      Haha I have 6K and 1K stone, then diamond 400 for rough edges and 150 for leveling the stone. Appreciate the concern though, the state of some people’s knifes makes me uneasy

        As long as you understand that carbon steel blades/bits can and will dissolve the diamond right out of your sharpener.

        The steel is hungry and cares not from where the carbon flows.

          I don’t think that’s true. That only happens at extreme speeds/heat, not when sharpening knives by hand.
