Atoma Diamond Sharpener Medium - #400

stop being silly and just buy one....wide and flat and sharp....use this then a 1000 grit stone then a 8-15,0000 grit stone....sharp as you would like... my hand plane sharpened with this plate will cut a shaving less than 1,000th of an inch without any more honing ...if you are a general builder hanging doors and fitting skirting boards this plate is all you need ....

This I think is a great sharpening plate, I used to remove the initial covering on a chisels flat side and to get the plate primed for use - I really like it, expensive but worth it

does a great job of flattening water stones and having the larger size really helps in with that too. This is my main use for it but it is also a fast cutting plate for grinding out chips in blades and other rougher tasks before moving up to something like a 1000 grit stone to start to refine the edge.

Performance of the stone is just amazing. Product quality is just perfect. Surface of the stone is spotless. I can't believe how much time I've waisted trying to sharpen knives with more common cheap stones....

Top banana of sharpening stones. Pricey but worth it!! Never had chisels and planes so sharp. Well worth buying an Atoma flattening diamond blade to keep your waterstones perfectly flat. I use 1000, 5000 & 12000 grit Shapton Waterstones with this Atoma 400 grit diamond blade. Expensive method but you get perfect super sharp stubborn end grain cutting edges to your tools.

It’s taken me forever but my razor sharpening technique is improving. I haven’t been able to get a decent edge without using this to flatten the stones first.

Really really good at flattening shapton glass stones! Highly recommend

Great
