CHOOSING THE CORRECT STONE

• 200 grit – Course is best used for burr removal and sharpening. This stone will even sharpen your edges without using a file first. It’s always a good idea to carry one in your pocket for a quick hand sharpen or to remove rock damage on the mountain.
• 400 grit – Medium is used for sharpening and polishing. The most commonly used diamond and a good in-between grit.
• 600 grit – Fine is best used for the polishing and finishing of your edges.
• 1000 grit is used when you desire an extra high polish finish. When you’re concerned about hundredths of a second or really care about how the edges perform on the hardest snow surfaces.

GOOD TO KNOW
