Opis
Sharpening stone:
- preporučuje se za kurete, dlijeta i skidače.
- dostupan u raznim teksturama i dizajnu kako bi zadovoljio određenu potrebu.
- lubricate often with water or oil to avoid clogging the stone’s pores with metal particles.
- should be wiped and scrubbed after each use with a clean gauze to remove metal particles.
- can be ultrasonically cleaned to remove any lubricant and metal particles before sterilization.
- should be used alternating the areas used for sharpening to prevent “grooving” in the stone.
Napomena:
Srpovi skaleri imaju šiljaste vrhove i stoga se kamen drži ravno dok se približava vrhu.
Curettes have a rounded toe, so the position of the stone is adapted to the rounded cross-section.
Sharpening evaluation:
Visual inspection of the instrument's cutting edge:
- if the cutting edge is rounded and reflects the light, then it is blunt.
- if the cutting edge is edged and doesn't reflect the light, then it is sharp.
Testing the instrument's blade with the plastic Testing Stick:
- if it runs smoothly over the Testing Stick, then it is blunt.
- if it grabs into the Testing Stick and removes small fragments of the plastic, then it is sharp.
