch em up quick for you free of charge (just include return shipping =)). I imagine it would take FOREVER to do it any other way, lol.
My .02 - if they have only done 20-25 knives then they have a LOT more life in them than 75%. I’m using the same set I’ve had for years and they’re still going strong.
