Review: Cannot be beat for value! Excellent quality - This is an excellent diamond stone. I have numerous other ceramic, natural, Japanese, American, you name it stones and if you want to just get one, this is it. Add a strop or two and you won't need anything else. Several YouTube reviews have confirmed the quality and consistency of the diamond grit and absolute lack of any cross-contamination of the diamond substrate. The case doubles as the base and is well made. It is nice and solid while sharpening. I had an extra magnetic angle guide and putting one on each end works out quite well. I've sharpened everything from 1095 to CPM-15V, Magnacut to M4, and D2 to 3V. No issues at all! Maybe works too well because it's over pretty quick and I enjoy sharpening!
Review: The best sharpening kit - This sharpening kit is so compact and well made, there’s a simple two sided Diamond Sharpening Stone one side for aggressive sharpening of dull edges, and a honing side. Comes with a durable and compact plastic carrying case that also holds the whetstone when sharpening. Includes a plastic guide for the angle required for a knife blade. It’s a really well thought out product design that produces excellent results on my culinary knives at work. Highly recommended!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does my diamond stone feel aggressive at first but smoother over time? Is it wearing out too fast?**
A: It’s normal! The rough surface sharpens aggressively at first. With use, it smooths, exposing more diamonds for consistent performance. The break-in varies but usually takes several uses. Your stone isn’t wearing out—it’s adjusting for long-term use!

**Q: Is water or oil required during the sharpening process?**
A: Avoid using water during sharpening, as it may cause the iron filings on the stone's surface to rust. Testing shows minimal difference in sharpening performance between using oil and dry sharpening, so oil is not necessary.

**Q: After using the stone, dark areas appear on its surface. Does this mean the diamonds have worn off?**
A: No, the dark areas are dried dirt from sharpening, not a sign of the diamonds wearing off. These marks don’t affect performance and can be left as is. For minor marks, use an eraser. For tough stains, clean with Bar Keepers Friend and air dry fully.

**Q: Should I use high pressure when sharpening with this diamond stone?**
A: Avoid applying excessive pressure when sharpening, as it can accelerate wear on the diamond and shorten its lifespan. Instead, use light pressure to maximize the sharpening performance of the diamond particles.

**Q: How long does it last?**
A: The lifespan depends on usage, the hardness of the materials being sharpened, and maintenance. With proper care, it can last many years, even for those sharpening 3 to 4 times a week. Regular cleaning and light pressure extend its durability.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s tough, and it gets the job done. Nuff’ said.
*by S***X on March 1, 2019*

