    Customer Reviews

    Good, simple setI bought 2 of these, one extra-fine/fine, one medium/coarse. The grit's a bit off compared to what one might expect; I'd call fine "medium", and extra-fine "fine".Still, you can put a good edge on a blade fast. They are held by the base securely, and one of the stones came with a slightly sticky pad so you could use them without the stand.I would, for normal household use, recommend the 6" stone instead; these are huge. There's no functional issue, a 6" would be more than enough for pocket and kitchen knives and easier to store. 5The sharpening stone works good, but the surface isn't flatThe sharpening stone works good, but the surface isn't flat. There are large burs and nicks on the corners that would ruin the edge of any knife edge that rolls over it. Since the packaging was in good shape, the damage must have happened at the factory. It's a shame to have to grind the corners of a brand new stone. 2I've owned these in the past and you cannot beat ...I've owned these in the past and you cannot beat the quality of the edge and the short time it takes to get you there. Always use fresh water as the cut lube and rinse the dust off the stone, and it will last for years 5Quick sharpening with no mess .I have used a variety of sharpening stones over the years .. This is not a stone but a type of diamond grit, bonded to a perforated metal backing.This 'stone' sharpens FAST ! A few swipes on each side and your knife is SHARP ! Chisels and plane irons take little more work, but nothing like a water stone or an oil stone. Plane irons come away '' wicked sharp'' as they say in New England.If you own cutting tools, you should have one of these ! 5Works very wellWorks very well. I have had one at home for several years and ordered this one for my son. I like sharp knives in the kitchen, and this DMT diamond stone makes sharpening quick and easy. 5Greatly reduced my sharpening timeI was using sandpaper to sharpen my tool blades and while that process worked well, it was a long, tedious job most of the time. After reading about sharpening with diamond stones and researching on the net I bought one of these in the double sided coarse/extra coarse. Considering the high price I was concerned about the performance. I was really pleasantly surprised as it reduced the sharpening time more that half. It worked so well that I spent the extra bucks and got the Extra-fine/fine stone. Of course, as you progress upward to finer grit the sharpening time on each stone is less as you are not trying to establish an bevel, only grind the one you made with the original honing. But this process is made significantly easier with the DMT DuoSharp stone. One caveat, get the bigger one. My coarse/extra coarse is 10 inches by 4 inches and I wish I'd gotten that size for the EF/F. It gives you a lot more sharpening area and that makes it easier to maneuver the blade as you sharpen.It's a great product. Highly recommended. 5Perfect combinationThis is one of if not the best combinations to get. The course side can be used to easily grind down edges to erase nicks or chips in the blade, and the extra fine side can be used to hone the edge to razor sharpness fairly quickly. 5Check for flatness! DMT customer service is polite but very slow.Was not Flat. I checked it on a reference granite stone, a glass surface and another granite surface. It was 1/16 inch out of flatness with a bow. Figuring I had a better chance of getting a flat replacement from the manufacturer I contacted DMT. They promised to email a return label but didn't so I shipped it back to DMT at my own expense. They confirmed it wasn't flat and promised to send me a replacement. After constant nagging by email and multiple phone calls I finally got a replacement a month later. Their customer service is very polite but slow and not very responsive. The replacement they sent is flat and worked great when I used it to refurbish a 1" chisel that was heavily nicked from abuse. Great product but double check it before using and go through Amazon first if you're in a time crunch. DMT does deserve a bit of understanding however because I was expecting quick service during some cold and snowy weather in a Boston suburb in January of 2015. 3Best Bench Stone Ever!This is the best bench stone I have ever used. Puts an incredibly sharp edge on any blade really quickly. For kitchen and field knives the extra-fine side is over-kill - you will be better off selecting a DuoSharp course / fine stone. Extra-fine is a good choice for woodworking tools, but not necessary for anything else. You will actually get a better working edge for kitchen applications from a fine stone. Regardless of which stone you choose, be sure to order a DuoBase for it. You will be glad you did. 5Aggressive sharpenerI read an article in Fine Homebuilding (March 2011 No. 217) about sharpening and they recommended this sharpener as a part of a system with other finer grits. They also recommended a honing guide that is fancier then the one I bought. This bench stone is very aggressive and very efficient. However, you need to have a way to hold whatever you are sharpening at the correct angle or this bench stone will ruin you edge. I would recommend this stone to anyone using it as a part of a sharpening routine. 5
