Forcing a Patina on high Carbon steel knives
Forcing a Patina on high Carbon steel knives

DIAMOND PLATES
They allow quick removal of material for grinding out chips and changing the base bevel of plane irons and chisels.
Quick sharpening and material removal also in medium grit grades is another advantage.
Can be used for sharpening TC, HSS and PM steels, which are difficult or impossible to work using other types of stone.
The stones mostly keep their original shape, unlike other stones that wear with use and must be periodically re-flattened.
They can also be used as flattening blocks for Japanese water stones. We recommend the 400 grit plate for this application.
