Hi Ken and Rick,

Thanks for your replies.

I had the same toughs that diamonds are obviously hard and should work.

When I sharpen knives I value the fact that I can easily progress from
DC -> DF  -> DE -> SJ -> paperwheel -> kangaroo strop with a result under 100 BESS.

Having the same diameter is something I really value,
but having to take care that I do not damage the diamond with that much pressure is something I really dislike.

Also I agree that the diamonds are not as aggressive as I had hoped.

I think I will for the shaping process get the BGM-100 Bench Grinding Mounting Set
and attach this a grinder for faster shaping and less likelihood of damaging the diamond wheels.
After the shaping process with the grinder I will continue the sharpening and polishing process with diamonds and japanese wheels.

Ricky

Hi

I have all three diamond wheels DC-250, DF-250 and DE-250 for a T8.
I also have the DBS-22.

I would like to know if there is a technical reason of acquiring the SB-250 for HSS or HM drills for example?
