Sharpening - Two Sided Diamond Plate from Hewlett MED/FINE

If I were starting over, and buying a single tool to sharpen my knives, this is what I would get. It has a medium (600) surface on one side and a fine (1800) surface on the other. It's 4" long, 1 1/4" wide, and less than 1/16" thick (.055"). The plate and it's plastic sleeve weigh about 1 1/4 ounces. Made in the USA.

Also Great for sharpening scissors!

If I were going to add anything, I'd get something for a super fine finish such as the AC-168 or strop.  I often glue a strip of 9 micron polishing film to the Plastic sleeve. We do have some of this left, If you would like one, Please just write a note in order and we will toss a strip in.
