Leather for Hone/Slip Makers

Description

Compressed full-grained 4/5 ounce bark tanned cowhide is specifically intended for use in making hones. This 6" x 12" section of leather also includes instructions for making and using the hone. Hones work nicely for maintaining edges on sharp tools during use, depending in part on the silica contained in some animal hides. Each piece of our hone leather is hand selected, with smooth and textured sides, so that the preferred side may be used.
