Product Details
CBN™ 3" x 8" Sharpening Knife Stone by Spyderco®. Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) is a high-tech superabrasive that is second in hardness only to diamond. Offering greater abrasion resistance and thermal conductivity than conventional abrasives like silicon carbide and aluminum oxide, CBN removes steel quickly and efficiently. Spyderco's new 3x8 benchstone combines the many advantages of CBN with a classic flatstone format to supercharge traditional sharpening technique. The broad, perfectly flat carbon steel embryo of this stone is coated with fast-cutting 400-mesh CBN on one side and finer 800-mesh CBN on the other. Ideal for putting an edge on knives, this stone is also the perfect choice for sharpening wood chisels, plane irons, and similar tools and comes complete with a highquality suede protective case.

Spyderco® was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Initially, the company focused on selling our first product - the Tri-Angle Sharpmaker™ - primarily at fairs and trade shows around the country. In 1981, the Glessers put down roots in Golden, Colorado and introduced the first Spyderco folding knife. That knife pioneered the concept of a round hole in the blade for one-handed opening, a clip on the handle for carry at the top of the pocket, and the option of a serrated edge for aggressive cutting performance. Those features revolutionized the knife industry and literally defined the form of the modern folding knife. Since then, Spyderco has steadily grown to become one of the leaders in the cutlery industry. In addition to a worldwide distribution network and manufacturing resources in the U.S., Japan, Taiwan, Italy, and China, our innovation has also earned us an impressive portfolio of patents, trademarks, and industry awards. More importantly, it has allowed us to earn the trust and loyalty of countless thousands of dedicated knife users around the world - an audience to whom we are extremely grateful.
