A diamond plate is a steel plate sometimes with a plastic or resin base. The plate is coated with diamond grit, an abrasive that will grind material from the blade. The plate may have a series of holes cut in it which are designed to capture the swarf that is cast off as grinding takes place.
Diamond plates are available in various plate sizes (from credit card to bench plate size) and grades of grit. A coarser grit is used to remove larger amounts of metal more rapidly, such as when forming an edge or restoring an edge which is damaged. A finer grit is used to remove the scratches of larger grits and to refine an edge. Two-sided plates exist where each side is covered by a different grit.
Unlike stones which can become rounded—decreasing their effectiveness—diamond plates remain flat. They do not require the use of a lubricant.
Diamond plates, being made from diamond—even though of industrial grade—tend to be more expensive than stones.
