Hi,
I was just at my local dealer and saw that they have a set of sleeves for the Sharpmaker stones that are triangular and open along the back edge. They appear a bit concave in shape and are said to be diamond coated. Does anyone have these? Do they work well and last quite well?
Thanks, Jeff/1911.
Diamond sleeves...an older style
Jeff,
These are the old syle sleeves. IIRC they were discontinued because the diamonds wouldn't stay on.
I have a set that I haven't used a lot. They seem to work just fine, but I don't know how long they will last.
They were sold for use with the 203 sharpener and may be a little tight on the stones of the 204.
I think that you would be better off getting the current diamond stones.
