These CBN Hand Hones are for sharpening plane blades and are made for woodworkers.

• 1/4" thick steel plate
• 2.75" x 8" covered with CBN  material - 180 grit one side / 220 grit one side, 350 grit one side / 600 grit one side, or 1000 one side / 1200 one side

Most woodworkers complain that the stones and diamond plates used to sharpen their planes simply are not long enough to get a good stroke. Well—problem solved. These hones are oversized (and they cost less than my competitors), they are a full 8" long by 2.75" wide, made of hefty 1/4" thick steel. Compare these to other face plates that are 6" long and 2" wide.
