Description

Diamond Compound is a very effective method of honing and polishing the cutting edge of the knife. Diamond is the hardest commercially available substance on Earth. Diamond Compound consists of synthetic diamond powder.

Lip Balm Tube is the easiest way of applying the paste to the strop surface (in comparison with jar, syringe or squeeze tube).

Diamond Compound can be used with any strop made of smooth or coarse leather, balsa or felt. Smooth leather is best strop material for Diamond Compound.

You will not be able to fully remove the compound after applying it to the strop. If you want to use your strop both with and without compound, you must, therefore, keep one side clean. If you want to switch between one compound and another, consider buying an extra strop.

Compound residue accumulates in the leather during stropping. If stropping performance gets worse, remove the residue with a knife spine or special tool, and apply the fresh compound.

Customer Reviews

GORDON H.

This product is very easy to apply. Like a big tube of chapstick that helps when stroping.

Timothy O.

Seems to work fine after finding application method on Youtube. All writing on tube is in Russian which I can't read. First try left soft coating on strop which deposited itself on my blade. Instruction from video said to melt with heat gun /hair dryer. Bingo! I can now feel the drag and scratches are going away. Only 4 for lack of application advise. Otherwise, great stuff.

Brandon F.

Great diamond compound for the money and it's super easy to apply

Cory P.

Bernd F.

Very happy with this one, super easy to apply and very little goes a long way. The wax base has teh advantage that it doesn't dry-out on the trop before it is properly distributed.

1 Micron is Amazing Best stopping compound i have used. Suitable for every steel, makes edges super shiny and polished in a few strokes. Lib balm packaging makes applying easy, and avoids overapplication or waste of product. My knives have never been sharper. Use coarser micron for more material removal or deburring and finer micron for finer polishes. 1 micron is great for all purpose.

Eazy to use! Applied on a actual antique barbers strop and allowed it to cure overnight and wiped away the excess. Does a fine job at 1 micron after the 400 or 800 Veneve diamond matrix hone. KnifeMaker

Thick paste Has the color of green alum oxide paste. Works well but takes a little work to get it spread on the strop.

Daniel Sargent

Decent It's a solid paste. Easy to apply (make sure to melt it in with a heat gun or hair dryer), cuts, decently, and well priced. It definitely does not cut as fast as something like Gunny Juice is Jende, but for the price it's alright. The tube it comes in is surprisingly large, so it should make good for several applications.

Best value There is a ton in the jar. Lifetime supply for a hobbyist. I bought Nanocloth strops to use with it.

Mike G.

This is probably the best product that nobody knows about. It's very affordable and works very well. It is a paste product so it never really dries so I have found it works best with balsa or basswood but it will work on leather. The first time you strop with leather some product will wipe of on your blade so use sparingly. Application is simple, take the top off and apply like Chapstick to wood of leather. No waste at all. I do not see what the diamond concentration is but it cuts and polishes as well as most compounds.
