Levoite Premium Diamond Sharpening Stone - 6 inch / 150mm
DESCRIPTION :
Frequently, our recommendation for beginning sharpeners is to start with diamond stones as their strengths make them ideal to build a sharpening toolkit around. Diamond stones are low maintenance and durable, lasting many years with only occasional cleaning. They are among the fastest stones to use making them time efficient. Diamond grit will handle even very hard steels, and diamond stones can be used for flattening water stones. All these things make diamond stones a practical foundation for your sharpening toolkit.
These are diamond sharpening Stones that we offer measuring 6"/150mm in length by 2.5"/63mm in width. The surface area aids the sharpening performance, allows for the sharpening of wide plane blades and offers extra support for honing guides when sharpening chisels and knives. These diamond sharpening Stones have a medium strength bond and wear relatively slowly, releasing fresh, sharp abrasive at a reduced rate in comparison to stones with weaker bonds that release abrasive at higher rates and wear down more quickly.
Main Features :
1. Convenience & Durability: Diamond sharpening plates are far more durable and easily to maintain than whetstones because they won't be cratered and do not need to be flattened.

How to Choose a Diamond Sharpening Stone ?
The diamond stone works so well on coarse work because it cuts aggressively and stays flat. The water stone is great for putting on the final edge.
I use what I simply refer to as coarse, medium, and fine diamond stones. The manufacturer refers to them as coarse, fine, and extra fine. The coarse one is about a (300/400)-grit , The medium one is a (600/800)-grit and the fine one is (1,200-3000)-grit.
The advantage of the diamond stones is that they are flat and stay flat; you don’t ever have to flatten them. That’s a big advantage for me. So when I’m sharpening, I don’t ever have to worry about flattening my stones. I can just go from my work on the bench right to the sharpening station, sharpen my chisel in two or three minutes, and get right back to work.
