Coolant and abrasive care

The presence of an abrasive stone for sharpening, honing, and grinding knives at home or in a public food establishment requires the purchase of tools that will maintain it in proper condition. Such tools include honing oil for knife sharpening and other fluids that help reduce the wear of sharpening stones.

What is honing oil, and what is it used for?

Honing oil, also known as lubricating and cooling fluid, is a product created based on water or oil for the care of sharpening stones and hones. Most of these fluids are versatile, but there are options specifically designed for use on synthetic or diamond coatings.

Honing oil is used to significantly reduce the wear of the abrasive coating, allowing it to maintain its working properties for a longer period.

The fluid can also be presented in the form of oil for honing and grinding. It can be confidently used on any type of coating, including ceramics. The main feature of such a product is that it does not solidify on the sharpening stone after application.

Oils are widely used to extend the lifespan of the stones, possess cleaning properties, and increase the degree of removal during the grinding process.

How to care for abrasives

The quality of your abrasive, its service life, and how effectively it will be used on knife edges depend on the proper care. Consider the following recommendations for caring for abrasives:

1. Abrasive coatings, especially stones, should not be left in water for an extended period.
2. Choose a storage place away from direct sunlight.
3. To avoid cracking, do not use a hairdryer for drying.
4. Do not use regular cleaning agents and chemicals.
5. Use oil during the sharpening process to prevent damage to the stone and knife edge.
