Smith's 3001 Diamond Sharpening Steel
Smith's 3001 10" diamond sharpening steel is the world's first interrupted surface diamond sharpening steel.  The unique patented interruptions speed sharpening by collecting the micro bits of metal that come off the knife edge during sharpening and allow the higher diamond abrasive surface to remain clear and efficient.  A fine grade real monocrystalline diamond is bonded in a nickel plate over the oval shape of the stee to produce a long-lasting surface that will produce a razor sharp edge on the toughest of stainless steels.  A comfortable soft-grip handle and oversized safety hand guard are features not seen on any other sharpening steel.  A convenient hang-up ring is added for easy storage. For more than 100 years Smith's has been in the knife and tool sharpening business. We pride ourselves on our industry reputation as The Edge Experts and today offer a full line of easy-to-use sharpeners from all five major sharpening categories: 100% Natural Arkansas Stones, Diamonds, Ceramics, Bonded Abrasives and Carbides.  Smith's offers its customers the best performing sharpeners in the category at the best price.
