S SATCDiamond Sharpening Stone 2 Side Grit 400/1000 Diamond Plate Honing Stone 8-inch Hone Sharpener White

This diamond plate is great for what it is. It's strictly for profiling. Don't need to be anything special but it works great for profiling. I also bought the sharpal double sided plate. This works just as well as that one. I just use this one to preserve the more expensive one.I will be buying another one of these soon just to have for when this one wears out. They are cheap yet good.It is good and solid. Has a very nice weight to it. It doesn't fit in my current stone holder so I ordered a new one. I'm sure it'll work great.Most other cheap stones like this are paper thin and bend. This one is thick and flat. Just great overall.I'm not a fan of the pattern on the plate but it doesn't effect the way it works.Either way I will buy Another and I suggest you do to.

I picked up this S SATC diamond sharpening stone specifically for guitar fret leveling, and it works like a charm. The 400 grit side quickly handles high spots, while the 1000 grit side smooths things out without needing much follow-up polishing. It’s flat, consistent, and makes the whole process faster and easier. If you’re doing fret work, this is a solid, affordable tool that gets the job done right.

Decent beginner stone that doesn't break the bank. This was the first diamond stone that I bought when getting into sharpening and it served me pretty well. I'm no expert but this stone was inexpensive and worlds better than those terrible aluminum oxide sharpening stones for sure. It was decently flat, the course side worked well for getting big nicks out or resetting the edge angle, the fine side gets the edge pretty sharp on it's own but paired with a leather strop I got all the knives in my kitchen shaving razor sharp. Eventually it does seem like the diamond surface starts to actually smooth down after lots of use, I'm guessing this just comes with the territory with cheaper made stones and I just upgraded to a Sharpal stone which is considerably more expensive but hopefully will last longer as well. Overall would recommend for someone getting into sharpening for sure.

Great addition to any sharpening setup. Well made and performs, convenient size.

Works great, very good for the price. I’d recommend using a leather strap with it. I am a rookie at sharpening and I was able to sharpen any knife to the point of slicing paper easily and shaving hairs.

I wanted an inexpensive diamond stone to sharpen my kitchen knives. In the past I've either used a variety of honing stones and a buffing wheel (slow and messy but produces an edge you can shave with), or one of those inexpensive sharpeners where you drag the blade through (fast but inconsistent results and doesn't always leave a good edge). I decided that something in between would be a better choice.I bought this based on a recommendation from the Outdoor55 YouTube channel. He uses this stone to sharpen several different blades very quickly, though he usually follows it up with a leather strop (I usually don't bother). When I saw it for sale for less than $20, I decided to try it.I used it to sharpen one of my large kitchen knives, an older Cutco that has seen a lot of use and abuse. Other reviewers state that the stone is initially quite aggressive and they are right. I placed a few drops of water on the 400 grit side and used it to (mostly) reprofile the edge of the blade. I then flipped the stone over and sharpened it with the 1000 grit side, again using some water. The stone leaves a fairly rough edge even when using the 1000 grit side, but this should improve once it breaks in a bit more.I spent perhaps 2 minutes on this blade. I didn't strop it afterward to get it really sharp, I didn't break in the stone, and I certainly didn't get anything perfect. All I did was to undo some of the irregularities that the drag-through sharpener had left behind and gave it a clean edge. When I was done, the knife was sharp enough to slice onions cleanly. It's sharp enough to use as-is, though it could easily be made sharper with a finer stone and/or a leather strop.The stone has some weight to it so it won't shift around while you're trying to sharpen your knife. No idea how it will break in over time, though I'm satisfied with its performance right out of the box. All I wanted was an inexpensive coarse/fine diamond stone that will make kitchen knives reasonably sharp quickly, and this stone does that. Someday I may strop one of the blades after using this stone to see how sharp I can get it, but for now I don't feel the need.

Looks like a decent stone, but had a non-removable blemish on the 600 grit side. I tried acetone, alcohol, and glass cleaner, but under a microscope, it looks like rusted gouge. And it hangs up the knife blade if I try to sharpen. Awaiting replacement.UPDATE: The replacement stone is in perfect condition. This is a good stone for establishing a rough apex. (You can use either side for that, though it's a bit faster on the 150 side.) The first one took over a month to arrive. The replacement took about a week.

I’m sure the similar product selling for $248 is probably better in some way, though that $ buys a lot of these excellent plates. 150/600 is sweet for flattening everything I own (which is approximately one of everything), minimal wear in after several flattenings, most importantly its dead flat to the degree I’m able to measure. 10/10, buying another just because. Oh, I did hog off some metal on a chisel setting a new bevel and it did its job beautifully. It’s unbelievably coarse and I’m here for it. Note: I have no idea how accurate the “grit” claims are and don’t care.
