XARILK 6 PCS Diamond Knife Sharpening Stones Set, Diamond Plates Kit for XARI...

The XARILK 6-Piece Diamond Knife Sharpening Stones Set is a well-made, entry-level set that performs exactly as expected. The stones are highly durable and retain their cutting efficiency over time. I noticed only slight contamination with lower grits on the stones under a microscope, but it hasn’t affected performance for everyday sharpening tasks after a very short break-in period. The aluminum base is solid and convenient, making sharpening more stable and consistent. I’ve been extremely impressed with all XARILK products, and this set delivers excellent value, longevity, and quality for anyone looking to sharpen knives efficiently.

For what this costs it's a steal and it sharpens easily and accurately. Well made. I recommend you screw it to a board than clamp the board to the counter, table or bench. But I've used many different systems and this is by far the best, ignoring the $900 systems that is.

The kit that adds 6 more diamo d plate are not the same quality as one come withrhe sharpener. Rhey are Not aluminum backed. They are plastic backed and bit flimsy. The sharpener works well. I reco.me d the sharpener, but do not buy the 6 additional diamond inserts. Only other company is that the hole where the sharpener rod go through get loosened often if you use even a bit of force. I couldnot tighten that down enough to keep that in place.

Great, secure way of sharpening. Easy to change the blocks for your sharpening preference. Would definitely recommend this sharpener.

Work very well. Seem to hold up so far.

Overall the quality seemed ok, but the 2000 grit stone had a defect in the form of a large burr that makes it unusable. If you buy these, inspect them carefully before using them on knives of any value.

These are excellent diamond plates for a fixed system and priced very well. I have checked the stones under a microscope and the grit contamination is minimal, the diamond is bonded in the nickel electroplating very nicely so these should last a fair while. The cut quickly with a nice concentration of nice and sharp diamond. These will work very well for sharpeners that are just getting in to sharpeming and looking for a good performing set of diamond plates for little money. The size is perfect for your 6x1 inch stone systems and the ease of use with diamond plates is great as you can even use these dry. The thickness from plate it plate is within 8 thousandths of an inch so they are all close enough in height that you won't have to worry about different thickness stones changing your sharpening angle. Overall a great value for 18 dollars shipped on prime!

work pretty good.. Hopefully the plastic bases won't warp and the diamonds will last a while. I sharpened a few knives and stopped using them because the Xarlik system is just not that great.
