Built for serious edge maintenance in a compact format, the AAPCO 2 Stone Honing Kit delivers field-ready sharpening performance with time-tested materials. Inside, you’ll find two natural Arkansas novaculite stones—each measuring 3.5 inches long, 1 5/8 inches wide, and 1/2 inch thick. The set includes one Soft Arkansas stone (~600 grit) and one Hard Arkansas stone (~1200–1500 grit), giving you a complete sharpening progression from edge setting to final honing. A 1-ounce bottle of premium honing oil rounds out the kit, helping prevent clogging while improving overall sharpening effectiveness.
The Soft Arkansas stone serves as the coarser of the two, designed to quickly restore edges, remove small chips, and bring dull blades back to life. Once the edge is re-established, the Hard Arkansas stone takes over, delivering refined, high-performing edges with a fine polish. Together, they form a versatile, portable system well-suited for knives, multi-tools, outdoor blades, and woodworking tools.
Quarried in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas, each novaculite stone is precision-cut, lapped flat, and individually inspected for quality and consistency. Novaculite’s fine-grained crystalline structure gives these stones their dependable sharpening feel, along with the natural light gray tone Arkansas stones are known for. The included honing oil keeps the sharpening surface clean by lifting away swarf, maintaining the stone’s bite and lifespan over time.
Compact enough for tool rolls, glove compartments, or field packs, this kit was made for tradesmen, woodworkers, hunters, and anyone who demands a clean, sharp edge wherever they are. Whether you're honing a pocketknife on a jobsite or refining a carving tool at camp, this kit delivers the control, portability, and quality you need.
Proudly made in the USA from genuine natural materials, the AAPCO 2 Stone Honing Kit offers a no-nonsense, highly effective sharpening system that fits in your pocket and performs like it belongs on a workbench. Shop all your knife care and maintenance needs at SMKW!
