Description

Venev Bonded Diamonds are used for sharpening knives on Hapstone and Edge Pro knife sharpeners. Diamond sharpening stones offer excellent performance in sharpening knives of any steel.

Venev Diamonds consist of a 3mm-thick diamond-bearing plate on an Edge Pro aluminum base. The diamond-bearing plate contains evenly distributed diamond grains with resin bonding. The manufacture of bonded diamonds is more complex than for coated diamonds. Bonded diamonds provide better feedback and give the sharpening stone a much longer lifespan.

The OCB version of Venev Diamonds utilizes a brand-new yellow binder with no abrasive particles in the composition. OCB is available in fine grits only and offers better scratch-free sharpening results.

All Venev diamonds use FEPA-F grit classification. Orion series is available in 7 grits from F60 to F1200. F60 to F240 utilize legacy binder with 100% diamond concentration. F400 to F1200 utilize OCB binder with 25% or 100% diamond concentration. 25% diamond concentration is better for scratch-free sharpening. 100% diamond concentration is better for high performance.

How to use

Venev Diamonds are recommended to be used with water as a lubricant for the best feedback. The diamond does not absorb water. Splash water on the stone's surface. Dry usage is an acceptable practice, although it results in faster wearing and speeds up stone loading.

Customer Reviews

DAM M.

EXCELLENT SET OF STONES, THEY ARE FLAT WITH NO DEFECTS. I SHARPENED 8 KNIVES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF METALS, 1095 / AUS 8 / 14C28N, & SOME REAL HARD STEEL, THEY ALL PERFOMRED GREAT. THE SCRATCH PATTERN IS REALLY NICE AS U GET UP TO THE FINER STONES, THE COARSE STONES WILL TAKE OFF ALOT OF MATERIAL, IF U ARE NOT CAREFUL!! OVERALL, REALLY HAPPY WITH THE PURCHASE!! WILL BUY AGAIN!!!!

Edward M.

ITS MY FAULT THINKING MORE MONEY AND A BIGGER NAME IN STONES WOULD EQUAL QUALITY! by the time I used the stones it was past the return window AND I USED THEM to only find the 400/509 dollar stones NOT FLAT, BENT LIKE A RAINBOW.... the metal plate and the resin bonding..... on new to purchasing quality stones, but this six hundred dollars was a lesson learned.

Darrin

Customer service was very helpful in helping me. Choose this set of stones that were right for me. I am very happy with this set. They work great and will last a long time. Very satisfied.

Jim B.

I really, really like these stones. I have tried different stone sets that are more expensive, and a few cheaper ones, these fit me best. While I give the stones a five star rating, I also have to give Gritomatic five stars. Fast shipping, knowledgeable staff, great prices, and very helpful with anything you may have questions about. I made the mistake of buying somewhere else once. Once. Don't make my mistake, buy from Gritomatic where you can ask questions and they will help you out without selling you stuff you don't need. Great and honest people.

Tom L.

I love the way these stones cut and the consistency in scratch pattern. I’m using them on a TSProf KO3 and on a stone holder for freehand sharpening of mostly powder steels.

John R.

The Stone feel and look nice and probably are great but they are All bowed and can not get a response to return

William L.

Shipping was really fast, that was great. They made fast work of three dull knives. I believe the set will last me a long time. Would I recommend them. Yes

Carlos A.

By far, best stones I’ve ever used. Worth every penny.

Jonathan W.

These stones work great. Far better than what I had been using. The also can produce that mirror edge. I would definitely recommend.

Don T.

I've used quite a few diamond stones (both resin bonded and electroplated) over the years and these Venev Orion stones are at the top of the food chain. The set of six are all within .010" total of each other in thickness, which makes it very ice when going from one stone to the next in a guided sharpener like the Hapstone RS or R2. No need to adjust for a changing angle. The range from 80 grit to 1200 grit (FEPA) is enough to go from reprofiling a knife to a near mirror edge. So far I've sharpened about six or seven knives and after rechecking the thickness of the stones there is no measurable difference. Not that I expected any considering the quality of these stones, but it's nice to be proven. I would think this set will last decades of heavy use, with only very very occasional resurfacing other than a cleaning stone once in a while. Of course, the finer grits (800 and 1200) glaze slightly in use, but nothing that seems to affect the performance, and a few seconds with a Nagura cleaning stone and t's back to pristine condition. Highly recommended!

Rem W.

Venev stones cut fast, smooth out coarser stone marks, and are easy to clean. Their stone progression is appropriate for any steel.

John Hopkins

Great set of stones Nice stones

Mike Buglion

Venev Orion These Stones are amazing, blew my mind how good they are. I use the 6” on my k03 and they don’t even compare to the tsprof stones. The 2nd video is just stones no strop. Gritomatic shipped out fast I already have a bunch of $hit in my cart ready for my next order

What is the difference between Rigel and Sirius..?

Is it that the OCB for the Rigel finer grit stones are %25 diamond concentration providing more of a scratch free sharpen than Sirius which it 100%..?

Follow

⚙️Leading Edge • 2 years ago

The Rigel set is not available any more, only the Sirius set. The Rigel set had a lower % of diamond in the bond of the finer grit stones. The higher % loading of the Sirius set works faster and can also provide the same scratch pattern as the lower % Rigel set by just doing lighter and fewer strokes. It effectively does the same job in less time.

What is best method to lap venev orion stones prior to 1st use?

Follow

⚙️Leading Edge • 3 years ago

The new generation Venev stones come ready to use, and don't actually require extensive lapping. They feel slightly coarse to the touch when new, but this top laye is quickly removed within a few minutes of sharpening.

If you prefer to condition them before use, then I suggest using a cleaning / conditioning stone to rub it over the surface of the Venev stones under running water for a quick conditioning before use. One of these cleaning / conditioning stones are also great for cleaning your Venev stones if they load up during extensive use, or if you simply want to clean them after use.

We have a Bodrid stone and a Breeze semi-natural Nagura stone that both work well for this purpose. There are also other products available online (like the small "King Nagura" 8k stone) that also work well for this purpose. The grit of the cleaning / conditioning stone is not overly relevant, so you can use the same Nagura stone to clean / condition all your Venev stones.
