Review: It’s tough, and it gets the job done. Nuff’ said. - 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! 🤙
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!

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top quality product that works exactly as designed, and a great price!
*by S***N on May 19, 2020*

This is my very first "sharpening system" that I have purchased primarily for sharpening my woodworking tools. I always wanted to go straight to diamond whetstones due to their low maintenance and longevity compared to traditional oil or water stones, but I couldn't bring myself to pay that initial expense. Then comes along this Sharpal system (I bought the 3"x8" variety). The price was so good, I was a bit leary about the quality or whether or not it would last. Not having much experience sharpening hand woodworking tools, I wasn't even sure if the basic two-grit system (325 and 1200 for this set) would work (including a leather strop, which I purchased separately). Sharpal's description of their product checked all the right boxes: monocrystaline diamonds, electroplated bonding, super flat plate, storage and holding case. With the 3 year warranty and the great price, I decided I had nothing to lose, so I took the plunge. I used it for the first time yesterday (along with an off-brand "Eclipse" style honing guide that I also recently purchased). I had a #4 plane iron and a set of 4 chisels that needed sharpening. The iron is used (~100 years old) and just needed a basic touch-up, but the chisels were brand new and had never been set up or sharpened (except by the factory). In all cases, the Sharpal system performed fantastically well. All of my worries about only having a coarse and extra fine grit (and stroping) step in my sharpening process were laid to rest. These two grits along with the strop were all I needed to get hair-shaving-, magazine-paper-slicing-sharp edges on my tools. Sharpal says to sharpen dry, but I decided to use some Windex for this first go-around (based on what I've learned from the web). It worked just fine. I will likely try to sharpen dry, like Sharpal recommends, next time around. One thing I noticed is that, when I was all done, it took a bit of effort to clear out all of the metal dust, even though I was using the Windex to keep metal from building up. I have to wonder, then, if the Windex made much difference. In any case, when I was finished, I rinsed the plate under the sink and scrubbed it with my fingers (I didn't have a nylon brush handy). It came clean at the expense of my finger prints. :) The base/case works very well. It protects the plate while stored, has a handy cutout to hold the "angle finder" pyramid and holds the plate perfectly still while sharpening due to its foam rubber bottom. Back to that angle finder pyramid. This was a pleasant little bonus. I have a few high end Japanese kitchen knives that I have traditionally sharpened with a Lansky sharpening system (the one with the the blade clamp and the skinny whetstones that go on the end of a metal rod). I decided to try sharpening my chef's knife with the Sharpal whetstone. This particular knife has a 20° angle, so that's the side I used on the pyramid. It was surprisingly easy to do this. I think I only made 10 passes on each side of the blade with the coarse grit, then the fine, then my stropping leather. That blade was easily the sharpest it has ever been. So, as a bonus, I now have a better, simpler way to sharpen my knives! I can't really comment on longevity yet since I've only had it for a few days, but so far, it looks like something that will last WAY beyond its 3 year warranty. If you're like me and you've been waiting on the fence to make the investment into diamond whetstones, no need to wait any longer. This is the set you want.
