DMD Diamond Sharpening Stone Holder Set with Simple Adjustment Screws Holds the Stone Securely with Diomand Knife Sharpener Stones 丨 Durable Quality and Exquisite Design

Quality item, fully adjustable--one reviewer mentioned putting a block of wood in to hold the unit in place but this just isn't necessary. You can move the center block holders but need to understand that you move one set of blocks off the thicker rails and then use the adjustment screws to insure the height (per design). This wasn't well explained in the directions. It holds a variety of length and width. very stable to use.

I'm am so impressed with this stone holder / sink bridge. It appears that there are two versions of this being sold... one with stainless and plastic parts and this one with stainless and aluminum parts. The one with plastic parts had mix reviews and this one had no reviews but I decided to take a chance and I am so glad I did. This bridge feel so well made. The machining on the aluminum is clean and precise and everything is smooth and fits together snuggly. It has a nice weight to it and feels like it's going to last a long time. It fits perfectly on my Cambro 12183CW container and holds the Whetstones securely. I will update this review if I run into any problems.

The thing is great, but It has a few small problems...I use a 4 inch food container instead of a sink for my uses. I normally fill the tub about 2 inches high. Then place the bridge more on the left side so when I need more water my right hand can easily scope up water when needed. But when using this set up I noticed two problems.1st - The middle screws don't do anything. I initially thought they would clamp the holder to the 2nd sliding bar, but its just there for aesthetics.This means that when you sharpen for a while the motion of going up and down a whet stone causes the sliders to slowly compress the bridge into a shorter one. I fixed this issue by rotating the bridge 180 degrees, andmeasuring the distance and placing a small wooden block in the gap so it would stop having that problem.2nd - In-between the whetstone holder is a support system for the middle for the stone. But it's a bit shorter than the ones holding the edges of the block.I was able to fix this by placing one of the 4 silicone pads in the box and placed it on top of the support.If they used a bit more better design they could of made it the best available bridge out of the box available

The holder itself is solid, well weighted, and perfectly sized. The sharpening stone that comes with it, is surprisingly good too. So, the cost vs. quality is far better than you are paying for. The stone may not be the best you can get, but it's FAR from the worst. I'm able to put a great edge on my chisels and a flat polished edge on a card scraper. Well worth the purchase.

I use sharpening stones to sharpen large kitchen knives. This holds my stones over the sink so I can have the faucet drip on them constantly to keep them clean. It is very sturdy and extends really far. If you use stones then you are going to want this. No brainer purchase.

I have four DMT products that I spent around $250 on, this DMD and stone holder I have to admit that for the money and value of this product it is well worth it I just received it and broke it in but it’s doing a heckuva job. I throw axes and didn’t want to take an $80 DMT in my bag to get messed up and with the 400 and 1000 grit, this ones a keeper

This sharpening stone was exactly as advertised. I’ve used it to sharpen my carving chisels and knifes. The 400 grit side is good for reestablishing the edge shape very quickly. The 1000 grit is for fine tuning the edge and preparing for stropping stage. The stone quality seems pretty sturdy. The base is very stable and holds the stone well. Good value and the price was right. Seems to wear well and still works the same after sharping a dozen new chisels and six knifes.

I would have preferred the Silicon to be attached to the clamping heads and to the feet of the unit to help secure the sharpening stone and prevent the clamping mechanism for moving. The four Silicon pads it comes with seem to be good quality but you still have to position them and maintain the clapping mechanism on top of them and I'm not sure How to use a silicone pads to hold in the stones. Even pressing hard and tightening up the clamps the stone seems to be easily moved inside the clamps without any silicone pads. Otherwise the unit seems to be solidly made.
