About Trend DWS/CP8/FC Classic Pro Double-Sided Diamond Sharpening Stone, Fine/Coarse, 8 x 3 inch
Overall Feedback:
83% positive
69% found it versatile
I purchased the 180/600 combination stone for establishing a bevel and/or flattening chisel and plane iron backs. It exceeded my expectations and cuts very fast. I compared it with my Shapton stones.
I have used the Trend plate for flattening the backs of bench chisels and plane irons, which shows the versatility of the sharpening-stone.
68% highlighted the size and dimensions, but 32% didn't.
I measured the flatness of the sharpening stone using a starett thickness gauge and straight engineering square. The stone has a slight curve of 0.009" on the 1000 grit side, but the 300 grit side is completely flat.
70% were highly impressed by the material composition, but 30% raised concerns
After the first use, the industrial diamond material started peeling off and there were gouges on the stone.
72% were satisfied with the grit size, but 28% faced issues
The deviation is 25x as much as advertised and it is not suitable for flattening the back of a chisel or lapping a whetstone.
The 1000 grit side has waves and leaves deep scratches, which is unexpected. The scratches are spread out like there is contact with 4 or 5 high chunks that don't wear off.
67% found it easy to use, but 33% faced problems
The Diamond Bench Stone is easy to use and gives incredible results with minimum effort.
I found that the surface loads up faster and requires constant cleaning.
73% appreciated the durability
I have found that the Trend plate is the fastest cutting plate I have used. It is also double-sided, making it less heavy and more durable. Overall, the Trend plate is easy to use.
