Lookout for the cheapo ones from the likes of Lidl and Aldi. They are pretty good for rough touch ups of your sharps. A DC4 would be another good investment and finish with a strop.

I tend to only use diamond stones for big jobs as most are too abrasive. I prefer cermanic stones.

I'm a fan of the Aldi four sided blocks too. Not the flat plates, they warp.

I've got a few DMT's, the bench whetstones and diafolds. I think they are excellent, but overpriced and none have lasted as long as I'd like.
