Description of DMT W6EP 6-Inch Diamond Tabletop Whetstone, Extra Fine Grit
DMT Diamond Whetstone Bench Model Extra Fine Micron sized monocrystalline diamonds are securely bonded in nickel that is electroplated to precision ground steel. An injection molded polycarbonate base increases the structural rigidity needed to maintain a flat sharpening surface. The innovative pattern of the recessed dots is key to the DMT difference. By providing a space into which metal fines produced from sharpening can be cleared the dots keep the diamond surface clean for fast and efficient hone of all materials. Ideal for knife and general tool sharpening. Mfg No: W6EP Manufacturer: DMT Warranty: Warranted against defects in material and manufacture. Exclusive remedy: replacement of defective product. Abuse or neglect is not covered.This all-purpose whetstone sharpens and hones a variety of household tools and equipment, maintaining the accessories for the hobbies of just about everyone in the house. Its most common use is for sharpening kitchen cutlery and scissors; however, this whetstone also works on chisels, planes, masonry drills, and other shop tools; garden tools; ice skates; climbing equipment; ski edges; fishhooks; ceramic; stone; and glass. The whetstone is durably and uniquely constructed of perforated steel molded into a plastic base. The surface features minute pieces of diamond, the hardest known material for sharpening, embedded into a nickel plate, to achieve an extremely sharp edge. The bonded diamonds are arranged around an innovative pattern of plastic discs and the combination of these two materials greatly reduces sharpening time and resists wearing over time.
This particular whetstone is encrusted with an extra-fine diamond grit of 1,200 mesh, which is the least abrasive and better suited for polishing an edge after a few strokes on a coarser grit. The surface should be moistened before sharpening and the blade should be passed over the whetstone with light pressure at a 20-degree angle to get the proper edge without dulling it. After sharpening, the whetstone may simply be wiped off and its nonporous properties prevent water from seeping below the surface.
This whetstone measures 6 by 2 by 3/4 inches and has rubber safety feet underneath it to prevent sliding during sharpening. DMT generously vows to replace any product found to be defective free of charge. --Cristina Vaamonde
