Dia-Sharp - 8" x 3" Diamond Bench Stone Sharpener - Coarse
I've gotten these stones three times in the last ten years, and they always do amazing. The coarser grits cut wonderfully for about three years of daily use and the finer grits can last for five or more years. Honestly they could probably go much longer for the occasional user or someone that doesn't need peak performance all the time out of their stones. I kept the older stones and use them as lapping plates/ reference surfaces. They stay flat, are easy to clean, are the right size and rigidity, and are easily lubricated with diluted Windex. I have tried a few other diamond stone brands and they do not last as long as these ones or are not flat. I would have a very hard time switching to any other brand or sharpening material if this were ever discontinued. I don't usually give so much praise to a single brand but honestly I suspect people using other options simply haven't tried these yet. Oilstones are slow, gross, and lose flatness. Waterstones are fast but lose flatness faster. This is the best.

Dia-Sharp - 8" x 3" Diamond Bench Stone Sharpener - Coarse
I'll be going back to Woodcraft next week to exchange mine. There is a pit in the stone that I'm sure my carving gouges will find. The pit actaully has diamonds in it, so it means they coated a flawed plate and then didn't catch the flaw after the plating process. I would think you'd inspect the plates before diamond plating them as it would be a waste of plating to have it come back due to a basic flaw in the plate. After the plating, this pit was very obvious. DMT make some great stones, but their quality control department is non existent or they think most customers don't care. In the past I've bought a rusty DMT plate and an extra fine that was covered with much larger diamonds sporadically. I try to buy American when I can, but I've used the Trend made in China and the M Power made in England and had no QA issues with either. I'm sure the folks at my local store will make it right, but I'm some time and gas money. Next time I will open the package in the store before plunking down the money. Three stars because I'm sure it will be a good stone, once I get a good stone.