Honestly, until it was in hand, and had sharpened, quite literally, every knife I own, I was skeptical. Anyone whose a knife fan, knows that finding a quality diamond whetstone is a pain in the butt. Nine times out of ten, you’re lucky to get through a couple of pocket knives and fixed blade before the only good thing the darn thing is good for is a paperweight. Often, it’s not just the cheap junk that disappoints. From the complaints I’ve seen, and there are A LOT OF THEM, even some of the big name diamond whetstone manufacturers disappoint from time to time. I’ve put off writing the review, until I could put it through its paces, get a better feel for how tough it is and it’s potent longevity. There was one concern in particular, that I had only with Sharpal in general: you’d have better luck stealing the Hope Diamond than finding information about Sharpal. Seriously.... lol.... this not hyperbole.There are a few YouTube videos about this specific product (the make several products, but this one was the only product I researched), but of the, MAYBE, 5 total, three are by Sharpal, and one video each by extremely small channels. From what I can tell, this particular product has been out for awhile. So, it is a bit odd. Don’t misunderstand... I’m not making any accusations. I LOVE the product! But, if anyone from Sharpal sees this, I’d suggest maybe contacting several of the mid-level YouTubers, send out a few of these, have them pass it on to the next YouTube reviewer. The small channels, no one sees, the uber-big channels will either take weeks to get around to reviewing it, and quite frankly, I don’t trust the uber-big channels to be unbiased. Just a tiny constructive criticism, the product is awesome. So, after it arrived, I got all of my knives ( don’t get too excited, I only own 10), lined them up on the table, and went to work. Three of my knives are made from S35VN, and not that Chris Reeves, tempered to be soft crap. Sorry, brother... but the point of S35VN is that it’s hard and can take a beating. If you’re going to temper it down to practically 440C, why pay the extra money for it? Sorry... lol... anyway, three S35VN, super tough, and I took them from not being to shave arm hair, or slice paper, to shaving facial hair, with no pain or blood.. lol. Of course being a diamond whetstone, I tore through all three in less time than I’d been spending on one knife, to get it even half as sharp as these three combined. Next, two Cold Steel Bushman Bowies. An inexpensive knife, but I assure you, tough as nails. No problem! Five minutes, BAM, shaving facial hair, DONE! Next, two Mora Companions: one stainless, one carbon.... it was done quickly, during a “Walking Dead” commercial break. Of all my blades, they were in the best shape, but still... maybe 5 minutes total. Right on! Next, my Esee 5. It takes a beating, so it was in rough shape. But, being carbon steel, it took maybe 5 minutes total. Keep in mind, I suck at sharpening. And, I mean I SUCK! LOL... All thumbs. If I don’t check my angles every few strokes, I muck it up. So, not only was the Sharpal knock8ng them all out quickly, but it was knocking them out quickly with this idiot in control! Finally, a Swiss Army Knife and a Gerber folder/locking knife from back in the early 90s. Both used daily. I don’t sharpen smaller blades often, so that threw me off. But, once I got back into the groove, even with the errors I made initially, I was able to knock them both out in maybe 4, 5 minutes, tops. Again, I SUCK AT SHARPENING, so, if you’re someone who is proficient at sharpening, I’m guessing you can, AT LEAST, cut my times in half. Before writing this, I took my daily use SOG Pillar (one of the S35VN blades) to the fine side, passed it over a few strokes, got it back up to hair popping sharp after about three days of infrequent to moderate use. And the Sharpal? Lean and mean! Barely looks like it’s even been touched. Now, if you aren’t familiar with diamond whetstones, keep in mind that how rough it feels when you first unbox it, is not how rough it will feel after sharpening the first couple of knives. You have to pass metal over it a few times, Knick the tops off those microscopic diamonds. I don’t like using a brand new diamond whetstone (well... the really rough sides meant to remove steel quickly) on my favorite knives. I use a beater knife, maybe my machete. But that’s just me. I’m not super great at sharpening, so I rely on “the feel/feedback” a great deal, and until it’s broken in, I have problems. Now, I’ve only used to for those knives, but there are absolutely no places where the diamonds have been worn off, and it still rockin’ and rollin’. I was able to find out that Sharpal does use monocrystalline diamonds, and the diamonds are attached to the metal plate via electroplating. That is great. Both are very desirable, and there is simply not a better way to ensure quality and longevity, at least not yet. There is a handy little angle guide. For someone like me, it’s definately a bonus. And, it’s small. So, I take with me when I’m out, just toss it in my pocket. If needed, I’ll pull it out along with my pocket stone, get my angle, and I’m good to go. It’s actually very clever. After using the guide a few times, I’m getting better, getting that “muscle memory,” so I’m relying on the guide less and less. Pretty cool idea! Has its own plastic case. Quite tough. A grippy rubber portion on the bottom of the case, and the top is slightly recessed, allowing you to set the stone in and keep it from moving. I’m already planning to get another one, and a couple of their other products. I have to say, I am genuinely impressed. I am a HUGE SKEPTIC by nature. So, I’m the guy that goes out of his way to find fault, and frankly, I just couldn’t... LOL. Unless the darn thing up and spontaneously combust tonight, I definitely recommend it. Good product, Sharpal! 🤙
