    Description

    Lil’ plate -  The face laps or hones. U.S. made in Fort Lauderdale.
    Lapping/Honing plate A36 steel Lil’ Plate. Made in Florida Approx. 3” x 2 1/2” x  7/8”. Its face is divoted to Lap or hone. An easily moveable EDC and carry. Serrated- corrugated sides for handling. Face was manually fly cut, then manually surface ground flat to about .0005” flat deviation (at an off-0-degree with a finish not glass mirror-like but a touch of tooth to permit micro capture of grit) and lightly lapped.
    Its face is divoted much like special micro diamond stones with the thin sheet steel cover. This lets you both use the divot side as a lapping plate or a hone.
    Each of my newest series of plates have the most minor of inclusion such as a small hairline or peck, but nothing to affect lapping or honing since they're sub surface
