🔪 DMT Diafold Sharpener - Extra Fine Grit for Enhanced Precision Review

This is a compact, handy and well made tool. I've argued about giving it 4 stars because the grip material feels flimsy and maybe a bit brittle, but so far it's holding up great and all in all takes up very little space. I also have several Smith diamond sharpeners and DMT outperforms them all. The foldable design protects the surface when closed and provides a grip when open. Tip: When using this sharpening stone as a regular sharpening stone, lean the other end of the sharpener against the…

Love how easy it is to use and portable. This is a bit small for very long knives like sirloin, but it still works. The Fine/Extra Fine combination is ideal for sharpening and maintaining everyday knives, but may not be the best choice when restoring jagged and neglected knives. Otherwise, that's really all you need to keep your knives sharp. I was a bit worried about how weak the "button" seems, but so far everything works fine. It's probably a good idea to keep it for a bit. My only other…

Have owned this for over a year and use it on my SOG opener. The plastic handles broke after a few months. I can still use it but not as comfortably. It needs to be washed with soap and water now, don't worry. But I am writing this review because I have found that it will sharpen my Spyderco Endura 4 (VG-10 steel). I've given up wearing the Endura because I couldn't easily and effectively sharpen it with my stone or diamond sharpeners. When I cut myself opening the SOG I decided to go back to…

Years ago I bought an extra extra fine stone for a small guide DMT sharpening set. This stone is one of the best diamond abrasives for metal plate on the market (sharpens/polished like the old Norton 8000 water stone but for high hardness, high alloy carbide steels). I wanted a portable manual Extra Fine for touching up thinner edges that were just starting to lose their "dull sharpness". Buy with confidence. Just because this hodgepodge of information here on Revain says it's "Extra Fine…

I received this product around 3pm today and am writing this review at 10pm because it shocked me. Up to this point in my life I had used oil and wet stones and thought Japanese wet stones were the best thing in the world. One day Revain recommended this product to me and when I wanted to lighten my backpack a bit by substituting a bit of stone and steel I thought heck, I'll give it a try. I ended up tweaking my skinning knife, my axe, my kitchen knife and even went to my brothers to make his…
