The E8DBS is an 8" x 3" (203 x 75mm) dual-grit 1000/300 diamond bench stone engineered for precision woodworking and professional edge refinement.

Built around a precision-ground steel substrate (flat to ±0.005"), this dual-grit diamond plate delivers fast material removal on the 300 grit side and controlled finishing on the 1000 grit side. The 8 inch by 3 inch format provides a stable reference surface suitable for chisels, plane irons (plane blades) and other precision cutting tools.

For those seeking a complete sharpening system including lapping fluid, bench mat and cleaning accessories, see the JB8DBSKIT 1000 grit diamond sharpening stone kit.


Why choose this 1000 grit diamond bench stone?

Fine sharpening requires flatness, consistency and control. The 1000 grit surface features a continuous diamond coating designed to prevent snagging on fine edges or pointed tools, making it ideal for finishing cuts and edge refinement.

The 300 grit side incorporates clearance channels to remove swarf quickly, allowing you to reshape edges before progressing through finer grits. For heavier repairs or chipped edges, begin with the 300 grit side before refining further.

Together, this dual-grit combination provides a practical two-stage sharpening progression in one professional plate.

Unlike traditional water stones, this diamond bench sharpening stone requires no soaking and no flattening, saving time while maintaining dependable performance.

Built for professional and serious woodworking use, it delivers the durability and flatness required for high-precision results.


What Is This 1000/300 Diamond Bench Stone Used For?

The 300 grit surface enables efficient edge restoration, bevel correction and removal of minor chips.

The 1000 grit surface is designed for controlled refinement and finishing, producing a clean, sharp working edge suitable for fine woodworking tasks.

This dual-grit configuration provides a practical two-stage sharpening progression within a single professional diamond plate.
