Boride set of grinding stones Universal
The set of Boride stones is collected from various series and is intended for sharpening of knives from any steels. The set includes 5 stones with a grain size: 150; 220; 400; 600; 1200, which will be enough for all stages of sharpening, from peeling to the final grinding. And the smooth reduction of grain, from stone to stone, guarantees efficient sharpening with minimal time.
All stones are 6 mm thick and mounted on high-quality aluminum blanks with laser engraving
You can work both "dry" and with ordinary water (or a little soap). It is not recommended to use force and pressure during sharpening / finishing!
Does not require special care. Cleaned under running water with a soapy stiff brush (can be a toothbrush). Align after formation on silicon carbide.
Note: Boride stones can have the following defects: saw marks on the work surface, minor chips at the corners and edges (no more than 1 mm).
From myself: Stones are very good in work, on quality favorably differ from stones of the Ukrainian production. They are made of different materials and on different bonds, which makes them very versatile in relation to work with different steels. Work with both water and oil.
Grain table:
on a scale FEPA-F (America) | Grain size in microns | on a scale FEPA-P (Europe) | on a scale JIS (Japan) |
| F150 | ~110 μm | P180 | J150 |

Hapstone Set Silicon Carbide Stone
Silicon Carbide Sharpening Stones are used for sharpening knives using Hapstone sharpeners. The stones are made of silicon carbide and are designed for the hardest steels (up to 65 HRC). The set of 5 stones: 120, 240, 600, 1000 and 2500 grit (JIS).
It is advisable to use silicon carbide stones for sharpening knives made of hard stainless steel or carbon steel, such as: ZDP-189, ZDP-247, S30V, S35VN, S90V, S110V, 154CM, D2, YXR7, Cowry, S290, S390, K294, K390, M390, Elmax, 154CPM, ATS-34, 440C, AUS-8, AUS-10, A2, BG-42.. Using silicon carbide stones to sharpen knives made of soft steel is not recommended, as it will cause the stones to wear at the increased rate. However, coarse silicon carbide stones of 120 and 240 grit can be used as a universal stone due to their harder bonding.
All stones are 6 mm thick and mounted on high-quality aluminum blanks with laser engraving
How to use
HapstoneSilicon Carbide Stones are preliminarily lapped and does not require lapping after purchase.
Silicon Carbide Stones are recommended to be used with water as a lubricant. Soak the stone for 1-2 minutes and splash water on the stone's surface to prevent drying.
FAQ
What is the difference between Silicon Carbide and Boride CS-HD?
Both series are extremely good, but it's very difficult to answer the question. Parameters of an abrasive and bonding of Boride CS-HD series is the intellectual property of Boride. We can say for sure that Hapstone uses harder bonding for 120 and 240 grit, and bonding of equal hardness for 400, 600 and 1000 grit. CS-HD offers 9 grits, while Hapstone offers 5 grits only.
Hapstone set Aluminum Oxide Stone
Aluminum Oxide Sharpening Stones are used for sharpening knives using Hapstone knife sharpeners. The stones are made of aluminum oxide and are designed for soft or medium steels (up to 59 HRC).
The set of 5 stones: 120, 240, 600, 1000 and 2500 grit (JIS). All stones are 6 mm thick and mounted on high-quality aluminum blanks with laser engraving
It is advisable to use aluminum oxide stones for sharpening knives made of soft stainless steel: 1095, 1080, 1070, 1050, 420, 440A, 440B, 3Cr13, 8Cr13MoV, 8Cr14MoV, 9Cr14MoV, AUS-4, AUS-6. Using aluminum oxide stones to sharpen knives made of hard steel is not recommended because of low performance.
Hapstone Aluminum Oxide Stones are preliminarily lapped and does not require lapping after purchase.
Hasptone Aluminum Oxide Stones are recommended to be used with water as lubricant. Soak the stone for 1-2 minutes and splash water on the stone's surface to prevent drying.
Advantages of aluminum blanks
- If you accidentally drop the stone, it's less likely you break it;
- Much longer life span for the stone after multiple flattening and lapping;
- Easy identification due to laser engraving;
- Reliable clamping for stones of imperfect shape.

