An important step to the success of any woodworking project is to begin with sharp tools. DMT® Diamond Sharpeners are well known to woodworkers for their remarkable sharpening speed, precision flatness and ease of use. Some of the factors that contribute to the sharpening efficiency of DMT® products are:

1. Precisely sized micron Monocrystalline diamond. The single crystal super abrasive provides durability and toughness. It is most effective on the new harder tool steels.

2. The unique interrupted surface of recessed polka dots collects and removes the metal fines from the tool edge during the sharpening process. This feature keeps the DMT diamond-sharpening surface performing, making your sharpening task that much faster.

3. The flatness of the substrate matches the flatness of ground steel plates - a precision standard not attained by other manufacturers or sharpeners.
