Pros & Cons
Pros
Dmt 8 is all the stone one would need for sharpening. Base is sturdy and holds the stone securely.
This thing is awesome. As advertised. Nothing compares to a proper bench sized unit - like this one!
Big enough for chef knives, as well as small blades like paring knives. Works for everything from my hatchet to my becker campanion. The raised bench really helps to hold the blade at a proper angle.
It is super simple to use and is incredibly flat. Very easy to flip sides. This fits the bill and has worked out perfectly.
Great sharpener. Sharpens fast. It holds the sharpener tight. Great sharpening tool.
Cons
The stone is faulty. It has nicks and bumps all over and made ugly scratch marks on my knife. Very disappointing from this manufacturer.
Highlights

Fine ranking is a little more course than im used to but its a quality product
Its wide and long and feels of good quality
Finally got fed up with the setup and mess
I considered classic arkansas whetstone etc etc but ultimately decided to go “high tech” with the diamond abrasives
Shipping
Never have to worry about not being flat never have to tru it up and is fast cutting
Packaging/appearance
Takes down my grandfathers swedish frostsmora butcher knives from the 40s
I just use a little water as a lubricant

Was worried about the base a bit but no movement or rocking with a very heavy handforged tool

Just remember it needs to be broken in before you can expect the grits to be accurate
