"Atoma Economy" by Tsuboman is the economical choice for diamond sharpening plates. Unlike whetstones and other ceramic sharpening stones, a diamond plate will not wear down or concave over time. You also don't need water to sharpen your knives. Atoma will remove steel very quickly, and the plate will never clog because it is made using a special patented dispersion technique. You can even use it to flatten sharpening stones! Use this Medium Grit #1200 plate to fix minor chips and to recreate an edge on your blade. Atoma #1200 is ideal Diamond plate for quicker sharpening and/or easy chips removal.

The Atoma 1200 diamond plate is suitable for flattening stones as coarse as 2000 up to 16000 grit. It does not cease to be effective above 8000 grit, however the large diamond particles will put large scratches in the stone which will be more noticeable the harder and finer the stone is. It may be used with finer grit stones in conjunction with a synthetic nagura in order to condition the surface after flattening. It's worth noting that this is just a suggestion. We have used the Atoma 1200 grit to flatten up to the Shapton Glass 30k stone and had no issues aside from the surface having a visible scratch pattern.
