These Carborundum stones are not sold as sharpening stones, but rather as "rub bricks" for tile work. They're intended to be used to smooth down cut edges of tile.
I bought them a good while back to try out as sharpening stones for when I didn't have a grinder handy.
This afternoon, I sharpened four chisels that had some damage to their edges. I hadn't realized until I started to use it that my CBN wheel was worn to the point that it wouldn't put a pretty, straight grind on anything, so I drug these stones out.
They worked better than I thought they might. It wasn't really much slower than using a grinder. I don't think you want to skip grits though. At first I tried putting oil in them, but it would probably have taken a quart to saturate them, so I took them out to use a water hose, which worked fine.
The 24 and 46 stones are a little smaller than I like, but they worked okay. The foot long 80 grit's size is really nice.
I finished the chisels on my oil stones because I don't have my sharpening sink set up here. The edge of that chisel in the picture looks like it's really screwed up if you zoom in, but that's a Big Honking wavy wire edge!!! It cleaned right up starting on the purplish Washita stone.
I wish they made a 24 grit wheel for my mower blade sharpener. That thing Eats metal.
