Diamond sharpening stones are sharpening stones coated in micro-diamonds. What’s inside the “stone” isn’t necessarily a chunk of rock. It could be metal or a composite stone manufactured mechanically. Diamond is one of the hardest substances on Earth. By coating a stone in diamond powder, it ensures you’ll be able to sharpen even the strongest blade, and the porous surface provides an escape route for filings that come off your blade. This keeps gunk from building up on the stone and hampering its effectiveness. DMT sharpening stones are some of the most popular of diamond sharpening stones.
