DMT diamond sharpening stones
I have found that the 1200 grit diamond stone is an excellent
stone for sharpening rougher tools. I then move to the 8000 grit diamond stone
for the final sharpening. The 8000 grit has proven to be aggressive enough to
put a final edge on the tool, while at the same time creates a mirror finish.
