Considered the coarsest of the Arkansas sharpening stones. This stone will provide the initial edge and first level of polishing, but is primarily used for sharpening.

Hard Arkansas: (fine density)

The recommended stone for work that requires a smooth polish, but not the finest polish. This stone will provide a final hone and polish edge.

Black Arkansas: (extra fine density)

Harder and finer than Hard Arkansas. Not as pure black as Surgical Black Arkansas. Coloration is more dark grey than black. This stone will polish finer than Soft and Hard Arkansas stones.

Surgical Black Arkansas: (ultra fine density)

The hardest and finest of the Arkansas sharpening stones. Prized by machinists, tool and die makers for its precision honing and polishing capabilities. Also used for testing gold content.

Translucent Arkansas: (x-ultra fine density)

The rarest of Arkansas sharpening stones. Translucent stones in their purest form are white. Translucent stones may contain shades of pink, yellow, and grey. The Translucent sharpening stone produces the highest polished, razor edge.
