We have been selling these stones at the local Woodcraft I work at for a couple years. I've sold dozens of them and absolutely zero problems. It's nice to see someone else acknowledge the quality of these stones. They are better by far than Trend and better by a not insignificant amount than DMT, which is saying a lot as DMT makes great stones. I have been using four of these in my sharpening class for two years and have yet to even begin wearing one out. It's always the first diamond stone I recommend for someone starting out. or someone who just wants a great stone. We have problems keeping them in stock as they sell pretty much as soon as they come in. What you found with your one stone believe me translates to all of them. Sharpal recently came out with a 4" by 10" diamond flattening plate for waterstones that I have yet to try out, but expect it to be amazing. Don't know how they do it for the price, but I hope they keep it up.

I have put to practice the techniques you have tought on your channel and have given demo's on that same stone and have sold probably 50+ and not a single complaint. And thats saying a lot for a small town were everyone knowes each other. Lol i have hoped for years you would do a review of this stone. Thanks a million. 🎉🎉 I wish i could buy them directly from the manufacturer. I have been buying them off Amazon and woodcraft then resaleing them. If anyone has the contact information i would greatly appreciate it.

Apparently the larger stone is out of stock and for some reason they have the links such as they are. I was happy when I thought the 162N was priced at 45 bucks but alas, it's the smaller stone.

I don't have a need for another diamond bench stone right now, but I've been thinking about getting the double sided sharpening puck or diamond file from Sharpal and it's good to know they're able to make good double sided diamond abrasives. I really like the idea of their diamond file because it comes with a leather cover that can be used as a strop, I haven't found many other portable sharpeners with a strop. I'm sure you're spammed with requests to buy more things all the time, and I know you already spend a ton to test out all these things which I really appreciate, so I'm a little sorry to add to that, but I'd love to see your perspective on Atoma diamond stones. I've often seen them talked about as the highest quality diamond stones on various knife and woodworking forums, but almost never with any kind of objective inspection of the stone or the edge it leaves, mostly just how it feels to use.

As you know there is a war going on at my home and i have gone to the military service. Life can end abruptly here so i decided to try and ask. Can you please sell me one of your super knives, like the one you have shown chopping wood all day etc?

I'm looking to get into whittling and I kept seeing this sponsored by amazon but was skeptical. Thank you so much for your review!

I purchased the 6"x2.5" one recently for NOT sharpening knives... I use it to true up my trizact structured abrasive 2x72 belts. These belts have an insane amount of abrasive material to use, so much so that you would find yourself wearing the belt unevenly long before using all of the abrasives. The stone was the perfect size to stick to my surface grinding attachment to then grind off high spots on my belts to true them up. Not at all the intended purpose I know, but I did sharpen a couple knives with it first and was also impressed.

Never heard of those. Are they low grit only? I use a lot of Trizact, but only high grits, 600+. Always looking for high grit media with a better service life per dollar ratio. Eagle Abrasives is where I've ended up, but they're not cheap.

Trizact are commonly referred to as "gator belts" by 3m. They aren't cheap but offer very consistent scratch patterns throughout the whole belts life, especially if you can true them up as they wear. The "347FC" series are what I use.@@jdisdetermined

Thank you so much. I stumbled upon your channel and realized that I needed to really up my blade-sharpening, since I am an avid home cook. Just placed an order for this "unicorn". And yes, the photography is addictive. I think it's why I keep coming back.

I won't lie, I saw your other video about double sided diamond stones and since I owned the sharpal stone already I just assumed you were right since I didn't have a microscope to verify so I ended up just 4 days ago buying the dmt fine stone, I don't regret it but now I need to either find a use for it or find a buddy to give it to as a gift for a birthday.

Mine just came in the mail today. I couldn't be happier. It made sharpening my knives so much easier. Seriously, thank you.

Some of your recommendations are harder to get here in germany and I've had already picked out some alternatives to order at some point but as this is actually available for me I went for it immediately. Thanks for your work in research - the amazon afiliate-money is well deserved for that purchase🙏🏻
