A sharp blade makes all the difference. Secateurs and shears glide through stems with less effort and a clean cut, which helps plants heal quickly, while blunt blades crush and tear. A few minutes with a whetstone now and then keeps your favourite tools working beautifully for years.
This set gives you six whetstones, each a different grade and a different colour, so you can tell at a glance which one to reach for. Start with the coarsest to repair a nicked or very dull edge, then work through the finer grades to hone and polish it to a keen finish.
Use them on secateurs, shears, loppers and other bladed garden tools. The stones come in a faux leather wallet that keeps them together in the shed, potting bench drawer or tool bag.
Once sharpened, wipe the blade clean and dry, then finish with a few drops of our Camellia Tool Care Oil to keep rust at bay.
For a single two-sided stone, see our Traditional Sharpening Stone Block.
