Long before steel met stone, there was Novaculite—born deep within the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas and prized by Native Americans for crafting the sharpest blades known to man. Its name, derived from the Latin word novacula, meaning “razor,” captures its essence perfectly. This was more than material; it was a legacy of precision and craftsmanship. Today, that same tradition lives on in the Lansky 6-inch Hard Arkansas Benchstone—a natural sharpening hone that turns every edge into a cutting masterpiece.
