Explanation

CRASS means coarse, crude, or lacking refinement. FINE means delicate, refined, or superior in quality. The antonym works perfectly: fine denotes sophistication and refinement, directly opposite to crass coarseness. Coarse is a synonym. Heavy, dull, and honed are not true opposites in this context.
