      Performance

      Fine natural finishing

      Yellow Lake is a relatively soft natural stone with an exceptionally fine grain. It produces a clean, refined edge and is particularly well suited to finishing straight razors.

      When used with water, the stone develops a rich slurry that provides smooth and controlled honing.

      Medium

      Water or oil

      The stone can be used with water or oil. Water is recommended for best results and helps generate a rich slurry during honing.

      Maintenance
