Rachel,
I packed my sharpening stone in my carry-on bag once and, unfortunately, would not risk it again. The x-ray machine flagged it as a dangerous weapon, possibly due to the metallic residue still present on the surface of the stone. The security agent then had to inspect all of my bags (including my oboe case) by hand. He told me that I should always pack sharpening equipment in my checked baggage. I heeded his advice, and I haven't had any similar incidents since then.
Happy travels!
