ITS diamond stones

[Harbourwoodwork]

Has anybody tried the 8"x3" diamond sharpening stones from ITS £14.99 ?seem's like a good price,my old Ezilap is getting a bit tired but its done over 15 year's

 

[big-all]

good price compared to most others
rutland £66
tooled up £72
its £15
probably a tempter sho youll buy from the end off year sale

yeah does look good for that price,but is it a copy???

i bought 1 of those faithful combination stone set.ok for a bit but over time has started to fail.
and yet the 2 small dmt butterfly diamond stones i have had for years are still going strong.
even still use my Indian stone mind you thats getting tired.

can you flatten these stones as mine has a curve on it now???

Yeah a young lad from your neck of the woods ,that worked with me for a while bought on of those diamond combi jobs,nowt to wright home about,same format as DMT but no where near the same stock removal a bit short of diamonds
Istill have my original Norton too a classic eh.
I did flat a japanese stone on a paving slab with sand as agrigate but they have a very soft bond but its got to be worth a go kill or cure.
