Diamond Sharpening Plate #220 for WORK STUFF Work Sharp Precision Adj — grit 220

WORK STUFF Diamond Sharpening Plate #220 for Work Sharp Precision Adj — grit 220 is a replacement diamond plate designed to fit the Work Sharp Precision Adj system. The plate delivers a flat, wear-resistant abrasive surface that removes metal efficiently while maintaining a consistent plane for restoring bevels, removing burrs and refining edge geometry on knives, chisels and other cutting tools. It is intended for workshop and home sharpening setups where controlled material removal and predictable results are required.

Advantages

The diamond surface provides fast, even metal removal and resists glazing or clogging, which keeps the abrasive action consistent across the full plate. Its rigid backing maintains flatness under light to moderate pressure, ensuring uniform contact with the workpiece. Designed for compatibility with the Work Sharp Precision Adj system, the plate is easy to replace and positions accurately to preserve the established sharpening angle. The medium 220 grit balances rapid stock removal with the ability to create a defined bevel ready for subsequent finer grits.

Suitable for

• Restoring damaged or rolled bevels on knives
• Removing burrs after grinding or heavy use
• Shaping and reprofiling chisels and plane irons
• Preparing edges before progression to finer abrasives

Key specifications

• Abrasive type: industrial diamond surface
• Grit: 220 (medium/coarse, for stock removal and bevel shaping)
• Backing: rigid flat plate for stable contact
• Compatibility: designed for Work Sharp Precision Adj sharpening system
• Intended use: knives, chisels, plane blades and similar cutting tools

How to use

Install the diamond plate into the Work Sharp Precision Adj according to the system instructions, ensuring secure seating and alignment with the chosen angle setting. Use light to moderate, even pressure and move the edge across the plate with consistent strokes, checking the bevel frequently. For heavily damaged edges begin with controlled passes and increase the number of strokes until the desired bevel geometry is reestablished. After using the 220 grit plate, clean the plate surface and proceed to finer grits or strops to refine and polish the edge as required.

Usage recommendations

For best results, keep the plate free of metal swarf by periodically wiping with a dry cloth or a soft brush; avoid aggressive solvents that can affect the backing. Use consistent angle control on the Work Sharp Precision Adj and progress to higher grits for finishing steps to achieve the desired sharpness and edge refinement.
