Niwaki Tool Sharpening Stone – 220 Grit
A coarse, fast-cutting stone designed to bring very dull or damaged blades back into working order. Recommended by Japanese blacksmiths, it’s the first step for tools that need serious attention before moving to a finer grit.
–––
Coarse Grit for Restoring Blades
The #220 grit removes material quickly, reshaping and re-establishing an edge on secateurs, clippers, topiary shears and other hardworking garden tools. Ideal when your blades are rough, nicked or far past their best.
–––
Concave Side for Curved Edges
Includes a shallow concave surface that fits neatly into the inner curve of many tool blades, making it easier to reach tricky areas safely and effectively.

A Proper Workshop Essential
Perfect as the first stage in a sharpening routine before progressing to a 1000-grit stone for refinement.