Gunny Glide Graphene Lubricant
Gunny Glide is a revolutionary graphene/h-BN based lubricant designed to work on all surfaces. Graphene and hexagonal boron nitride are two-dimensional one-atom-thick materials.
Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, is 200x stronger than steel and has more lubricity than any single material known. Graphene when suspended in a lubricant and applied to a surface will burnish itself to that surface. It not only fills any pores or defects in a surface but burnishes to in a sense become part of that surface. This allows the lubricant to become better the more two parts slide across one another. Graphene offers superior lubrication and surface wear protection. Gunny Glide also offers outstanding protection against corrosion.
Boron Nitride is a thermally and chemically resistant refractory compound of boron and nitrogen with the chemical formula BN. It exists in various crystalline forms that are isoelectronic to a similarly structured carbon lattice. The hexagonal form corresponding to graphite is the most stable and soft among BN polymorphs, and is therefore used as a lubricant and an additive to products. Using h-Boron Nitride adds chemical stability to the product while also enhancing lubricant capabilities.
What’s the difference in Gunny
Glide and other graphene lubricants? Graphene is generally just added to
a lubricant and shaking is required in order to suspend it for use. In
Gunny Glide, a patent pending process helps to keep the graphene
suspended and creates a better environment for even distribution of the
graphene.
Gunny Glide continues to get better with use. Works great
on knife pivots, firearms, blade surfaces for corrosion protection and
much more. It really excels as an all purpose lubricant.
Gunny Juice Poly Diamond Emulsion (Suspension)
Model: Diamond Emulsion
Gunny Juice Polycrystalline Diamond Suspension is a very effective method of honing and polishing the cutting edge of the knife. Gunny Juice is created through a proprietary deionization process offering agglomerate-free dispersion of diamond particles for submicron grits. In conjunction with a very tight particle size distribution, the process permits scratch-free polishing results.
Gunny Juice is available in many grits in 10 ml and 30 ml volume.
The diamond suspension can be used with any strop made of leather, balsa, or nano cloth.
To use, simply pump the desired amount of suspension on your stropping medium, spread evenly, let dry, then use as usual.
You will not be able to fully remove the compound after applying it to the strop. If you want to use your strop both with and without compound, you must, therefore, keep one side clean. If you want to switch between one compound and another, consider buying an extra strop.
Compound residue accumulates in the leather during stropping. If stropping performance gets worse, remove the residue with a knife spine or special tool, and apply the fresh compound.
Stone Holder for Work Sharp Precision Adjust 4" (10 cm)
Work Sharp Precision Adjust is a fantastic sharpener. The big disadvantage among users of the Worksharp system is the limitation of the three stock sharpening stones mounted on the proprietary holder.
4" (10 cm) Stone Holder for Work Sharp Precision Adjust overcomes the limitation. As of today, you may use any 4" sharpening stones including the KME form-factor and Venev Dog Series dual-side diamonds.
Note. It's very important to keep a sharpening angle consistent. The angle should not change when progressing to a next stone. If the thickness changes, the sharpening angle changes. Unchecked, this can ruin your sharpening. Use a digital angle gauge to monitor the sharpening angle when you replace a stone in the stone holder. Use the angle adjustment knob of the sharpener if necessary.
Venev Set "Dog" Series Dual Side Diamond 4"
Venev Dog Series Dual Side Diamonds are used for guided knife sharpeners or as a pocket sharpening stone. It's the least expensive bonded diamond for guided sharpeners on the market. Diamond sharpening stones offer excellent performance in sharpening knives of any steel.
Dog Series is dual side diamond with two 1 mm-thick diamond-bearing layers on the aluminum plate. The diamond-bearing plate contains evenly distributed diamond grains with resin bonding. The manufacture of bonded diamonds is more complex than for coated diamonds. Bonded diamonds provide better feedback and give the sharpening stone a much longer lifespan.
The OCB version of Venev Diamonds utilizes a brand-new yellow binder with no abrasive particles in the composition. OCB is available in fine grits only and offers better scratch-free sharpening results.

How to use
Venev Diamonds are recommended to be used with water as a lubricant for the best feedback. The diamond does not absorb water. Splash water on the stone's surface. Dry usage is an acceptable practice, although it results in faster wearing and speeds up stone loading.
