Review: Exceptional - Just pretty much reprofiled an old kitchen knife with a 600 grit fine stone!! These stones are very very effective. Normally you'd need a 120 or 240. Ive been hand sharpening for a couple of years now with wetstones so am pretty experienced. This stone is exceptional and ideal for beginners. A 600 grit stone is normally a third stone before a 1000 and then 4000/6000 polish. However this 600 is way more effective than a 600 grit wetstone so the results are immediate and significant. All I can say is that they work a lot quicker than wetstones so take it easy with new or already sharp knives. Burr creation is profound so very easy to tell when youve apexed. Even old difficult to sharpen knives wont last two minutes with this thing, so glad I found it. I follow a guy on youtube who taught me how to sharpen, look him up. His youtube profile is OUTDOORS55. His name is Alex. He got me into DMT stones and gives great tutorials on every day sharpening using cost effective stones. No need for Japanese chosera stones at £200, get one of these american imports, sharpen from a fine stone and then strop to shaving sharpness!
Review: Super high quality - Great high quality stone that will take the chisel edge to the next level compared to a 1000 grit trend stone. I haven’t used water stones, as I prefer the fact that diamond doesn’t need levelled. I’m happy with how this stone cuts and how the blades perform. I’ll usually strop after it, but it isn’t required. It’s not cheap, but it is GOOD! And you’ll only cry once.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ DMT D8X 8-Inch Dia-Sharp Continuous Diamond 8000 grit extra extra fine
*by T***R on 7 November 2016*

used the 8000 grit extra extra fine a good few times and no problems so far,reports of some failing after little use seem to point to hit and miss quality,puts a nice polish on the edge of knives
