The **DMT Small Diamond Cone** is a small, conical diamond-coated sharpening steel to sharpen serrated knives and knives with a curved blade. Think of bread knives, spoon knives, blister knives and much more. The sharpening steel has a tapered diameter from 3 to 9 mm.

## Grain size DMT Small Diamond Cone

The sharpening steel has a grain size of 25 micron. This corresponds with a Japanese sharpening stone of approx. J500 Japanese grit. This grain size provides you with quick results and a very sharp edge. The sharpening steel is enhanced with a layer of monocrystalline, synthetic diamonds. Monocrystalline means that each diamond is comprised of one crystal. Unlike polycrystalline diamonds, monocrystalline diamond does not wear out as fast. As such it is great for a sharpening steel! 

## How to use DMT Small Diamond Cone

It's also good to know that a diamond-coated sharpening steel needs to be pre-sharpened. At first it might feel coarse, but this will become less after using the steel a couple times, after which it will have its desired effect.

The material that gives the sharpening stone its abrasive effect. Diamond, ceramics (e.g. aluminium oxide or silicon carbide) or the materials in a natural stone. Read [more about the advantages and disadvantages of these materials](/en/ct/sharpening-stone-materials-which-are-the-best.htm).

Abrasive

stone_binder

The agent that brings all the abrasive particles in a sharpening stone together. The cohesive agent usually consists of natural products, such as cellulose, wax, clay and even magnesium, or synthetic products such as: polyacrylates, polyvinyl alcohol or various synthetic resins. The cohesive agent itself usually has no abrasive effect.
