Description
Diamond stones are very low maintenance. They don’t need flattening, the surface doesn’t need prepping before use and they can even be used dry. That said, we recommend using a cutting fluid, such as water, to rinse away the swarf (metal particles) left behind during sharpening.
The life of the diamond is a factor of how often you use your stone and how well you take care of it. If diamond stones are properly maintained, meaning they are kept clean and stored dry, they can last a long time.

Chose this one after looking around for a long time turned out to be excellent. If you want to shave the hair off your arm this is the tool for it.

have never used one of these style of sharpeners before. toke me a knife or 2 to get the hang of it. would not use anything else. the knives are noticeably sharper than the drag through version I was using before.
