- Dry use – no water or oil needed, ideal for quick use anywhere
- Leather pouch – protects the stone and also works as a stropping surface
- 🔴 Limitations
- Small size – less suitable for large blades or systematic sharpening of multiple knives
- Coarser CBN structure – does not provide a “mirror” finish like ceramic or Arkansas stones
