Description

Venev Orion Series Set "Sirius" includes six 6" resin-bonded diamond stones: F80, F150, F240, F400, F800, and F1200.

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.

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.

Dimensions notation.
Monolayer solid abrasives have 3 numbers: length × width × thickness.
Single-sided abrasives with backing have 4 numbers: length × width × full thickness × thickness of abrasive.
Dual-sided abrasives have 5 numbers: length × width × full thickness × thickness of abrasive #1 × thickness of abrasive #2 (both sides)
If thickness is variable, the minimum thickness is noted.
For curved abrasives, a radius of curvature inmm is added: R40.

Metallic Binders (MMC)
  • M2-01 - Copper-tin bronze alloy.
  • MS-1 - Metal-matrix composite (MMC) - Copper-tin bronze alloy reinforced with silicon carbide.
  • MB-1 - Metal-matrix composite (MMC) - Copper-tin bronze alloy reinforced with boron carbide.
  • MS-1A - Metal-matrix composite (MMC) - Aluminum-copper alloy reinforced with silicon carbide.
Resin Binders
  • B1-10 - Boron-modified phenolic resin (BPF) composite - Made of powdered bakelite, copper additive
  • B2-01 - Boron-modified phenolic resin (BPF) composite - Made of liquid bakelite, iron additive (softer than В1-10)
  • В2-01М - Boron-modified phenolic resin (BPF) composite - Made of liquid bakelite, copper additive (softer than В2-01)
  • OSB (OCB) – A proprietary phenolic resin composite.

(OSB and OCB refer to the same binder; the difference arises from a transliteration quirk of the Cyrillic “ОСБ,” which can be rendered as either “OSB” or “OCB” in Latin script.)
