Low Grit (Repairing): Used to remove chips from the blade and reset the blade's bevel. The course side leaves a rough, toothy edge that may can be useable for chopping very hefty wood pieces.
Medium Grit (Refining): Used for refining the edge. This side smooths out the rough edge left by coarser stones. This produces a sharper and smoother edge, suitable for general-purpose chopping tasks.
This stone will help you keep your edge ready for chopping tasks.
