Trend as a brand is unquestionably one of the best out there for diamond sharpening equipment, just be careful where you purchase the stone so you don't get a knock-off.

I have owned Trend stones for years for my hand sharpening needs, and I feel they work great and outlast regular friable stones by a considerable margin. All of mine have been purchased from Woodcraft. A couple years ago, a new one had issues with the electroplated abrasive wearing off after just a few uses, but Woodcraft immediately shipped me a new replacement and an RMA label when I called.

A lot of really bad reviews on this item. Perhaps many of the good ones are fake.

They don't stay flat, so you need a diamond flattening stone.

Sometimes I wonder if it's the good ones or bad ones that are fake.

The review numbers look good, yet the first reviews shown all make the product look cheap.

I was never comfortable with diamond anyway. Regular stones, in my case water stones, wear as they are used so you know the level of sharpening it consistent. Diamonds slowly wear down and become worse and worse. I don't like that dynamic. I don't believe diamond stones are pennywise, though my experience with them is very limited because of my belief.

Fix? why? Jeff Bezos's needs a third yacht and you're helping making that dream come true

Afterall he needs a tertiary support yacht for his secondary support yacht that runs behind his main yacht. Can't wait until the day we get carrier groups for billionaires fighting each other over the open ocean like that Kevin Costner movie water-world and then take it to the Mars Colony and space like the Gundam anime.

Depends on your skill, what you are sharpening, how you sharpen, and what you are looking for in an edge.

Extremely hard super steels do better on diamond. Nothing is harder. Working edges often benefit from the toothiness of edges made with diamonds. Diamonds are a simpler mobile solution with potentially less mess and bulk.

Further, buy two Shapton Pro or Shapton glass to get these two grits or similar and tell me how much money you just saved. Hint: You spent more.

Plus this can flatten your ceramic stone. So you might want to add a flattening solution to the cost of your ceramic stones.

Ceramic's only definitive win is with highly polished edges. But not everybody buys knifes to look at or has knives that will actually benefit from such an edge.

But Sharpton pro/Kuro or glass feel better than diamond stones. Also good luck using 300 grit to flatten stone.
