Pros & Cons

Pros

This takes a lot of the effort out of hand planning, and makes using your chisel a lot easier. Great for putting the chrome like polish onto your knives. My only concern with using this is that i have had a habit of springing leaks in my fingers brush... Read More

This one completes my sharpening system based on rob cosman's recommendations. It's nice and wide which makes sharpening a 2 wide plane iron really easy. I still need to learn how to use it bette.

I got one of these finally, it is a beast on the plane blades, mirrored edges in about 10 strokes. It leaves a mirror finish razor sharp plane blade. The surface finish left behind is silky smooth with a slightly glossy sheen.

Cons

I'm guessing it's a matter of user error on my part, have decided to hold onto the stone, and work with it to see if i can improve my experience by trying out some different techniques. It is also extremely fragile. Won't buy another one again.

Quality

I was very pleased with the edge

He uses diamond stones to shape and hone then finishes with the shapton 16000

The reason for this is that they tweaked the grit size with the 16k

Buy it if you got the cash you wont be disappointed

Price

Also it was a very good price

Wow i hope this lasts at this price

Packaging/appearance

Nice and flat sexy packaging and does a great job to finish off right before final hone on a leather strop

My routine usually goes trend diamond stone to flatten the shapton 6000 and 16000 stones

So i turned it loose on the shapton 16000 and ive achieved a level of sharpness thats considerably more keen than anything ive ... Read More

I go from 1200 diamond for primary right to the shapton for the micro bevel
