A pretty good Diamond flattening plate
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2016 4:01 pm
I recently took a chance on a house-brand diamond plate from Chef Knives to Go, which is nominally 400
grit on one side and 1000 on the other. If the one I got is representative, then I'm impressed. It's quite
flat and cuts well, though it's *not* a coarse material-hogger. It does have a grid pattern to help with the
sticking issue too, but it's so shallow that I'm not sure it helps. For $35 it seems like a bargain though, especially if they're all this flat. I have no financial interest in CKTG, et c.
One caveat: the plate is listed as being 8" by 2.75", but the one I received is 7.8" by 2.5".
