The stone is prefilled\nwith oil to save time and eliminate the need to presoak it prior to use. The\noil prevents metal from bonding with the abrasive surface by flushing away\ndislodged abrasive and metal chips. This oilstone is commonly used to replace\na stone in the Norton IM313 sharpening system, or as a bench stone, to restore\ncutting edges on straight-edged tools such as chisels, knives, plane blades,\nand precision instruments. This aluminum oxide stone has a tough fracture- and\nwear-resistant grit that is more durable than silicon carbide and capable of\nsharpening to very close tolerances. It is created by grading aluminum oxide\nto a consistent particle size and blending it with bonding agents. It is then\nmolded and surface-finished. Unusually large dimensions of 1\/2 x 11-1\/2 x\n2-1\/2 inches (H x W x D) make this stone suitable for bench use. (H is height,\nthe vertical distance from lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal\ndistance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to\nback.) Like most oilstones, it is harder and more durable than a waterstone.\nIt conforms to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) abrasive grit\nstandards. Sharpening stones, or whetstones, are abrasive surfaces used to\nsharpen and hone the edges of steel cutting implements, such as chisels,\nknives, scissors, hand scrapers, and plane blades. Sharpening is the process\nof creating or re-establishing a cutting edge by grinding away portions of the\nmetal to adjust the angle of the edge and reform the shape. Honing removes\nsmall imperfections. Stones can be flat, for working flat edges, or shaped,\nfor edges that are more complex. Sharpening stones are made of natural or\nsynthetic materials that range from softer to harder, and are categorized by\nthe size of their abrasive particles, known as grit. A stone with a coarser\ngrit is used when more metal needs to be removed (e.g., when sharpening a\nnicked or very dull blade); the stone with the finest grit produces the\nsharpest edge. Where numbers are assigned to specify grit, they range from\ncoarser grit (low) to finer grit (high). Some sharpening stones are designed\nfor use with a lubricating liquid, some can be used dry, and others can be\nused either wet or dry. When used with lubricating liquid, a sharpening stone\ncan be called a waterstone or an oilstone, based on the lubricant required.\nNorton Abrasives manufactures sanding, grinding, and polishing abrasives, and\nhas been located in the United States since 1885. Norton, now a brand of\nSaint-Gobain, meets ISO 9000 and 14001 certification for quality and\nenvironmental management standards.

Use\nto restore slightly dulled cutting edges and enhance the finish left by Medium\nand Coarse Crystolon@ or India@ stones. Norton India@ oilstones are\nmanufactured using a proprietary process that impregnates them with a\npetroleum based product that allows the lubrication used during the sharpening\nprocess to stay on the stone's surface. As a result, the metal from the object\nbeing sharpened and small pieces of abrasive that break off the stone become\nsuspended in the lubricant.
