issue with a Venev diamond matrix 80 grit not cutting as well as diamond 120 plate?
Venev Orion Series Diamond [6" x 1"]
Any one have an issue with a Venev diamond matrix 80 grit not cutting as well as diamond 120 plate? I thought my knife blades were crazy hard, but when I tried the 120 grit diamond plate, it cute a new edge as I thought the $90 80 matrix stone would.
I cleaned the matrix stone with dish soap and a stiff brush, it was better, but not like an 80 grit diamond plate.
If there is not a problem, I'm disappointed in the expensive stones.

Any diamond plated stone will cut much more aggressively than a resin or bonded type stone but it will not leave the same quality of a fine edge. The diamonds protrude above the plate surface on a plated stone, so they are much more aggressive and will remove metal faster. This is a positive when you need to remove metal fast, but it is very aggressive on the blade and will leave micro damage.
Diamond plates are great for new bevel setting and damage repair on a blade, but once the hard work is done, it is far better to use a resin or bonded type stone for finishing it off and for all future sharpening on that knife.
