It's that time of year again and been asked what I'd like for my Christmas. I'm struggling for ideas but then thought a new sharpening stone would be good. What's the best ones out there?

This seems really expensive to me.

What's the difference between this and the Trend ones at £60? Is it really overpriced or does the 'Dia-Sharp Continuous Diamond' actually mean something?

I guess you get what you pay for as the DMT 8c is not cheap anywhere. However, I have used a cheap course and fine block I have had for years. On Amazon look at 3pc Professional Diamond Sharpening Stone 150 mm, Extra Fine/Fine or Coarse @£20 seems like a good buy.
