Advantages Of The Diafold Knife Sharpener
There are several benefits to using this sharpening device, starting with its portability. This means you can easily carry it with you wherever you go.
Enclosed Design: This means that when not in use, this sharpener closes up which protects the diamond surface on both sides. This means fewer cleanings and more use from this remarkable device.
Easy to Use: Simply open it up and start sharpening on the coarse side, then the fine side to get the best edges. It only takes a few moments to learn and get the hang of using it.
No Oil: You do not need to purchase oil to use the sharpener as it can be used when dry. However, you may use water if you desire to make the sharpening easier.
This could well be the best knife sharpener out there but keep in mind that this knife sharpener will not sharpen very small or pointed tools, only those that have edges to be sharpened.

Get the Most out of DMT Knife Sharpeners
There is a ‘break-in’ period for your diamond stone. Initially, it will feel especially rough but will smooth over time without impacting performance. Let the diamonds do the work; just light strokes with the edge to sharpen, same number of strokes each side. Approximately 5 or 6 strokes per side (depending upon condition of edge) compared to 30 strokes per side on a conventional stone, saving time and extending the life of the knife or tool. Start with a coarser grit for damaged or dull edges and work to finer grits. The work the edge is to do will help you determine the grit needed: Rough work, end with coarse grit (cutting cardboard); finer work, work through finer grits (food preparation).
Verdict
The versatility of the lightweight DMT FWFC Diafold Knife Sharpener makes it the best knife sharpener of its type on the market today. It separates itself from other knife sharpeners thanks to its durable construction, lightweight materials, and unique double-sided features that make it the knife sharpener to purchase for your home.
