Buying Guide: Choosing a DMT Diamond Sharpener
Pocket and Folding Sharpeners
Credit card sized Dia-Sharp pocket sharpeners are easy to take anywhere, and one model comes in a color-coded carry case. Mini-Sharp folding sharpeners are lightweight and ultra portable, with a folding handle that protects the stone when not in use and a key chain swivel ring. Mini-Sharp models can be used dry or with water, so no oil is needed.
Double-Sided and Bench Stones
Diafold double-sided sharpeners combine two diamond stones in one compact unit, with two grits for a two-stage edge. The 6 in. Dia-Sharp and whetstone models offer a larger surface for knives and fine tools, and they include non-skid rubber feet or can be bench mounted.
Serrated Knife Sharpener
The Diafold serrated knife sharpener is made for serrated blades and is sold in a coarse grit in a 4 in. size. It removes only a minimal amount of material from the blade, which helps extend the life of your cutlery.
