    Diamond is has very sharp corners and tends to make deep scratches. A worn DMT has had all of the high points worn off and is much smoother, but still fast. I have a 600 that I have beat to death and it's my favorite for coarse work.
    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.

    Can't find a vendor (or even a Google site) for this stone. Suggestions?
