It is in our own valley, the Saurat valley, that you will find the last French maker of natural sharpening stones.\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\tThis stone is a schistose sandstone whose fine grain and mineralogical purity allow a sound, perfect edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierre a Aiguiser des Pyrenees works two qualities of stone: the hard stone quarried underground and the soft stone taken from an open-cast deposit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hard stone is veined, with the particular feature of darker areas, which have more bite, and lighter areas, which are a little softer.\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\tIt sharpens faster than the soft stone and is the one to choose when more work is needed. This stone is particularly suited to sharpening axes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe soft (smooth) stone is far more uniform, dark grey in colour. It is used for finer, more precise sharpening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierres a Aiguiser des Pyrenees can be used dry, but also with water (which we recommend) - the contact with the blade is then a little gentler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pierre a Faux \"Saurat\" 230 x 35 x 15 is made from soft stone. It is perfect for sharpening garden tools (shears, scythes, secateurs...) but can also be used on knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo visit the maker's website, click\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pierre-a-aiguiser-naturelle.com\"\u003e here\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pierre à Aiguiser des Pyrénées","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52636669280603,"sku":"PIE-FAUXSAURAT23035","price":15.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1001\/6735\/2667\/files\/Pierre-Faux-Saurat-1-zoom.jpg?v=1774094409","url":"https:\/\/www.pyrene-bushcraft.com\/en\/products\/pierre-a-aiguiser-des-pyrenees-scythe-sharpening-stone-saurat-230-x-35-x-15","provider":"Pyrene Bushcraft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
